I have lots of fun there and the staff is wonderful…read more Security is fun to talk to and so are the bartenders. It really makes you wonder how much fun it is when the club is closed.

Peabody's has been open since 1967, wow! I lived nearby and went to an L7 show here when I lived…read moreOceanfront in Virginia Beach. I didn't frequent Peabody's since I have never been a person who loves dancing or DJs. Also, I was outside of Peabody's target demographic of 18-24 year-olds. This was during my "bitter chick rock" phase that still rears its head now and then, and one of my favorite bitter chick bands was L7! I saw their show at Peabody's on April 15, 1997. It was a great venue for this raw, bitter, loud band with a house packed and standing room only of fans trying their best to make a mosh pit. I guess Hole was my second favorite bitter chick band. Back to the L7 show. Classified as grunge, punk, and metal, I think L7 is more chick punk. Their guitarist was unavailable this night, and they replaced her with a local Va Beach chick guitarist who did a great job. The locals recognized her, I didn't. Smoking was allowed inside, and this audience was pretty aggressive for the times, with a lot of college aged guys wearing backwards baseball caps. That's fine, until the guys use their ballcaps as weapons to poke me in the forehead and face to try to keep me out of their mosh pit making range. The goal of the audience was to get to stage front. The audience even resorted to using cigarette lighters to burn each others clothes. Who does this? This show was during "The Beauty Process" tour and the setlist was great with songs from previous CDs including "L7" and other previous music. Par for the course, during "Cat-O-Nine Tails," a guy in leather bondage was brought on stage and then whipped with a whip by Donita, the lead singer. I'm confident this was just a show, and the poor guy wasn't hurt. "The Masses are Asses" is another L7 tune I like. Why no fifth star? The bouncers were interesting. They waited for patrons to make their way to the stage and for the most part, escorted the patron to the door - kicking nearly each one out. The crowd was "elbow to elbow" making it clear it was difficult to just take an overly rowdy and rough patron from the center of the crowd to kick them out. Still, the bouncers were sophomoric, and should have managed the crowd better. I'm happy to have seen L7, I'm happy my party were hurt, and I'm happy Peabody's provided a sizeable venue for an alternative show in the late 90s!

Honestly for a latin club/bar in Virginia Beach this deserves 5 stars. We went there last night and…read moreto my surprise it was actually really good. All of the clubs here are either super lame or packed with a bunch of young college kids. Omega however had a nice mix of ages and the atmosphere was great. We arrived around 11:30pm and there wasn't a line outside but it was pretty full inside, which I don't mind for a nightclub. There was a $10 cover charge for ladies and gents, not too bad. The drinks were typically priced for a club ($12 for most mix drinks). The DJ was great. I believe his name was DJ Atrevete and he played a good mix of latin music (Reggaeton, bachata, merengue, and a few hip hop songs). There were a lot of men there like some previous reviews state however it's a club...that's to be expected. I will be going back next time I'm in town.

And he keep shaking his head and I asked him again what do you mean no? And he said 07? 19?

I went here to celebrate my birthday and had a blast!…read more I love the aesthetic of the club. There were flashing lights, streamers blowing out every once in a while, along with smoke. I loved the little details too like the small fake candles decorating the flat surfaces. The dancers were cool and playful. They let my friend dance on stage. They really got the club going. Surprisingly, with everything going on, it was not hard to breathe and I wasn't feeling stuffy or hot although I danced the night away. The service was patient and quick, but the quality of the drinks were not affected. All the drinks I've had were well made and tasted like they had the perfect amount of liquor in them, not too sweet but not too strong. I love the look of the glasses they came in too. I expected plastic cups or just a regular glass cup at most since it was a club, but they really put effort into the aesthetics of the drinks as well. The DJ was lit! I loved how he not only played music that was popular right now, but he also threw in some songs from different cultures and played some throwbacks. It was a set made where there was at least a song or two for everyone to like, and luckily, I liked every song he played. I had a section and the seating was comfortable. Along with the club, it looked nice. The only thing that bothered me was that it was by the door, so it was hard to dance with people coming in and out a lot. But I wouldn't go to the dance floor either, people were crammed like sardines. Besides the size and layout of the club, overall, I really enjoyed myself and will definitely come back. I recommend everyone to try this place out. I'm sure you'll like the music and drinks too!

My friend ordered the Cuban and it was HUGE and looked delicious. Served with crispy steak fries. Yum. Her portion was also huge so she ate half her sandwich and took the rest home. I chose the breakfast burrito loaded with cheese, eggs, ham and pico and served with breakfast potatoes. The burrito was HUGE and I ate like half and a little more and was full for hours. Really good price and great portion. Service was excellent and they weren't very busy despite the Neptune Festival weekend so, we were able to sit on the patio and then see the back area (which was closed) and get a feel for when they have music or events. Very friendly people and very cool vibes and decor with an excellent menu. Definitely going to have to come back here for music and try to sit in back. It's huge - it goes back like half the city block.

I think there are more people with dreadlocks in Hammerheads than there are in Jamaica. And I like…read morethat, maybe just because I have dreads, but I find something enticing in that. There are not many places where you can hear hardcore rap on the oceanfront. In fact, I would say Hammerheads is the only place. So if you want to hear Nikki Ménage, Lil Wayne and Lil Wayne & Nikki Ménage non-stop, then this is the place to be. Aside from those two distinguishing features, Hammerheads is like any other bar on The Block: tiny and crowded. There's nothing spectacular here, just a place to go and get drinks. Still a locals favorite (mostly frequented during the winter when the parking is free and so is the cover), Hammerheads attracts a huge summer crowd of just turned 21s and other rowdy drunk folk. My highest regards to the bartenders and waitresses who manage the huge crowds needs with lightning speed.

If I could give this place a negative five, I sure would…read more There have been times where I have been stereotyped in the past, but this "nightspot" definitely takes the cake as the worst. My experience with this place was over even before I got in. Me and a couple of friends wanted to check this place out as we were out of town. I went to have my ID checked by one of the bouncer, who examined it for nearly a minute. The bouncer asked that I confirm the address on my ID two times. After I gave him that, he asked for ANOTHER ID (ridiculous at this point). After giving him another ID for ANOTHER MINUTE, he asked for my address again. After I gave him the address again, he told me that he could not let me in, and insisted on keeping my original ID (which was my license). I had to get a police officer to come over and get my ID from the bouncer, so he can give it back to me. Even the police officer said that the picture on the ID looks like me. Absolutely appalling the things I had to go through with this bouncer. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone at all. It's obvious that this place discriminates on the patrons that try to get in. This was definitely one of the downfalls of my trip to Virginia.

Understanding what you are getting into before entering Bugatti's is going to make or break your…read moreexperience. If you go in with a good attitude wanting nothing more than dancing, you're going to have a good time. I wanted to play tourist, so I went solo to see what the place had to offer. This is my story. I paid $5 to get in on a very slow phase 2 opening night. No line. Friendly bouncer. Based on reviews, I was expecting techno. But, to be more specific, the DJ was playing house classics remixed with a future house sound, and he even had an electric guitar that he riffed over some bass lines that definitely added some depth to his set. You can plug in these tracks to YouTube to get an idea of the sound that particular night: -Ghost Town DJ's - My Boo (Tom Budin Remix) -Crystal Waters - Gypsy Woman ( Jérémy Maha Remix) FUTURE HOUSE We are in a pandemic so there were about 5 people on the dance floor at a time. Thirty people in the entire place. Everyone was definitely a house head. Vibe was pinnacle. Dress code was relatively lax, I saw dudes in shorts, sneakers, and tshirts. This might be due to the lack of business that night. I have yet to stumble on any official dress code so this is my two cents: If you're a dude and you want to minimize headaches at the door, I would recommend wearing some kind of khaki pants, collared shirt and avoiding sneakers. That's my approach. Take it or leave it. Five stars because this is the spot if you need to take care of that dance festival rave itch you need scratched while you are in Norfolk, VA.

They suck, cramped. Just to dance with chicks that are boo'd up. Drinks expensive. 60 dollar buy in…read morewithout membership. No tap beers.
