The Sanctuary is not the sort of pub/bar to visit if you'relooking for Abba or hiphop or techno…read more It's a rock bar through and through which has a great range of music and an even better range of customers! The Sanctuary is spread over three floors with plenty of gothic decor including coffin tables to set the mood. The staff are all friendly and the drinks are resaonably priced. If you're looking for a rocking night out, then the Sanctuary won't let you down.

Don't be deceived by the name, Posh is far from high class or posh. But it is a nightclub so one…read moreout of two isn't bad. Tucked away on a back street, Posh is in the heart of Burnley's pub crawl area. Inside, the décor attempts to be posh but the sticky carpets and generally young and chavvy clientele mean it is anything but. The music is modern r and b where it all sounds the same and the drinks are expensive. They do serve some delicious milkshake cocktails which taste gorgeous and can get you in the party mood very quickly but, as with all the drinks on offer in Posh, they're expensive and service takes a while. Unfortunately for Posh, I can make just as tasty a cocktail myself at home and it's not a place I'd choose to visit for the music, atmosphere or clientele. Best left for the 18 year olds or you'll feel like an OAP in here.

I have a sore head. It's not good but it's the price you pay for a great night out. Ruby Lounge…read moretotally exceeded expectations. Me, planning, making a decision is a rare thing. My suggestion was actually a hit. I did my indecisive alterego very proud. There are many quality club nights organised by the Lost and Found name and this was no exception. Dance off, being £1 entry, sold it for me. Doubles for £3, a range of sambucas £1.50? Messy. Dance off saw a battle between three major DJs, strangerways, good vibrations and juicy DJs playing a mix of Joy Division, The Temptations and Dr Dre. Amazing combination. Ruby Lounge is renown for it's quality club nights and live music. The venue is perfect, with an adequate dance floor, a stage to match and plenty of seating on a slightly raised level for a chill out. Another great Northern Quarter location that needs to become a regular thing for me.

I think this might be a strip club. In fact I'm pretty sure. Well, it wasn't when I was in the Ruby…read moreLounge last night for a Lost and Found gig which is why I felt comfortable to take my boyf in with me. The gig was billed as The Cribs Aftershow but it was basically just a gig- most of the spectators were either in one of the four bands, looked like they should be or were girl groupies who were way too impressed with themselves that they were getting backstage. The sofas and high backed armchairs in the main bar area were nice touches, there were a few mirror balls around too. Plus velvet curtains - hello, strip club? Then you turn to the grimy stage area with the big grill up between the bands and the crowd. That said, no one went past the pillar anyway. Too cool to stand right at the front. Alright drinks prices - get some of their cheap vodka mixers or flavoured sambucas otherwise you'll run out of money quickly. After the bands they had Gareth Brooks from Xfm DJIng but we didn't end up staying.

A student-only club owned by Lancaster University Student Union. This means you can only get in if…read moreyour a student. Another thing is that the drinks are cheap and your basic student drinks. The music is generally mediocre, and the atmosphere is dead on most nights nowadays, but is booming on certain nights. Friday Fury and certain live gigs, bring the crowds from the uni, and make it a fun, albeit stuffy place. The no-drinks on the dance floor rule is heavily enforced by burly bouncers, and they are very quick to chuck people out. So that part is never fun. Can be up to £4 to get in, unless you come when the doors are open and the place is empty. Bar service is the slowest in Lancaster, and you can spend forever queuing and being pushed around when trying to order a drink on a busy night. So pick your night carefully, and have fun. Because at least you don't have old balding single guys staring at you all night.

Boring, boring, boring, boring, boring! It takes ages to queue outside of and isn't really that…read moregood when you get in there anyway! The only salvation of this club is that the staff are pretty fantastic, and the service is quick as well! The 3 stars I give is 100% due to the good quality of the service and has NO relevance to the place itself! And it's owned by Lancaster University Student Union? You'd excpect better from the student union of one of the best unis in the UK! Then again maybe I'm bias because I'm UCUM! (that's University of Cumbria, for those who didn't know).

Even if I could overcome the distinct smell of wet dog that permeates the place, the clientèle leave me feeling like an OAP. At a mere 26 years old, I must have been the oldest person in the club by far! There is a half decent selection of rock and metal music and the drinks are reasonably priced but Graffiti's has more of a feel of a youth club than a rock club.

I'm only as perturbed as I am under the illusion that finding a place that was once owned by Johnny Depp means I'm now married to him. Okay, so this particular Viper Rooms wasn't owned by Johnny Depp but it shares the same name. That is close enough for me. Now will it live up to expectations? Well actually yes it does. It's housed in a Grade II listed building and inside they've spared little expense. We're talking four bars surrounded by multiple rooms and a mad mix up of music as well. You'll get anything from disco to Hip Hop. It is beautiful, it really is. A special mention goes out the centre piece chandelier and quite awesome (not to mention comfortable) leather sofas throughout. To get you in the mood and your disco shoes raring the drinks menu will blow you away. It beats some clubs I've been to with a huge selection of cocktails, wines, fizz and beer. This is grade A stuff. It may be a little mainstream for some people's tastes but just go with the flow and enjoy the venue if nothing else.
