I stopped by last night. The floors were sticky as glue... so much that you had to apply force to move your feet. This place is what you'd call the typical club for college goers. I am in my 30s so the crowd here doesn't mesh with people of my age. However, I did notice the more mature crowd hanging out at the bar and the younger crowd near the bathroom and closer to the dance floor. The music was pretty good. So many drunk patrons who could barely hold their composure. I don't think there's a dress code for this establishment. Guys were dressed in caps, hoodies, sneakers, etc. There was a long line for the women's restroom. The toilets take up 90% of the stalls. Three toilets for the entire female portion of the club. I've been to Fort Collins before and never heard of this place. I guess it's because I hang with the dirty 30 crowd. Drinks are cheap and strong - and I'm not complaining about that at all. Perhaps that's why the patrons look like they can barely keep their eyes open. This is a pretty big venue. There are several bars. I was unaware that Ft Collins had a club of this size. Not bad for a small town. I felt like I was one of the smallest people in the room. I'm 5'3 and everyone seemed 6'0! If you're into the college crowd, this is definitely the place for you. I did enjoy myself being that I was with my friend and her friend. I wouldn't mind returning here once in a blue moon but definitely not frequently. read more

Asked for vodka redbull and the bartender gave me a vodka rockstar. I said no thanks and they kicked me out. Bartenders lack a brain here, keep that in mind. read more

If I could do negative reviews I would. This is not a place women are safe or should go to..... wink wink there are other bars in the square owned by the same person. There are things going on in these bars that is heavily not okay and they are getting away with it. The hospitals, doctors, investigators, and the city is all aware of these issues and they won't do anything about it. If you are a women stay away from this bar if you want to remember your night and wake up in the morning and see your bank account as charges you only payed for. Do better. Women deserve to be able to go out to a bar on a holiday or weekend night, it's way too normalized and it's sick. read more

Me and a trans male friend waited in line for the bathroom. During my turn it was fine but as soon as it was my trans friends turn the employees tried to kick down the stall door. While standing in front of the door i was punched in the face. I wasn't kicked out but i left anyways. Anyone who supports this business is transphobic read more

Bouncers were violent when kicking me out. I'm a smaller sized girl. Got kicked out for being drunk.. at a bar... with 100 other drunk people. If you've seen the Stanford prison experiment- the bouncers are like the guards in that movie lol read more

I'd say it wasn't my favorite vibe and never really has been. Boring, bartenders were nice. Men were ugly

Im new to havin fun at clubs, I was invited out for Halloween and my end review is the club is FUCKIN AWESOME. Im a social butterfly so you can understand my excitement when this awesome man named Kai (Im sorry if I spelt ur name wrong, I should've asked) started talking to us, he not only helped out with questions but he joined us and made my night so much better. The bartender that was located closer to the DJ was also makin my first night one of the greatest I'll ever chat abt, I asked for recommendations dude his shots and pouring skills are really GOOD. Him their staff are the best! read more

Doesn't take Colorado state app for ID anymore and they were no signs. Waited in line for an hour only to get turned away at the door. At least post a sign when the line is that long so people don't waste their time. 1/10 read more

Went out with a group of friends this past weekend, was in line and decided to not give this place my business as a really tall bouncer was harassing a woman yelling at her saying "terrible mother." read more

Usually I have a great time, This time, the piece of shit bouncer decided to throw me to the ground when I was leaving. To give context, my girl and I are talking to the bartender, and the bounce grabs my shoulders and throws me to the ground telling me that im not leaving yet. I tried to explain to him that I am closing out but he proceed to shove me to the ground and yell that I am not leaving. This man gave didn't listen to a single word I said and forced me out of the door.There was no reason to force me out of the building. I informed him that I was leaving, and had no issue that the bar was closing. I would advise everyone to not visit this bar as the employees do not have a shred of respect among them and should be revered among the lowest of humanity. read more

The music was good. I liked the changing color lights and the hanging lights around the bar. I also liked the lounge area with the bedazzled red leather couch. Overall we had a really fun experience. Apperantly they remodeled. read more

The Rec Room - people sitting at the bar - Dance Clubs Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

Despite being the two most sober people in line, me and my girlfriend were both denied at the door for being "too intoxicated", aa they let several people in who could barely walk. I've never felt more grimy at any bar in Fort Collins than I have at The Rec Room. The floors are stickier than fucking frat toilet and I would not recommend if you want to have a safe night. What a shithole read more

Hey, was wanting to buy this bar, please contact me for more details, reviews alone make me worried for the idea, but I see potential for this bar. read more

Absolutely disgusting bar, bathroom was flooded and we were expected to step in the sewer water are you kidding me? How has this place remained open? read more

The Rec Room - This bar is absolutely disgusting, flooded bathroom and no one cared to clean it, absolutely ridiculous!! Health concerns at this place! - Dance Clubs Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

I get this is a college bar, but this is the actual worst bar I've ever been to. The pungent smell of human vomit is so overwhelming and vile that my eyes were watering the whole time but I was reassured by a regular it's just something "you have to get used to". Not only that, but your shoes literally stick to the floor from all of the questionable liquids throughout. I'm pretty sure you could come in here with a HAZMAT suit on and you still would not be ok. No. Thank. You. read more

If you don't want to be groped by staff DO NOT COME HERE. My friends and I had troubles with the bouncers coming in, they harassed the guys in our group barely letting them in because they had black pants on. Once inside the floor was stickier than a child at Chuck E. Cheese. When it came to shots they were priced higher than a jet plane and us girls got extra which was cool at first until staff kept trying to feel us up. Our guys got served cola shots instead of alcohol and were all pretty sure we saw a few teens in there. If you want to party with a bunch of grabby meat heads and little girls this is the place for you. read more

This was such a bad experience if you look decently attractive at all don't recommend going here a few groups of guys before me got turned down but they were totally coherent read more

Wow. I can't believe how many people agree with me about this place. Yes, the floors are disgustingly sticky. It's hard to dance with your shoes stuck to the floor. I don't think they've ever cleaned them. Yes, the employees are rude. I'll add two more things: (1) Mixed drinks are very watered down or maybe they don't pour enough liquor in them. I need twice as many for the same effect. Rip off! (2) The DJs aren't very good. But...we don't have a lot of options in FoCo, unfortunately. Someone could make a fortune if he/she opened a club with the Bondi formula, but on a much bigger scale. read more

If you go with your partner please do not go. Security touched my girlfriend inappropriately and then decided to blame me for causing an issue for her to tell me that she felt inappropriately touched. Just an FYI. read more

I wish I could leave a lower review. I experienced blatant homophobia tonight. One of the men in my group was called a homophobic slur, and after consistent shoving by the one who started it all, my friends got kicked out. The bouncers did not try to diffuse the situation at all, and kicked out only the queer presenting people. This was such a disappointment by the staff of rec room, and I hope one day they can train their staff on how to recognize oppression and violent acts towards homophobia. read more

Great place to come....! Ev3n in the snow I came... z security and an amazing experience coming in,,, Kyle B, Steve B, Brook L, Mark L ?! Great team..... I felt comfortable and.... secure will definitely come back with friends.1 read more

F*ck this entire establishment. F*** the owner, his mom, the entire staff and anyone that cares about him/her. I was denied entry because I have hand and neck tattoos. None of which are offensive or gang related. I wanted to spend money here and enjoy a good night out with friends. I saw multiple other people with neck tattoos walk right in with no problem. I hope the owner of this bar gets herpes and dies a slow painful death. read more

rec room is one of the MOST unprofessional bar I have been to in my entire life. They kicked me out for being drunk, what else do you do other than drink at a bar?? Never coming to this establishment ever again. Would give 0 stars if possible. read more

The Rec Room - a man standing on top of a car - Dance Clubs Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

This was one of my favorite bars in fort collins before being blatantly discriminated against by the staff that works there. My friend and I were brutally ejected from the bar by bouncers after trying to safely use the bathroom there and faced aggressive homophobia from the staff. I have spent countless dollars and hours at this bar and its disappointing to see this type of discrimination displayed at this business. Don't waste your money or your time on this establishment that so clearly is not willing to accommodate others. read more

Its hard to start describing this establishment. There is a putrid mixture of piss and vomit that litters the floor, but at least there's dancing right?! And lets not get into how absolutely rude the bouncers can be. The restrooms here should have been enough to condemn the building themselves!!! It's free to get in so by all means check it out! But once you realise how revolting The Rec Room is I'll see you at Bondi with everyone else! read more

The bouncers are on an absolute POWER TRIP by kicking people out. I've gotten kicked out twice while I've only had a couple of drinks. Their reasoning was that I was too drunk? Their staff are the most rude men I've ever met. I'm usually grateful for bouncers keeping people safe! Opposite feeling here-they kick girls alone off to the street for no reason. read more

They kicked me out even though I had only had a few drinks. I caused no issues and only talked to one person and they decided I was to much of an issue. if your trying to have a good time go to Bandi read more

Fuck this shit. My boyfriend gets kicked out every time even though he is probably the most sober one there. Just because he doesn't want to be completely messed up and try to get with every drunk girl there that's a problem? No vagina means you get kicked out so good luck if you have a dick. Fuck this place. Girls are usually so drunk they can't walk but if you have "sleepy eyes" even if you aren't drinking you are a problem. read more

Yes the guy with the baseball tee the night of 4/4 was the worst. Came up to me and asked me if I was drunk, when I asked for a beer. Acted like a degenerate when serving me. For a bar that is recognized locally, I'd expect better service from this guy. Especially after I tipped $3 on a $9 tab. read more

I witnessed a weird interaction when I tried to go here. I got turned away for being in a costume for the Tour de Fat event, but the guy behind me, who was dark skinned and nicely dressed was turned away FOR WEARING RED PANTS!!!! Apparently these have a "gang" affiliation.... Nevertheless, I was stunned. Afterwards, I was standing nearby talking to a friend and we watched the bouncer let a white kid with red shorts walk in with no issue!!! Not sure if that was a racist thing or not, but the place seems kinda shady. read more

started the night quite late but went here after my friends and I had one drink at a different bar. I went here before and danced a little wasn't a big fan of it because of a very touchy and pushy crowd of young college kids. anyway my friend I went with last time liked it so we went back. Now we took my room mate with me and he does have dark skin. we all went in together and were standing at the bar casually when a door guy not even 3 minutes later came and kicked my room mate out for being too drunk. and we were just standing there waiting to get to the bar. now someone tell me that that wasn't because of his skin tone..... never going back here again screw that! read more

NYE I bought a couple of bottles to share...when I asked the bouncer to send our server over he started to push me and told me to sit down. I told him to take his hands off of me, which he did not do so I asked another bouncer for the manager, Chase. Chase wouldn't take any action against the bouncer so I requested the police. Chase spoke with them first and I was arrested for trespassing. Fuxk these guys read more

Truly ridiculous place. One of my friends got thrown out for being "too wobbly and drunk." As soon as i asked an employee why, I was grabbed without any question and escorted out. When I tried to talk to a supervisor, nothing I said mattered and I was given a bs answer with no intention to listen. I was touched harshly with no reason because I simply questioned an action that a bouncer took. This place is a joke with bouncers who dont care about customers, there is no way to talk to management to get help. They grab you anyway they want for any reason they want to be true. Garbage service. read more

Much like the other reviews I was thrown out because I was "too drunk" I got into an altercation with the bouncer and he threatened to break my pinky. lol. What a bitch. He didn't do anything of course. This would never happen in Pyongyang. Bad music. Bad people. pretty good service for how busy it is though. 2/10 would not recommend to a friend. Would probably return just to get thrown out by the bouncers again. read more

tonight was my friends 21st birthday. we were having a great night and decided to head to Rec room. we had a few drinks at other bars but we're only just beginning our night. my friend is blind and deaf in one of his ears. rec room employees kicked us out because my friend was "too drunk" although he was completely fine and only appeared drunk because of his disabilities. even after telling the employees that he only looked that way because he is blind and deaf, they did not care and kicked us out. IT WAS HIS 21st BIRTHDAY. He actually cried and it ruined all of our nights as we had to head home. really sad that a college bar is so not accepting of people with disabilities. I hope you guys feel good about kicking someone out because they are blind. read more

I have been going to Rec room every week for 2 months as an international student. Last night, I had a RACIST incident with the security. He asked for my passport even I gave him my national ID and national driving license. Then he suggested that he could not let me in without a passport. Then another British International student suggested that she did not bring her passport either and gave him her driving license. He said it is fine because she is from Europe. We were all like "WTF?!" and thanks to other European students, we were able to give him a geography lesson that Turkey is in fact located in Europe. So he had no other choice to let me in. Yet, it is outrageous and unacceptable that they differentiate people based on their passports. That's so upsetting! Such ignorance and prejudice... read more

This place is so fuckin ratchet, but it's home. Got a literal $25 bottle last night for like $275, but yolo we were wylin. Definitely will invest in this place later in life. Excellent corporate structure, and they give you the keys to be your own boss. Bartenders are fucking douchebags, but they're OUR douchebags. I would not recommend ever walking in here if you're looking for a chill night, cause everyone is just so wicked blacked. Overall, it's a dirty cesspool but I highly recommend. read more

My friend was groped right in front of a security guard as soon as we walked in...the security apologized to my friend, but did nothing about the guy. read more

This club is extremely racist. I don't usually go there because of the extremely long line and their (alleged) bad reputation but I went there after work to join a friend who was already in. I stood in this long line behind a biracial couple, a white girl and a black man. After about 30 minutes in line, it was our turn to get in. The bouncer said that the guys in front of me could not get in because his black jeans were against dress code. So after the couple argued they left. Then he said that I could not go in because my black slacks are against dress code! I was wearing a nice shirt with black slacks and dress shoes! I didn't want to argue so I said I would wait on the side for my friend to come out and we will leave. As I am waiting, I observed multiple people with black pants and leggings go in and then he stopped three black guys from going in again. To the first he said his black pleather jacket was against dress code (he was a clean shaven guy wearing an orange crew neck underneath and khaki slacks with dress shoes), to the second he said his hair which was in dreads was against dress code and made another excuse for their friend. So one of the guys and me waited on the side to see if he would let in another guy in line with a black leather jacket and unfortunately he totally did and another girl with a leather jacket. It took me a second to realize the pattern here and most of you know that I am never one to pull the race or gay card. But they made it pretty obvious that the "image" they were trying to portray with their "dress code" had more to do with skin tone than anything else. One of the black guys and I stood there for another 30 minutes just to confirm our suspicion of their prejudice and sure enough the only people he stopped were people of color and made up excuses about their "dress code" then let in white people with the exact same clothing. In my mind they have joined the likes of Chick Fil-A and drunken monkey and I will here on never choose to spend my money or time there. read more
