Hello!

Me and 3 girlfriends were dressed as rabbits in line for the club. We were just chatting amongst ourselves whilst we waited and the security came up to us after about 20 minutes and said very rudely and dismissively "Take your fancy dress ups somewhere else. Go somewhere else with your costumes."

Not sure if he knew he was on Oxford St where Drag Queens and queer expression is a part of our culture but sure.

We respectfully left the line but the whole experience was very disappointing as I was with my cousins who'd only been to a gay club once before and as a gay man I was looking forward to showing them this place. Not sure if them being women was also a part of the problem but I'm seeing that theme come up a lot in these reviews.

I'm also seeing a lot of reviews complaining about the demeanour of the security guards here so perhaps it's time for a performance review.

Edit to respond:

Hi Michael,

We were not a hens/bucks/work function party, nor were we asked if we were. If we’d been unruly or disruptive in line then I’d understand but if you check the security cameras you’d see we were waiting patiently and respectfully. It’s clear the comfort of the majority of your patrons is not the reason we were rudely ejected from the line by your security (you also didn’t address the needlessly rude way we were spoken to by them unprovoked either) but I’m glad to see you’re doing your best and I truly hope it works out for you.

Kind Regards,
Sebastian

Palms is a cozy bar. Ended up there on a Sunday night, fun time with dragshows, eclectic crowd. Drinks were not so good, but the staff was friendly, and the shows were fun.

Great bar, I was resting my legs on the bin as others had, a security guard pushed my legs off, told me I was giving an attitude with my face, asked if I would like to leave so I did because it didn’t sound like a suggestion. I’m sorry that what I did was wrong but the bearded security guard could have asked me to stop instead of touching me without my
Permission. Great bar but maybe that guard should find another job maybe at a pokies idk
