Very friendly and nice security and bouncers. Always helpful and give a warm welcome when we visit. I suggest if you want a cool night out to have drinks or party with good music then visit Vanilla Lounge. Awesome vibe.

Your music system won’t even allow us to request songs. We were the only ones there and we couldn’t even play the songs we wanted. If you don’t accommodate everyone you should let us know so that we don’t come.

I wouldn't recommend the place to anyone. Was there one night (first time) and lost my cellphone through pickpocket. Most people are not there to have fun, but for opportunities to steal your belongings.

Pick-pocketing is rife in this bar. I think the bouncers work in cohorts with the muggers.
