We booked an area for my mates 30th and were told 5 days before the party and only after lots of hassling that they had actually sold it...So I wouldn't count on going there for a while - let's hope the new owners are a bit more organised

Without doubt one of the most unpleasant bar/club experiences of my life. I was at Nectar on Saturday night for a friend's birthday party and arrived to the find a jam-packed nightclub in the middle of summer without a single fan in sight, nevermind air-conditioning. People were literally standing around sweating into their drinks. Staff refused to open windows/doors for ventilation and it took over 20 minutes to get served at the bar. All this after being made to pay to get in before 10pm despite being on the guest list. I'd been there before and had a below-average night when it first opened, but I can assure you I will never visit again...

Nectar has a divine interior, very versatile in function and decor. Proving to be a mission impossible on the drinks front, but with a little patience you soon get served. The bar staff are a pleasant bunch and do beam their beady eyes if you have downed one too many. You could say this place is as sweet as Nectar.

This place is horrendous - due to the really rude and arrogant staff. We were met with bar staff downing shots and ignoring us, then offering a blank stare when asking to be served. Our friends were genuinly met at the door by "what do you want" by this thai lady who was bar manager for the night. We had been hired to DJ for the night, and were told the turntables had no needles (erm, a bit important i think), so we arranged for replacements. Then the mixer didnt work, and the turntable had no earth connection and a bare exposed live wire cable - breaching health and safety. The speakers were knackered as well. Then when we pointed out the safety concerns about the cabling we were told to shut up or GET OUT - then got kicked out by the bounder - leaving the bar with no music!! What a bunch of fools - they have no idea how to run a business, we oursleves diverted 47 people away due to such arrogance and will never go back.

"it looks absolutely fantastic from the outside. The builders must have been working there little cotton socks off to produce such a massive change at such a speed. Maybe they were on drugs?"
