Fab is one of those places that you know you shouldn't really enjoy but you just can't help it. Dark and grimey it should be a place to avoid but it's got a great atmosphere and decor that is guaranteed to make any film buff smile. Fab is in no way overpriced and Saturday night is generally pretty busy. On the downside, the toilets could do with a clean and some of the bar staff could smile a little but other than that it's a lot of fun and definitely worth a visit.

Fab used to be much better when it was the Pig and Whistle it was a lot busier. This could be due to the fact that the doorstaff are idiots or could be that there are much less students in Leeds since they came up with this concept.
The drinks are expensive but you wont have any trouble getting to the bar as its usually dead. In fact Id say there are more bouncers than customers in the place.

A modern museum pub dedicated to pop culture and science fiction. Instead of a Sunday lunch you can fill up on space raiders, dib dabs and love hearts. Or a pot noodle if you fancy something home cooked! I have got many a drunken belly ache from these mixes but it’s well worth it. A fantastic place though a bit pricey. There are drinks promotions on early most nights which is just as well for me. Large dance floor with plenty of seating available. The bar staff are friendly but none of the DJs seem to pay much attention to requests. It’s a lively place to hang out with friends after work, or alternately it’s open till about 2. Also, it has retro and science fiction movie nights on Sundays with free popcorn. Best night is Saturday, which offers quite a variety in music and it’s a brilliant way to start the night.

Fab is a modern day museum!Love it and the cheapest night is Monday (Shows how little I work) by far. Plus all the music is 90's tunes.

Fab is a really cool place to go, its kooky and fun. The drinks are cheap during the week, 1.50 a bottle, the music is really good, from rock to retro, best nights definately Thurs and Sat
