stumathers Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Hi, think it closes around 1am, there is usually a queue outside when most of the bars are closing. the music is mainly house music though there are one off nights with different tastes catered for. the people there are mainly the young and the glamerous and the drink/food prices are quite expensive but all in all its worth a visit.

Duffer Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Its ok but it can be really pretentious, having said that i have had some good nights in there. I havent been for a while but last time i went it was a Friday night and was absolutley packed!! It took ages to get served and you couldnt move at all. Not really my thing.

amazonsam69 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 I like it at the weekends, cos u can chill out downstairs (not 2 busy), or dance and be mental upstairs...The only thing I hate is the toilet attendant with perfume, paper towels etc. I feel guilty for not leavin a tip. Do they also have an attendant in the gents? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or alternatively, you could follow suit, clear your throat and then deposit what you've just cleared into his little tray, either way I think they'll get the message about their attitutde!

noseyrosie Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 The lady in the Leadmill on monday very kindly went 'HAIRBRUSH?' to me. I said 'what, have i got one or do i need one?' and she just repeated 'HAIRBRUSH' in a think Carribbean accent. Well! How insulted was I! It's tousled, I'll have you know, stinky perfume lady!
