Pretty legendary by Nottingham standards. Always worth checking out if you're in town and fancy a (not so quiet) drink. Some of the acts that they've had in to play upstairs are now stadium bands.

Do people ever refer to this place as 'The Boedga'? I don't.

Hottest bar staff.

I saw a hot ladies pants in that place once.  She did a limbo and flashed.  She didn't care.  That only added to the hotness.  = I like the place.

The bar downstairs is loud, obnoxious, poorly kept, badly laid out and overpopulated by a garralous clientelle hammered on badly made drinks. That's some people's bag, not mine. It's also massively successfull though, so at least for some demographic the equation balances and is hence guaranteed to be attended on even the quietest Tuesday night in town.

Its legendary for its gigs and I myself have caught some excellent performances, albeit ruined by the also legendarily abismal quality of their sound system. How can a venue with such musical prowess overlook such an important factor??

A true institution in the Nottingham music scene, but I can't help but feel that it's always fallen slightly short of its true potential.
