Studio 41

Always had a laugh here, cocktails were good and cheap, the upstairs bar had a good vibe when they finally opened it.

This review is based on my experiences of Monday nights at the Studio 41 nightclub. Monday nights are called ‘Soap’ and represent one of the best value nights out you can have in the city. Studio 41 opens its doors officially at 10pm on a Monday night and stays open until 2am on Tuesday morning. As this night is rather busy it is advisable to get there early to avoid the massive queue that starts forming at about 9.30pm.
Entry is £3 when I turn up before 10pm however I am not sure how much it is after 11pm but I am sure it is not more than £6. If you keep your wristband from the week before it allows you £1 off your entry fee. So the cheapest entry you can get is £2.
The club itself is huge and offers 3 floors of rooms that aim to suit everyone. The third floor is rather cramped so I aim to restrict myself to the 1^st and 2^nd floors where there is more space to enjoy yourself and its quicker to get served at the bar.
Drinks: Vodka and any mixer on a Monday night at Soap is only £1 and they don’t measure the spirits. Depending on the way you look at it this is either a good or a bad thing. At the beginning of the night they make 100’s of Vodka and NRG drinks that are quite weak but there £1 so who cares, if you catch yourself at the bar from 1am onwards there tends to be more Vodka in your cup. Any drink until 11pm is £1.50 and after that drinks are only £2 until 2am which represents very good value for money.
Staff: Studio 41 is one of the only places where the bouncers are actually quite nice. The bar staff and toilet attendants are equally as friendly. The atmosphere in the club is always buzzing and I have never had any trouble. In the time I have been going there has only been one fight that was stopped extremely quickly by the security staff.
Overall Studio 41 on a Monday evening is a good night. You can go out with £20 and go back with £5 if your careful. There are taxis outside for when you stagger down the stairs. The drinks are cheap, the musics good, the atmosphere is electric. A brilliant cheap way to spend a Monday night.

Lets be honest if you know this place, you also know it as Girls And boYs –GAY on a saturday night.
I’ve been going here years. Tends to happen when all your mates suddenly come out! not a bad club at all. if you are skinto, then go bfore 9:45, its free before then £5 after till 10:30 and £8 after that. cocktails are good for money here. £8 — 10 for two. not bad when they don’t measure the spirits.
Good music till the early hours of the morning.
