Advantages: Great night out Disadvantages: Gets very crowded, long waits for bar later
Minskys is a hilarious place for an evening out. Especially if you're in a big group. I'd advise people to buy tickets in advance for Fri and Sat night and get there early to ensure you get a good place to stand near the stage. The music played all night is very cheesy with lots of seventies and eighties. The acts on stage are drag queens who are really good and usually do a bit of a variety act. Be warned though don't go if you're easily offended!

Advantages: A great laugh Disadvantages: Sometimes gets too crowded
Minsky's is one of the few Cardiff Clubs that's encourages the party vibe, the DJ works on getting the audience dancing and singing along to cheesy songs such as YMCA and Abba and such like in between the extraordinary Drag Queen shows that Minky's has become famous for. The clientele always seems to be a very mixed bunch ranging from Office parties, Hen/Stag nights to a few freinds just out for a night on the town and the dress code is quite relaxed ... ...(but the DJ being a friend of mine had a quiet word with the doormen who then let me in with no questions).
The main attraction of Minsky's is the Drag Shows with the regular appearance of Marcia (my favourite) and Keri Dupree. The content of these shows can be quite risque at least so this club is not for the faint-hearted, and more often than not when I leave there I have such an aching face from all the laughing.
The drinks are reasonably priced ...

Advantages: Funky Disadvantages: Bit dismal inside
Although seen as a gay club Minskys is cool whatever you're sexuality.
My first experience was that of going there for a charity male strip night and it's one of the funkiest nights i've ever had.
Situated in the heart of Cardiff Minskys is easy to get to and from and is generally inexpensive to get in and when buying drinks.
Look out for special nights but most nights theres cabaret from acts such as Miss Kitty who gets the whole place jumping ...
