Advantages: Huge club, great atmosphere Disadvantages: prices
...Ciao, and when I got the email saying it was on the site, I just had to post my op!
If Alcohol is my God then the Works (Kingston) is my Church. The Works is located on St. James Street Kingston, very near all the shops and the Kingston Pubs. It costs £5 to enter through the door, unless you have membership. The club is open 7 nights a week, 9pm – 3am.
There are several theme nights at the Works. Wednesday and Monday are student nights ...

...out and socialise. One of the nightclubs in Kingston is 'The Works.' When I was slightly younger, about four or five years ago I used to frequently come here, although nowadays I prefer Oceana, Essence or McClusky's. I recently visited the works agin for the first time in a long while and was actually quite impressed by it.

Advantages: Huge place, huge dance floor, good music Disadvantages: Security is OTT, drinks spilled on dancefloor

There was nothing odd and strange about them, in casual gear, just four guys looking for a night out. Anyway, I was next and was asked to produce some form of ID. I showed him my drivers ...

Advantages: Food avalible, lots of space, sheltered smoking area, good seating Disadvantages: Terrible DJ, bouncers with bad attitudes, slow bar(depending on cleavage or good looks!?)
The bar: good spirited doormen, nice chilled atmosphere, reasonable drinks before 1000. Music was RnB although repetative at times was a great atmosphere. Club: good venue, lots of space various bars, good atmosphere and a food court. However the DJ played very repetative music, continually cutting off songs like insomnia without mixing the tunes in, watching people stop dead as he cut tunes was at first amusing but became annoying, the only escape ...
