oops I meant to rate the Scala as a 5 but got a bit trigger happy previously with only 3 - so here, I meant a 5!

I went to the Scala for Prologue on the 9th Feb and I have to say for a venue I didn't know much about I was suitably impressed. It's pretty big and all the staff were really nice which makes a change from most clubbing experiences. I had a top night and am looking forward to many a night out there in 2008 -Come on the Scala!

Horrible, horrible, horrible! This place is a dump. The clientele are mad and chavvy. I got assaulted by a crazy girl in that club (no provocation at all) the bouncers let her run away, refused to call ambulance or police. Kicked me out of the club bleeding and badly injured. Do not go here. If you do its at your own risk.

I haven't been to the Scala for a few years now but I guess it hasn't changed much. I've had a few (good) nights out on Fridays. The music was quite cheesy on the top floor, some crap 80s, the main room was pop, rock and indie and the last room had some DJ playing house.


I remember it was good fun, as others mentioned in reviews. It was free to get in before 10pm and the drinks were really cheap.
The crowd was quite mixed, gays and heteros and a friendly atmosphere. I would recommend Scala if you're after some commercial music and a cheap, fun night out. If you are into the hardcore clubbing scene, of course this is not the place.

I tend to go Scala on a Friday night specifically because of Popstarz and for me it's a great laugh. Okay I appreciate a lot of people who go out clubbing won't neccessarily be interested in your more mainstream pop, RnB and rock, but if you are stuck for something to do on a Friday night it's a great place to be.


The staff are friendly as well as the people you meet there and if you are gay/lesbian it's a great place to meet guys/girls. If you are a hardcore clubber I wouldn't recommend Scala but if you're up for a laugh, then this is one of the best places to be.

Scalais a great club! It's for the indie kids of any age and it's about the music and the drinking and the making friends and lots more. It's about having a good time.



If you love indie and alternative, Scala is a great club. That's what the main floor concetrates on. There are other dancefloors which concentrate on 80's and pop (the Trash Room) or Motown and choice R'n'B (The Love Lounge) but it's the atmosphere that does it. Everyone is so friendly.

I think that Scala's a place for all under-age teenagers to go to - I know of enough 14-17 year olds that club there. Scala really need to get a proper door policy!

I went to the Scala last Saturday to Desire and I thought that the place was complete shit!



To start with it was advertised as having Goldie and Andy C playing but neither of them were anywhere to be seen (so the £20 entry fee wasn't justifiable). Also, it was advertised at £13 entry and we ended up having to pay £20 each! The place was a complete joke and the woman @ the ticket booth was so rude and sarcastic to me that another member of staff had to intervene because of her behaviour! Scala was also full of underage kids and never got more than 1/2 full.



I can't believe how wrong they got it, I spoke to more than one person who had been led to believe that the night was Funky House when it was obviously D'n'B. To be honest, the list of shoddy things at Scala goes on and on, there was the misconduct of the staff, the false advertising...need I go on?



I had heard good things about Scala prior to this but after my experience I'd encourage those thinking of going to Desire to save their money and go elsewhere.
