A small inconspicuous alleyway next to the Royale Burger joint on Long St leads you up a long flight of stairs to one of Cape Town's most down to earth and eclectic clubs. The setting resembles something more of a 70s lounge and their varied music nights emulate a house party kind of vibe. They have a reasonable priced entrance fee and drinks, expect the weekend parties to be really full and busy.
