Reviews
Great venue. You order drinks and food from your table. It's very good table service. They have some great acts on too. Location is a bit of a walk out of town as parking nearby is a difficult.
As a small intimate venue it allows you to get close to the performers. Good sound. It is a good venue with very friendly staff. Great system for ordering drinks and food, table service. My only concerns were the performance we went to see started late so were left waiting for a while, but appreciate these things happen. Spent a lot on drinks whilst waiting so it would be good if the urinals in the men's toilet were actually in use. Long queues for the one cubical still in use. Please can this be sorted.
Our visit to The Glee Club was our first, and a late bit of inspiration for something to do on a Saturday night in Nottingham. On arrival, the bartender was polishing the glass front doors, and apologised, didn't need to as it was quite nice to see that the staff cared about the appearance of the venue she stopped what she was doing and opened them both for us, and lead us in to a lovely bar area. We had a speciality gin and ginger ale, which the bartender brought over to our table. She was very lovely, polite and chatty. We queued to gain entry to the performance area, and although we booked tickets we couldn't book where we wanted to sit, so I spoke to the girl allocating seats/tables, and requested that we were not on the front row, to which she politely laughed and said "don't worry I've put you a few rows back" We booked the tickets and a pizza deal. On sitting at our table, my partner asked me if I could ask a member of staff when the food would arrive, which I never got the chance to do, as the food arrived! The pizzas were very hot and very thin and crispy .......mmmm delicious. We hadn't ordered any drinks with the food, and did so at the table using the bar app table QR code, and our drinks arrived 2....... yes, just TWO minutes later, phenomenal service. The view of the stage was great, the compere was very good and the three comedians were amazing, they did their job, in that they were very funny. We saw the bartender that had originally greeted us when we arrived at the club on the stairs as we were leaving, she smiled and said "have a goodnight" I told her "we had an fantastic time, thank you" All in all, we couldn't recommend Nottingham Glee Club highly enough. There are 3 car parks close by the venue. The Glee Club was very well presented, clean, tidy and cosy, the staff were all lovely, friendly and very helpful, the food and drinks were great and delivered to the table very promptly. There is NOTHING The Glee Club Nottingham could have done better, our evening was superb. Well done, and a big "thankyou" to ALL of the staff who made us feel welcome, we will most definitely return. Edit 6/8/2022 Just got home after our second night at the Glee Club Nottingham. There really isn't anything else to add from my first review. The staff must be your greatest asset, as they really make the night amazing, well done all at Glee Club.
Saw live music here. Very strange having table service throughout the support act. Rather messed with the atmosphere. Probably the tables and stuff work for a comedy night but really they could just remove tables and chairs for that matter for a music event and the venue would improve dramatically. Also heard one of your members of staff say something really derogatory and insulting to another member of staff about a woman who was asking him about food. You get an extra star for having Kristin Hersh on or I'd have only given the place 2 stars.
Staff and service was brilliant, ordering via the QR code on the table is really easy and straightforward. The food was great quality and a good price for what you received. Would definitely return!
I have been to Glee club 3 times twice for comedians once for a drag queen. This review is bases purely upon the facilities of Glee Nottingham not the performers. All staff have been superb every time I have been. Zero complaints, I commend all the staff there. One problem and it is a large one is the poor visabilty from some seats due to beams. These things happen and are necessary for large rooms like this. However some theaters use the seat layout to negate this issue Glee does not and could improve upon it. The drinks while obviously marked up, I have no problem with this they have to make money and is expected for a venue like this. I will say the quality of drinks is poor. Poorly poured pints as pervasive. The club is clean and wall maintanted but lacks either luxury or charm and fall short of building a unique environment and using the space the create an interesting ambiance. It's got a large amount of potential but lacks the ability to live up to it. It does book acts worth seeing so you will go if you want to see that act.
Great show from Scarlett and the Gilded Merkin but this must be my least favourite venue to have seen them at. Firstly on not the venue's fault there seems to be a large amount of road works in the area disrupting traffic in the area, the first two car parks being either full or closed. Secondly arriving at the venue 35 minutes early expecting to enjoy a couple of drinks downstairs before the doors open discovered a large queue was already forming no one seemed to be using the bar facilities at all and it was either start queuing or miss out on good seats. Finally in the main room itself got a seat in the second row but the stage seems slightly lower than most and when the acts would do floor work they were largely obscured by the heads of the front row, god knows what people further back could see. Will definitely be going to the Gilded Merkin and Scarlett's other shows again, but not here.
All the staff are friendly and take the time to ask you how your night is going, the bar downstairs is really nice and has a chic look to it. The comedians on the night were great and engaged the audience with friendly and we'll pitched banter.
I love this venue! Always great acts and staff are great! Even the food and show deal was great, fish and chips really tasty before the show. Recommended getting in early to get to bar and get seated.
Fantastic night out. The host and acts were comical and involved the audience. Food a little pricey but the Nachos were perfect. Friendly staff, I'll definitely be going again!
