To break away from my usual Friday night routine of “too much bed, not enough sleep” with the missus, I came here last Friday night (Feb 11) to watch the band Soul’d Out. For my 2011 Woking night out debut, I was most impressed with bed bar. Arriving at around 9.15pm, it was free entry with no ID issues from the belligerent bouncers. We were served straight away at the downstairs bar by the attentive member of bar staff, where a Magners and single vodka lemonade came to around £7.40.
The band was excellent and there was a host of different age groups of people in here, with the atmosphere relaxed. I later paid £5.50 for a bottle of Corona and a coke, so as with the drink prices above, make what you want from that if anything about the prices of drinks in here. Only popped upstairs to use the toilet, though it seems lively enough and there is even a balcony section for smokers!
Overall, a decent enough bar in Woking with late drinking and I would certainly come here again – even over going somewhere in Guildford - on a Friday night for instance.

This place looks great, but... I wouldn't say there's too much else to rave about, the music is usually alright, particularly a couple of the live bands, and some of the cocktails are nice (and cheap early on). Other than that, the bar staff aren't hugely friendly (even when quiet) and the general atmosphere leaves a bit to be desired. I'm happy to pop in occasionally on a night out but wouldn't want to stay for the duration.

This bar is a playground for kids who are just old enough to drink and the doorman know this as they are fireed up for trouble every opening night, you can never be comfortable here nor can you be safe. The staff are just arrogant excusing the rare one or two who can be quite friendly. All in All I would recommend to stay away.
|
Charges people loads of money to get in and the bouncers are an awful bunch, why not go somewhere free such as Farenheit in Guildford? Bad bar more like.

Policeman kicked in the face trying to escort two 17-year-olds out of here last weekend. Local press if full of it. Hmmmm...
|
Terrible place, dont go there!!!!!!!!!
|
Agreed johnclarke88. I think this place is great though i can understand why proper beer drinkers would find the selection frustrating. It doesn't have a lot of draught beers, just fosters and san miguel on tap i think, though there's nothing wrong with the quality of what they do serve!
Obviously it's designed to be a cocktail bar and nightclub and it does this brilliantly. I suggest to people who are looking for a relaxing real ale in front of a fireplace that they try somewhere else, but for those who fancy sampling cocktails and thrive on live bands and DJs this is definatley the place to go in Woking. peace x

Great live bands and DJs, new groundfloor club is a great addition, not a great selection of beer but then again it is a cocktail bar! The best hang out in Woking without doubt. Classy and friendly atmosphere unlike a lot of other bars and clubs in the area.
Seems to be growing rapidly in popularity over the last 3 months. Have been visting regularly for about 12 months, it seems that everyone else has now started to realise that this is the place to go in Woking!
|
Staff are arrogant and full of themself... this is kinda the pits if ya ask me.. beer is no good and the place smells bad must be the cleaning products they use.. up itself and tacky. No good beer on just lager.
|
Just virtually opposite the train station this large bar has perhaps a bit more class about it than Chameleon for example. However the staff are not always the friendliest and I can't help feeling this is just another place where youngsters especially like going to get very drunk. No real ale as you'd expect.
|
They said no old men allowed so turned me awayyyyyy :(
|
Decent bands play here every Friday. Beer is nothing special but worth a go.
|
Boring as hell
|
Actually it is not that bad a bar - the drinks range is lager, with the likes of San Miguel and Fosters on tap but some other bottled beers tucked away in the fridge. Mostly i've encountered friendly people working here and would be back. The themed events are a bit hit and miss but occasionally worth a go. Really more of a young persons place than an older persons.
|
Cheap and busy but has a small selection of drinks. Also, beware the bouncers as they habitually abuse their powers to pick on customers for their own amusement.
|
somehow misses a trick or two as this place could be a classy bar but unpleasant plastic smell everywhere. poor.
|
Smells Vile. Awful beer.
|
Cheap, plastic smell I must say when walking in the other night. The venue is in an ideal location and the place itself is spacious and clean. But people don't come here, it is always dead until the late night drunks arrive. Because the beer is bad, this is not a proper pub at all just a late night money grabbing merchandise.
|
Not good. Over-priced and whats with the silly Black and White new years eve bash? No good beers really, polish lager better than Fosters and San Miguel i suppose.
|
Its not how it used to be. Has become a cheesey, over-priced venue.
|
Well, the venue itself is clean, smart and everything. But a terrible choice of beer. No ale at all.
|
Its not really somewhere to chat up girls. Its more of a place you'd take your girlfriend to, somewhere where you won't be swamped by idiots too. Better than Chameleon, RSVP, Yates etc
|
They do quite a few theme nights. More upmarket than Chameleon.
|
Chat to all the girls eh Mr? Anyway kinda smart and cool inside, drinks are not too clever, interesting Polish lager on offer is ok
|
I like these crazy late night places... Its dead downstairs, everyone is upstairs watching the DJ (Providing they are playing) Good solid venue my friends worthy of my marvellous 10/10
|
Trendy bar downstairs with live music, salsa and guest acts some nights. Great nightclub upstairs with outside smoking terrace. Best venue in Woking by a long way.
|
strange place neither club nor pub and a very dodgy vip area
