| I used to quite like the Black Sheep Bar and it's still (I understand) one of the most diverse venues in Croydon. However, the fact that in order to be allowed to enter and buy a beer you have to submit to your fingerprint being recorded lends an unpleasant Orwellian air to a place that is supposed to be for recreation. I understand security being important but this is disturbing. I didn't give my fingerprint and would not return while this policy is still enforced. From what I remember though, good music, a lively crowd and a pretty breathtaking array of unusual liqueurs and spirits, good for shooters. VegaLaCerda - 13 Nov 2011 10:01 |
| Went there once about a year back. Aggressive place full of little kids who think there bad. The staff are rude too you can tell they just want to go home and stop dealing with the rabble which I can almost understand lol! Barbon - 10 Nov 2011 16:54 |
| Anywhere that had an ID scanner on the door is a definite no-go area, steve5312 - 27 Nov 2009 17:15 |
| One of the worst places I've ever been to. Horrible music, horrible clientele who couldn't care less if they were barging into you as long as they could jump around to an incredibly commercialised Nirvana song and the most OTT ID system I've ever known. Truly horrible in every sense of the word. hillsiola - 10 Feb 2009 23:04 |
| I hate to write this, as I've enjoyed many late evenings out with friends in the Sheep. It has, however, become somewhat of a misdenomer recently, escallating in an inexplicable incident. I was accused, after cueing for approximatley an hour, that I had jumped the cue. I obviously wouldn't feel moved to write this comment if I'd been caught out, but I had legitimatley been waiting from the back, was hadn't had one drink and waited patiently. I was with one other friend, whom they didn't talk to. I informed them calmly that they were mistaken and asked them to consider if it might have been anyone else, to which I was faced with a torrent of shouting and swearing from the head bouncer. It appears that the place is to be haunted by over-zealous and aggressive doors people. Why I was singled out or treated this way, I've no idea, but a huge disappointment and not sure I'll ever return again having been a member for 7 years. JonTheSheep - 8 Nov 2008 11:49 |
