Verve, Bury

Too small, too many people packed in and no air-con

Sol:Viva, Bury

Used to love it in here, always bumped into people you knew.
Ground floor was always full of the younger generation kicking off every weekend and music was the kind you need to take drums to perform
Second floor was good with the two bars and dance floor, good music
Third bar was great, small dance floor but good music. Copped off every weekend ;-)
Last memory in here about 10 years ago was pole dancing in the cage on bottom floor got thrown out by a women bouncer who obviously did not like my moves on the dance floor!
Could never get taxi home so they trick was to leave half hour before closing or there was always people fighting for taxis or kebabs
Grew up fast and thank god bars started opening late

The Robert Peel, Bury

I work in Bury Town centre and see people waiting out side to get their first drink in here at around 11am, nice to see what my taxes pay for!!!
People just used to hang round drinking out of brown bags in bus station or Kay Gardens but now they can keep warm in here
Dirty place, people and cheap/nasty drinks
