When first introduced to MOTHER I didn't know if it would bey vibe. But after going to my first time and realizing the Vibe, The Music , The Deejays The Staff, The bouncer's, Cloakroom Service and our Bartenders that keep us hydrated through the night or festival. I realized in moments of going once brought me back to Mother even more it's become my night home away home. Not only a safe Trans , Queer, Genderfluid, Non Binary place for the community but for everyone as well all shapes , sizes , and many commuites welcomed. Mother has been my place of happiness over and over again and hopefully here in out to the future of mother we continue to support and love each other cause that's what Mother has done for probably not only me but for others as well. Let's continue to Make Mother that place you wanna be on Fridays and Saturdays even at Mother Festivals. A place were you are loved and Mother loves you. Spread love not hate, show some love and participate.

Mother is ALWAYS a good time. Whether it’s the regular Mother night or literally anything that the Mother DJ’s happen to be playing, if Mother are involved, it will be incredible. This night is always a safe bet if you’re looking for good tunes, dancing and the nicest crowd. But it’s more than that too. Mother always feels like a safe space and a proper little community. (And they make pretty great merch).

  • esra zihni

Very rude bouncers. They wouldn't let me in even though I was literally the only person who wanted to get in. I had loads of friends inside and knew some of the regular staff as well. The bouncer was more interested in flirting with a customer than to hear me out even when my friends came out to greet me and was trying to ask him to let me in. So unprofessional

Crème del a Crème queer club in Dublin Top notch venue and the DJs never disappoints. All the staff are super friendly, from the door to the bar there is always a welcoming and warm vibe. Mother has built an amazing safe LGBTQIA+ friendly space in the heart of Dublin and I would fully recommend to anyone looking to dance and listen to great music on a Saturday night

  • David Barrett

First time here and WOW … great music, great crowd, great atmosphere. €10 euro in (cash only for entry) and drink prices are pretty standard for city centre - certainly didn’t feel ripped off. Overall, I found the staff to be friendly and helpful. My only gripe would be the line for cloakroom at the end of the night takes FOREVER … like I was a good 20 minutes queuing.

  • Grace Gordon

Absolutely love a nite at Mother! Music is always brilliant, mixture of house & disco with some surprises! Dance floor is always packed & fun & sweaty There is another room with a bar which is more chilled out if u need a break from the main dance floor Mother is an inclusive space & if you're not 100% ok with that then this is not the place for you, g'luck

  • Kieran MacHugh

By far the best nightclub in Dublin on Saturday night for all ye rainbow people! :p Saturday night, Dublin Ireland. There is only one place to be? Mother Dublin, Lost Lane off Grafton St. Great mix of music, two great bars and lots of sound people Always bring my friends here and they all have a great time no what what their tonic is

  • Adam Brannigan

Thee best queer venue in Dublin! A venue with the best DJs and Music. A venue that’s welcoming to all who are respectful (allies). Everyone who works there are FAB, from the team who run it and set it up, to the bar staff, cloakroom asst, security and all involved they're the best. If you’re looking for a gorge vibe, check out Mother! ❤️

  • Michael Spichtinger

I love mother, the music is very special, I hardly know any other club to play such a “discoy” mix. The atmosphere is usually great, it’s a place for everyone. It can get very crowded at times though. To avoid a bad experience upon entering, I suggest to be there early and take it easy with the booze …

  • Luke Row

We visited Mother because The George queue was huge. To be honest we were really grateful as this place rocks. Not the usual type of Gay club I’m used to, ie good music and no cheese. We just wish there was an equivalent in London. Can’t wait to visit again next time we’re over.

  • Dean Mulrooney

The vibes. They be immaculate. Honestly such a safe space, always a great crowd. DJs always playing the nicest dance tunes, can easily dance away all night here under the signature triangle. Having been dancing to Mother for years and hope I get to dance for many years to come.

  • Shane Jackson

Pretty good music and ambiance. However it is quite a bit cramped. I was pretty disgusted when I saw the barman pour pints into used plastic cups and serve them to other people. Didn't even rinse, they had the suds from the previous drink and he didn't care. Very gross!

  • Christopher B

Worst "club" venue in Dublin. Loads of corners, steps and stairs but little room to dance and a painfully slow bar. Beware, they don't take cards on the door (in 2023!) and their bar card machine often fails.

  • Walter J. Júnior

This is, without a doubt, the best dance floor in Dublin. The DJs, the promoters, bouncers, everyone is sound and make sure us queers have a safe and fun place to be who we are! Apart from the fact that it's the place I first met my husband. ❤️

  • Evan Mc Adam

The best inclusive club in Dublin. Hands down. (Hands up more likely) Everything from the organizers to djs to bar staff to bouncers, nothing but good vibes and great tunes. My only complaint is that it’s once per week… I need more! …

  • Prymary Colours

One of, if not, THE best club nights in Ireland. The atmosphere is so welcoming. The music always varies. The energy is electric. The vibe is safe & fun. Consistently great & is a number 1 recommendation. Certainly, not to be missed …

  • fellipe couto

Very bad staff posture, really not interested in helping or making anything to help when we need. Didn’t feel comfortable talking to the manager which is an not experienced young guy. Very Dirty floor and long queue for drinks…

  • Cian Finlay

Best DJs in Dublin, best vibe, best clubnight. It just feels so open. It feels ok to be yourself, whoever that self is. Mother draws a really nice crowd every single week ❤️ Also, the lights are sick :>

  • John Kentisbeer

Brilliant Saturday night, great music which was kinda retro electric pop mixes but with some modern mixes thrown in. Awesome light display. Often with visiting DJs, but always with tasty tequila shots!

  • Paddy Healy

Worst experience I've had, will not be back, and to be charged at the door they should be paying people to come in.

  • Tamas Csintalan

Definitely the best nightclub in Ireland for quality electronic music. Also the sound volume is insane, and the light show is just out of this world. Would give them 10 stars....

  • oscar soriano

Everything is expensive in this city, and this place is not different. However, I had a good night there, the floor was slippery, but that is the only thing I would rate badly.

  • Ryan

Maybe we went at the wrong time but seemed quite rundown. Music was nothing special. Bit too druggy atmosphere. Too many people on their own and not very friendly.

  • Paul Tyrrell

The best gay night! A safe place not polluted with straights lol and the bouncers are sound and don’t turn away gay people like other gay bars …

  • Ingrid Perez Palacio

We had a really bad experience tonight with the staff guy at the entrance. He was rude to my friends and made fun of us. He didn’t let us in

  • Lisa Richards

A guaranteed fun night, you will dance all night with the soundest crowd. All the dj's are rides too which is always appreciated …

  • jack koers

The go to place for disco and electronic music. Wonderful staff and always a crazy night. ...What happens in Mother stays in Mother.

  • Aaron Byrne

One of the best Queer Nights in Dublin. I've been going for years and I've never had a bad night. Big props to the Mother team

  • Luke Benaglia

Boîte très agréable, serveur agréable, tout agréable, mise à part un videur très agressif sans aucune raisons. Bien dommage
