"I don’t even know where to start with this one, went with my girlfriend last night for our first time and we had a terrible experience"
"Freaking racists!!! From guards to the people who come there to party, all racists"
"bought pre sale tickets for the purged night (sat oct 28) to wait in line for an hour and half without the line moving at all, what’s the point of tickets if ur not even guaranteed to get in, was told it was excessively overcrowded inside as well"
"The worst club experience I’ve ever had at any club throughout Canada"
"Went there on a Friday night the dance floor was packed and we saw a dog with its owner come in"
I don’t even know where to start with this one, went with my girlfriend last night for our first time and we had a terrible experience. We waited in line for about 10 mins (not too bad) but just to come into a very empty looking club. The bouncer never stopped any white guys in front of me nor my girlfriend, but then proceeded to grab my chest and scan me when trying to enter (I’m a black male). My girlfriend and I forgot to bring some cash for the entry fee, our mistake, so we chose to leave our ID instead as we were given the option and they wouldn’t take debit, I specifically asked the girl working the door if we just grab them at the end of the night and she responded “yes” with no mention of payment. The bartender indoors was very negligent and eventually just went to the outdoor bar. At the end of the night when we went to retrieve our ID’s the same lady at the door kept asking for $5 each, as stated earlier this wasn’t mentioned at the beginning of the night. When trying to explain that we were never told about the fee, the bouncer behind her rudely kept yelling “bullshit you were told” and refused to hear me out. Once we had grabbed our cash they raised the price for my ID from $5 to $10 for my ID saying “it’s always been $10 for guys”. Felt disrespected wouldn’t recommend to anyone especially those of coloured skin.
Freaking racists!!! From guards to the people who come there to party, all racists. If a guy/girl with color just stands beside the door the guards will ask you to move and when its a white guy or chick even puking on the dance floor, no one shows up! Highly unlikely to refer this stupid place to anyone, ever!!! Worst clubbing experience ever! Kudos to the bartenders tho, they are amazing❤️❤️ Edit to owner response: please post the email address in your response if there is any way you can access the camera footage. You can see see a white guy shoving me and a guard whose a person of colour so good job on diversity, coming to me to tell me to calm down. You can access the footage of many white girls standing by door and when i stood there to talk for a second i was told to move. Oh also did you know there was a white guy throwing up and no guard bothered to see if he was okay but instead my girlfriend got him tissues. Just to repeat I never accused of anyoje being part of KKK nor will I go there. Its simply a review on my visit and how race biased exist majority of the time at this club. I would love to have a conversation not a rant. I simply felt humilated and wish it could be addressed in a professional manner.

bought pre sale tickets for the purged night (sat oct 28) to wait in line for an hour and half without the line moving at all, what’s the point of tickets if ur not even guaranteed to get in, was told it was excessively overcrowded inside as well. Gave up after the line had not moved for over an hour waste of time and money. update: was contacted about my review and offered compensation for the tickets which i received partially… i wasn’t asked how many tickets i bought i was just handed a 20$ bill by one of the bouncers i was told to ask for the owner but he was too busy to talk to me all night which is fair but when i asked the bouncer 2 separate times for the owner i was told he would find me even though the club was full and he doesn’t know what i look like. They also said i would be given “a bunch of free drinks” but wasn’t given one? why offer something if ur not gonna follow through. Definitely will think twice before going back here the only good thing about this place is the friendly bartenders and good music.
The worst club experience I’ve ever had at any club throughout Canada. I’m not sure where these 5 star reviews are coming from, but disregard them and listen to the low reviews, they’re the real ones. A dance club that has no actual space for dancing is the best way to describe the village. A dance club that plays music you can’t dance to is the second best. You wanna dance to Hannah Montana theme songs? Go to the village. Titanic theme song? Village. Music you’d hear in a 1980’s German disco tech? Head down to the village on Osbourne. Bathrooms are absolutely VILE, worse than the dingiest bars in the ghetto. Staff are rude and disrespectful for no apparent reason other than being bald 40 year old men with a power complex. There are some decent clubs in winnipeg but let me tell you, The village is NOT one of them. DO NOT GO HERE. - a born and raised winnipeger .
Went there on a Friday night the dance floor was packed and we saw a dog with its owner come in. This is completely negligent on so many levels and should never have happened. If someone steps on that dog it could seriously injure or kill the dog, not to mention the very loud music. If someone tripped over the leash (that was only used after I confronted the owner)they could easily have a lawsuit on their hands. I should elaborate and say the dog was not a support animal when asked about why the dog was there the owner said the dog likes party’s. We told and asked multiple staff and got brushed off. This company will not have my business and I will very vocally advocate for avoiding this company. Owning a dog myself I would never put my pet in that situation.
If your not white don’t even bother going this place has the worst organised staff where there’s 0 communication with one another and to prideful, staff don’t even consider working as in a professional way more like taking personal absolute bias this place has banned 90% of any coloured individuals based on personal opinion and judgment “let me tell you this” ……they could argue their way out and give you every reason to blame you but I promise you this it’s not accurate and this place should respectfully either shut down or change their staff work ethics and focus about the profession purpose of the club and not discriminate any kind of human creature, yellow , black , white , Asian , brown
such a terrible place and organization. went in a couple weeks ago with my boyfriend who is black, and he got completely harassed by the bouncers and security for no reason right at the entrance. First saying that he is not fitting the “dress code” while he was wearing normal attire. then bouncers start throwing him around and harassing him and saying “no jack packs”. what does that even mean ? I had no problem getting in. (being white). I am now hearing about many people and their experiences with this organization and their racism towards anyone with colour. this place needs to be shut down
Bartender was super nice, drinks were good (I would say overpriced) and the girls at the coat check were nice. If you’re the type to dance, and love rap, hip hop good music transitions THIS IS NOT THE CLUB FOR YOU. Didn’t think clubs play carly rae jensen, and the music transitions were horrible. One good song would play but then it was weird 2000s, 2010 songs. I guess white people love (with the expect few of non white people) this but if you want something more fun this isn’t the club. I could see how people did like it but wow the music was something you play at 8th grade prom
First experience was not good at all, before we even walked in there were people screaming at the front door no security to control the situation and when i went inside i realized why because they were drinking at the bar with the staff!!!!! Staff at the front were also very rude and no one checking bags or pockets for weapons did not feel safe at all here, of course the dd couldnt get a simple water without paying for it too. I would give this place a second chance the nights i guess are based on luck if its going to be a good night there
There was a lineup to get in that didn't seem that long at 11pm. We stood in line for a hour. Many people would leave the bar, but the bouncer wouldn't let the equivalent in. I thought it must be packed inside. We finally got in, and there was plenty of space. Don't know what the big deal was. The drinks were good, and the music was okay at first. The last hour was just thug rap, which was hard to dance to. Wish there was more hip hop. Wish I had gone somewhere else. Too bad it was my bachelorette, so I can't take back the night. Oh well.
Okay how can i start this off, if i could give them 0 stars or even negative i would, The bathrooms are horrific, the prices of drinks are not too bad but no the best, the bar tender was rude and just wanted a tip, the music is not the best but ok, But besides all this i try to attend 1 year later to see if they changed thinking the location would be better, i wait 30 minuets to get my id scanned for them to say im banned? and not give me any reason to why im banned. Unbelievable .
Absolutely recommend this place if you're visiting Winnipeg!! Very affordable chicken wings with multiple varieties. The servers are cute, sweet and friendly. If you enjoy watching American sports with friends, meanwhile chowing down on tasty crunchy chicken wings accompanied with your favorite beers. And also, most importantly, served by sexy hot chicks (Taylor Swift model, sorry for guys who like curvy type, may be they weren't on their shift when I was there)
It’s terrible don’t ever go there I promise you will regret it it’s bad and racist they don’t respect themselves they are old but childish and can’t handle business professionally childish minded owners that need to grow up it’s seems like they plan everything very negative environment drunk staffs on duty aggressive and don’t conduct themselves professionally that place need to be shutdown And that’s the least all staffs out of shape they need to hit the gym
First Time at this place, would rate half a star If I could. Had the bouncer hold my ID while I went to the ATM to grab 10$ for the cover. Briefly forgot, returned to the bouncer no more than 15 minutes later to pay and leave with my ID, they withheld it illegally, wouldn’t return my ID and wouldn’t take my money. The Manager also threatened to contact my place of work and tried to provoke me by escalating the situation. Nice Location, terrible Organization.
I went once and then again another time this year, the first time was cool how they have a nice seating area and then the dance floor is actually separated nicely. Patio is a great feature. The second time was as expected and the music has always been fun/dancey songs. Although I don’t dance much, It was great. Not sure why people on here say it’s racist, there wasn’t any racism towards me. I don’t even remember I’m a different race half the time. Lol.
Rude staff! I wanted a glass of water and bartender told me we can just give you a glass of ice!! And she rudely placed a glass of ice in front of me and looked away! I Have never seen a club that refuse to give you water and tells you that you have to buy water. I have been to other clubs in Winnipeg and they are willing to give you water for free but it seems like here they want to make money out of your need for water as well! Never come back again!
bouncers were cool, DJ was great, the DJ effects were on point (lights/fog machine), but bar service was absolutely terrible. 8+ tenders and had the worst service. the one individual served someone beside me, then made eye contact directly with me then walked away...came back with empty glasses to "re-fill". Made eye contact again and walked away again...won't be returning. worst bar & staff experience
They refused to give me a glass of water... I was the DD for my group for the evening and the bartenders said I HAD to pay for a $3 bottle of water if I wanted it... You should not be allowed to refuse water to someone, that's completely asinine. Other establishments give free pop to DD's, you should at the very least give free water!!! Way to help the environment and promote safe driving.
Wings were overcooked and flavorless. The burgers we ordered were frozen patties you would expect to find from of a walmart or superstore no name box. Absolutley the worst . Very minimum menu selection to order from. If you are hungry....avoid this dump. Oh yah, the bathroom light is on a motion sensor timer and the towel dispensor HAD towels......you just couldnt get any to dispense.
I had a great experience once I was inside! Good drinks, great music. The wait to get in was really long unfortunately - but is to be expected with a popular club. The bouncers weren't exactly friendly but overall no big complaints. That being said, it would be really nice if they moved to a bigger location so that there aren't people waiting for an hour that never end up getting in.
the bartender charged me $17.25 for ONE blue lagoon. when asked about it, she straight up ignored me and went to the next person.. but clearly y'all needed the money more than i did with how dead it's been lately (wonder why) extremely disrespectful and i'll never be coming here again. also saw 2 meth needles outside on the patio..

Great place to party on the weekend, in my top 3 for Winnipeg. Love the music they play here, which ranges from 90s RnB to modern hip -hop/pop. It does get overcrowded at times and can get really hot inside on a humid night. Lastly the only thing I can say bad about this place is that be ready to get your toes stepped on and drinks spill on you but that's every club/bar in Winnipeg.
Bouncers wouldn't let me in. For no good reason. I tried explaining my side of the story. Bouncers couldn't care less. They didn't give me much info to resolve this issue. Take their bartenders feelings over my logical reasoning. I respected their bartenders. I did not say anything inappropriate. I felt discriminated against. Not a loss. I'm disappointed by their biased decision.
Would be great but unfortunately they don’t have nearly enough security staff watching the dance floor as drinks are being thrown at people all night, and purely because the throwers think it’s funny. Ruins everyone’s night as no one goes there to have that done to them. The only reason it wasn’t a 1 star was because the bar staff is really friendly and fast
Worst staff in the history of clubs, don’t even bother going if you’re not a white person. Bouncers are extremely rude and very aggressive just because you look a certain way. If you want to enjoy your night I would suggest you spend your money elsewhere! If I could give -5 stars I would.
They refused to give me a glass of water, even as a DD. I was very rudely lied to by a bartender that the pipes where rusting and it made the water brown. The place was over crowded and floor was sticky. I would rate it higher but it seems ridiculous to not serve tap water.
Got there at 11:15ish, waited an hour near the front of the line with me and 3 others. But the security guard kept going to the back of the line to let groups of girls in every 10 minutes, after they were waiting atleast 15 minutes. Don’t know how that makes any sense.
Horrible place to be. Doesn't value staff and you can tell. Bar tenders don't cut off obnoxious drunks. Props to the bussers cleaning up everyones vomit. If you're 16 for the first time pop off have your night but would not recommend for dancing or a good time.
I love this place! One of the girls that works there I think her name was sierra, she helped me so much when I needed it and she was so polite and outgoing! I will definitely be coming here more often!!

Did not enjoy this club at all. I wouldn't even call it a club in my opinion. Hard to walk around without being pushed, and the dance floor is pretty small. We were here for 30 minutes until we decided to just go over to Fame which was much better.
I only walked in once and it was too dead so we left... but from what other people say, this place is pretty lit if you go at the right time! The music is always bumping and filling the streets since it's a patio bar! I will deffs come here again
3 drinks in a row made incorrectly. 1 short pour (3/4oz instead of a 1oz). 1 dark rum (that came out of a Jack Daniel's bottle) and a vodka cran when a G&T was ordered. Their wings are amazing but late night drinks were a hard fail.
After careful consideration and the owner's reply to my review, I have decided to change it from 2 stars to a 1-star review. I had 12 drinks over the course of an hour, and did not get drunk.
Price per person
$40–50
Poor service, the girls who bartend have bad attitudes. Won't be back, nor will I recommend this place. There are very few places left to have drinks on Osborne, and sadly this place has gown down hill. Best to avoid.
The place is more for like super young people, between 18-20 maybe. The drinks weren’t super good and there were not enough bartenders. They had Latin music, what made my night, but it’s just not my favorite place.
Pretty large club with a nice dance club. Only one bar available, making drinks sometimes a bit difficult to quickly get. Bouncers were very nice at the door and ladies went in free the night we went.
The staff are very disrespectful. They were hitting women in there!!!!! I would give them a 0 if I could. I would not recommend this club to anyone as it is not a healthy atmosphere nor is it SAFE!!
I got kicked out for offering a 10$ tip for water cause he thought I was joking but I just really wanted water and I always tip. they kicked me out for it !?! . Worst experience out I’ve ever had.
If Google had negative rating would have rated the last one to the left of the line.absolut addict runs the place with white racist mentality, would not recommend this pathetic place to anyone.
people are so rude at this place. I strongly recommend this place to people who wanna pay nothing to get in. And if you are just like 16 years old this places probably not a fun place for you.
the bartenders, security and coatcheck girls are super nice and friendly. they got good specials and i’d recommend this place to anyone!

Pretty good it’s the place to dance but they have the exact same songs every single time and have to wait a long time for a drink but besides that it’s great for dancing!
the girl at the front was an absolute ray of sunshine, so sweet and made it such an easy experience! will definitely be back (:

Never ever going back. Security power trip abuse of power. Was assaulted by security and seen others removed with over use of force and unlawful removal.
The place is generally for all legal ages. I saw some group doing their dance in an old fashion way and it makes the place more fun to hang out with
Good drinks, friendly staff, good location, good music. Only problem being that’s it’s kind of small so not much room when there’s lots of people.
Went for wing night it was super cheap but not worth it. The service was awful, the wings were dry and small. You get what you pay for I guess.
I would definitely give this place 0 star if it lets me. The bouncers are racist and aggressive. Will never come there again. Bad experience
Great place to dance and have a some drinks. Did VIP one night and it was the best in the city that I have had so far. Will return soon!
Racist staff. Staff at the bar counter and bouncers treat you like you don’t belong here. If your not white this place is not for you.
Uninspiring club, bad service, owner is disrespectful, place is a joke. Removed tap water drinks and forced to buy bottled water now
Gets 1 out 5 cools, wouldn't play All-Star by Smash Mouth.... You know who would play All-Star? Kanye, thank you Kanye, Very cool
Lots of drink people. Including myself. Great times Good laughs. Recommend to those looking for a "bumping" good time. Gooo
Club was great, but I was told multiple times to tip when I used the washroom? Didn't like that. Let me piss in peace
Drunken patrons ruined our experience. Food wasn't terrible and price was great. Finally, the music was fine as well.
Do not plan for any special parties here, save your money and go to Citizen instead they are much more considerate.
Very nice place, so funny and the food is very cheap. The best order that you can do is the calamari for $5
Great place to have a bday party ! Great music great food and great vibe on a Friday Saturday night.
love this place! my favourite place to spend a friday night

Great nightclub and love the patio during the summer. Isn’t too crowded and the music is great!
If you’re not a white male/female don’t even bother they will toss you at any chance they get.
It is decent place...but I did not like the people at the club, the service was so so..
Atmosphere was pretty lively, so was music, bit crowded but that why we all go there!!
Was pretty empty on Thursday night. The bartender was nice and the drinks were cheep.
Love this place, fav party spot - gave it 4 stars due to them having a dress code.
Probably the best bar in the city. Unreal patio, great music, beautiful women.
Drinks were decent, waitress was pleasent but there was mold in our tacos..
If we get pulled out from club by bouncers are we pulled out for life tym?
Worst club in the winnipeg, they hit my friend and try to break my fingers
Stopped in for a Caesar. Great service and absolutely awesome spicy Caesar
Worst club ever , staff is racist, they hit my friend without any reason

Fun location, kind not the greatest music but still a good atmosphere
Worst club ever,racist staff , hit our friend without any reason
Standard issue, was rather bored. Atmosphere is typical. Basic.
Only one bar so on a busy night it is hard to get any service.
Good place for a group hangout, service can be a little slow.
My friend if ur non white don’t go save your time …
Not good, there is no free water provided for guests!
Always a good time. Really enjoyed Mamma Mia night!
A great place to drink and dance among friends.
Fills up very quick, but great place to party
No entrance for males due to the ratio..
Great DJ’s every Friday and Saturday!
Great atmosphere and music choices!
Afternoon beers on the back patio!
It was great staff and good music
Seemed empty on a Thursday night
The place to be on the weekend!
Great time on a Saturday night
Decent place to get together.
5/10 couldn't get laid here
Unreal place! Great staff!!
Would give a 0 if possible
Made my roommate very sad
Great DJ, and bartenders!
Great lay out very open.
