Reviews

It's a bit of a meat market in there....

Blu Bambu is central to the Bigg Market, which comes with the infamous reputation for short skirts, drunkeness, violence and loose morals. As a University city Newcastle's venues divide themselves firmly to align with one uni or the other and this is predominately the terain of college students, and Northumbria Uni students. In term time the club does a lot to encourage rivalry between the two uni's with competitions, jeering songs etc. The club is filled with a very young crowd, drinking a lot and wearing a little. Even the bar staff wear bikinis. This club is not somewhere you can sit and talk, but if your idea of a good holiday is a week in Ibiza/Feleraki etc, this probably would seem like the best night out in Newcastle. Drinks are not overly expensive, but basic choice. The dance floor is continually under a puddle of said drinks, don't wear nice shoes! Whilst the same can be said of most clubs to one extent or another, this club is by and large a meat market, and doesn't attempt to hide that. Unfortunately if you don't want to be one of the not-so-pretty-people trying to mate in a corner, you leave feeling skint, slightly degraded and very, very dirty.
