WARNING! The Venue is well furnished. The End! New Years Eve 2008/2009. The place is organised by highly unprofessional staff and security who clearly have no training or experience in thier supposed field. The security's most important job seemed to be preserving the vip area and little else.
At one point i was standing outside the toilet waiting for a friend and rudely told to move as i was standing too near the entrance to the vip area. After 1am security seemed to do little to remove trouble makers.
Shortly after police where called to the upstairs VIP area and a few officers had to deal with a situation so the toilets were closed as they were enroute to the vip area.
Then the only member of staff with any professionalism the guest list guy was set upon buy some party goers and had no support from security and was forced to calm the situation down on his own with help from other club goers.
Next the fire/panic alarm went off in the venue and the lights came up and everyone was told to leave so half the club went to the coat room area whilst four van loads of uniformed police stormed into the club and up to the vip area "obviously" where another fight had broken out.
Security made no attempt to control the crowd at the cloakroom and it was a free-for-all not helped by the fact that nobody realized it might be a good idea to allocate extra staff to give out coats. People had to wait upto 1.5 hrs to get coats while people who had gone outside, as told, where not allowed back in and had to freeze outside in the cold, while drunk people pushed to the front of the mob at the cloakroom and innocent people where being turfed out by security and police just for trying to get their jackets. The few bar staff there were, were professional and polite and one organiser who were surrounded with unprofessional morans. My advice Steer Clear.
Great place, great music and nice people! Definitely recommend this bar/club on a Saturday. Opens until 3am.
i have been in carbon twice and i loved it!!!! great music to keep u dancin all night long!!!
Its hardly a club!!!! I have had the pleasure to go to many clubs across London and as far as Im aware a club (as opposed to a bar) is open all night, 6am, 7am, I believe this shuts at 1am???? (If Im wrong apologies, however, I am pretty sure it is not open all night). There are plenty of clubs in London where I can pay £15 or less and go and see world renowned and respected DJ's, dance all night, have an amazing time and certainly not be treated like a peice of dirt. This place is a joke!
Shocking!!!!! Would not reccomend this place to anyone, a group of 10 of us arrived there at 8:30pm last Saturday night and were subjected to rude and obnoxious bouncers and no entry unless we payed £15.00 each to get into what looked like an empty bar!!!! Do they really think we are that stupid??? Pretentious and tacky is about all I have to add.
never normally write reviews, but this time I just couldn’t let it go. I recently visited Carbon club and had the most awful experience! Before I started queuing I was chatting to my friend who was standing in the enclosed smoking area. When I was just about to go and queue one of the bouncers came up to me and asked whether I was going to climb the fence to avoid paying for the entrance (This was utterly bizarre!). Whilst I was queuing, I saw one guy coming out from the club and talking to of his two female friends who were queuing right in front of me and explaining which name they were listed under on the guest list. The same bouncer then kicked that guy out as he supposedly was not meant to stand there! The shocked guy then tried to queue again together with his two friends but when their turn came the bouncer kicked them all out. He then did the same to me! I tried to complain, but the bouncer wouldn’t even give me his name. I got the impression that considering how unimportant their job was they were trying to show their importance and power. I would not recommend this club to anyone.
The most disgusting bar I have ever been to. The bouncers are uneducated and rude. DO NOT GO there if you want to have a nice time.
The door man was really friendly even when he asked me for an I.D/ still the atmosphere was really cool and as we were sitting in the VIP area upstairs we stll went downstairs becouse there were no room to dance! but the venue is really good, good music, nice people. CARBON!!!
