It will all change again no doubt when (or if, lol) Broadmarsh gets going, as Ocean will be demolished, and that place is sold out to capicity every weds and friday with students.so the other clubs will be desperate to grab that market! Oceana has some major problems with overcrowding in s an awkward club. Even though the Works used to have some trouble, all clubs do. When oceana opened, it totally skewed the club scene, leading to the deaths of Media, Mode and argueably the Works. In terms of nightclubs, the reason Nottinghams nightclub scene has suffered enormously is one place.Oceana. It would make it impossibly easy for visitors not to spend more time (and importantly money) in Nottingham. Nottingham needs to do a lot better at marketing itself.i think something like an interactive map of the city centre online would be great.all the streets with all pubs, bars, clubs, restuarants, arts centres, cinemas etc.u click what u want click, go to the establishment, buy ure tickets or book ure table.
#Interactive scum map full
I am a firm believer that we don't as a city appreciate anywhere near enough the massive variety we have in such a small space.Īn example is the Broadway road.you have Shaws (a bar, full service restaurant and Tapas bar), Edins (delicious italian and organic food), Revolution bar (offering limited food i think), that new Sri Lankan restaurant, Rosy Lees tea house, Broadway (really good honest food and a lovely bar), Lord Roberts (part of Nottingham's dying gay community), plus another couple of bars/pubs i cant rememeber the names of.and this is all down really quite a short street.

One thing we win hands down for in the region is restaurants. Nottingham has lost a lot of the distinctive bars and pubs it used to be able to boast, and they have been replacedby chains. So many places are all owned by bigger companies (e.g Lloyds and Wetherspoons, or La Tasca+ Slug and Lettuce) it means that all the cities end up the same. I think a large part of the problem not only in Nottingham but in a lot of cities is the distinct lack of variety in the availablility of places to go out at night. In terms of restaurants I would like to see a decent Mexican.mmmmh fajitas!!!
#Interactive scum map windows
Admittedly these venues are more expensive to drink in but this discourages the sort of dickheads who think it makes them a big man if they neck 8 pints and then smash some windows or smash someones face! I would like to see more bars, not of the Wetherspoons or Liberty's mould as invariably these places are full of chav scum, but more along the lines of Saltwater or Muse as these tend to have a more relaxed atmosphere and little or no trouble. Its not just that though, where would any new big clubs go? There was a time when it was THE venue in the UK for stag and hen parties, however I have read articles that say that it has now lost this title (which is not necessariy a bad thing) but at that time I would have said that 2-3 big clubs would have been sustainable but in the current climate I don't think its possible. I would not like to see any more big clubs in Nottingham simply because I don't think Nott's can sustain that sort of venue anymore. I agree, the nightlife in Nottingham has declined of late, I am finding that there are a lot more tossers out and about now too (or maybe I am just getting old. What resturants and bars would you like to see introduced into the city? There must be some we don't have. Alot of places are hosting dubstep and bassline nights which seem to be popular and attract a wide range of people. Quite a few clubs seem to do special events with a certain genre of music. Alot of places in Leeds seem to be really popular especially clubs that play electro etc.

I'd like to see maybe 2 or 3 large clubs open that don't just play pop/dance music all the time. What would you like to see in Nottingham to promote it's nightlife? Not all of you may be into this sort of thing but it does bring a huge amount of money into the city. The bar/club near Sneinton Market even had a shooting in it.

Media used to be terrible for trouble especially at kicking out time.

I think Nottingham could easily sustain 2 or 3 more big clubs but I'd like to see them offer something abit different from the norm rather than just be a place that plays commercial music and attracts people that end up getting in fights. Nottingham is renownded for having a good nightlife but IMO it seems to of declined in the past few years especially as the police don't seem to agree with the opening of new clubs etc due to the trouble of the past in places such as The Works. Well every other forum has one of these with plenty of discussion in each one so I thought I'd start one here.
