G-A-Y Manchester

Similar to all the other reviews, on this site and others, I find the club itself to have a bad atmosphere, but worse are the aggressive, unprofessional bouncers, and what many have described as their discriminatory admission policies. Of half a dozen times there since it was Spirit, I've seen gay guys turned away for not being the right kind of camp; women turned away arbitrarily, and have had TWO instances where a full group has got in, until they got to frisking the last guy in the group (in both cases gay, but Asian or Arabic). On those two occasions, the whole groups were then pulled back out. While we can't be certain, lets just say that none of us were in much doubt about the reasons the group happened no to get in those times.

Had a brilliant night in G-A-Y, we had to queue for about 5 minutes, there was a group of 6 of us, we didnt have any problems on the door as we are not skanks! They have a really strict door policy so that it stays nice inside and really friendly ... they bounce loads of skanky people so why bother trying to get it! ... brilliant night out :)

There was a group of 8 of us and when we went to get in at GAY was told it was regulars only despite 2 of our group let in asked to speak to the manager nd he was just as bad as the bouncers when we then challenged him about discrimination nd he said we had attitude problems what a joke needless to say we wont be returning to GAY nd wil make sure I tell people planing to go there

Karen I have sufferred the same fate however I was short changed at the bar and then made to feel that i was being unreasonable! I also never received a response to complaint until I told them I was reporting them for discrimination! Would also never go back saturday night ruined making sure all my friends don't go either!!

will never be back because of the bouncer very rude and unprofessional, ruined are night and unpleased with the lack of response from the manager
