Coming to Chester for 2 nights with 7 friends and looking for a recommendation on bars / clubs to go. Any ideas?
Loved the place until i got refused entry for having a slight mark on my ID when the bouncer picked up on it i tried to justify it he got aggressive and and said "youre barred forever mate" was a regular now i dont go at all
i have had many a good night over the past 5 years in rosies and never had a problem apart a sinister undertone created by the club bouncers which never amounted to physical abuse until last saturday when i was queing up after a showed my id and one of them winked at me i thought nothing of it and went into the club later on when i went to the toilets i was followd in by 5 bouncers and held over the urinal they pushd my face into the puddle of urine left in the bowl an proceeded to pull down my calvin klein boxer shorts i cannot continue the rest of this story here as it is to explicit my final conclusion is to avoid rosies at all cost

Awsome place, good laugh...bouncers are sound as fuck unless you are....how to put this?? CUNTS?? yeah that will do. Get over it if you not let in your more than likely a CUNT so just learn to live with it and move on..

worst shit pit in chester never met so many ignorant staff members in all my life
I have had many fantastic nights in your club over the last few years. However, the behaviour of your bouncers last night left me absolutely furious, by refusing to let a member of the group in without any explanation or reason why. Nobody was drunk, disorderly or abusive. A member of the group phoned your establishment on Thursday evening to arrange 13 people admission to the VIP lounge. We were refused entry and were told to join the other queue - which we did without any fuss or argument, we just wanted a good night out. After joining the other queue and waiting for 20 minutes, the bouncer requested proof of age for one of our guys - which wasn't a problem. However, the bouncer then decided before our guy even had chance to take his ID out, that he wasn't allowed in. I think that this is outrageous not to mention very predjudice. I think that refusal for one guy, based on what he looks like is absolutely disgraceful. After the guy left the queue, without any fuss, I then approached the bouncer and asked why he was refused and he then decided that I wasn't allowed in too. Do you think that this is acceptable?
bad music
Bouncers and Manager are terrible
The music here is excellent and i always have a good night. Yeh the bouncers can be fussy but its understandable if someone turns up in trainers or rockports! I think its the bouncers in cruise that are the arseholes as they chucked my sister out when she was only goin to the loo! In general i think chester is strict for i.d but ive never had any problems anywhere. If i was going to go anywhere for a night out in chester it'd def be rosies!
Rubbish, awful place.
Bouncers and Manager are terrible.
Look how many people have commented on how awful the bouncers are.
Never ever going back
Most bouncers in Chester are knobs, and Chester is nowhere near as good as Liverpool for night out... but Rosies is better than Cruise! The musics better and loads of the people in Cruise are stuck up!! I went to Rosies on Thursday it was open till 4am was ace. But unfortunately there was a bit of fighting towards the end of the night, apart from that it was great!!x
An absolutely awful place, there aren't words strong enough for me to stress my hate for this place and the doormen who work there.
It's pretty obivous this view is shared by many people, just by looking at other reviews on this site and speaking to other people who have been there before.
Honestly, if you are having an awesome night in Chester, which is highly likely as everywhere else I went was amazing, don't decide to visit RB's, as it can completely ruin your night, as I found out.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY THERE.
1 star is too many, I give this place 0 stars.
Ive never been in there, and the comments about the Doormen/Women sound like my sort of people. bouncers are there for a reason, give them shit and your night will be over before it begins.
1 for the bouncers policing night club...Rock on dudes.

Rosies/Reflex/RnBs whatever you wanna call it is alright i suppose. The bouncers are wankers, but they are all over Chester. They play good music, and everyone is always up for a laugh. The Dj's are all quality, they're all really friendly, and they actually play the songs you request unlike Cruise, where u can't even request songs!
However, if you want a good night out, i'd rule Chester out completely to be honest and go to Liverpool - Garlands all the way =]
P.s No matter what time you go, or on what night you go, the toilets in Rosies are ALWAYS vile and you have to que for AGES to get in.
was having a good nyte untill we came up to rosies and was refused entry because i was wearing rockports which is the most normal shoewear to have 2 b honest fink it was the nob ed of a bouncer that he cudnt afford such expensive shoes thats why he refused me even tho the other bouncer was gunna let me in dissapointed but ahhhh well try agen with a different type of shoewear maybe rockfords hahahaha
The bouncers are really nice people when you no them, i love rosies cause im good mates with all the staff, i rekon ya all chattin shit cause ya can't get in n ya all jelous!! My opinion anyway...
I love it in RBs
But on a Tuesday night I was out for my best friends birthday and wasnt drinking, and I went to the bouncer showed my ID and then another bouncer said dont let her in! and i got told not to go in tonight.
I said why? I haven't been drinking or anything!
And they said I'm too lively!
I was really annoyed about that because I just wanted to celebrate my friends birthday! They might aswell put a sign up saying "if you have a big personality or are enthusiatic you are not allowed in" FFS get a life!!
the bouncers are complete ass holes! if you look like you even work out a little bit the bouncers dont let you in thinking your going to cause trouble just because you have abit of size to you!! wankers
IM APPAULED AT THIS NYT CLUB I WAS REFUSED ENTRY BECAUSE THE CUNT CALLED "name removed" ON THE DOOR HAS A PERSONEL VENDETA AGAINST ME FROM WORKING IN MY HOME TOWN ON THE DOOR WHICH HE WAS CHUCKED OFF FOR BEIN A TWAT TO EVERY ONE.LAST TIME WENT TO ROSIES HE WERENT ON DOOR AND IT WERE GOOD BUT THIS TIME RUINED WHAT WAS A GOOD NYT IN CHESTER. ROSIES GET RID OF HIM HE WILL GIVE THE CLUB A BAD NAME LIKE HE DID REFLEX AT MY HOME TOWN.
You lot keep repeating bout the 'sted head bouncers' and firing insults about, but it's the same everywhere, just have to get used to it no point moaning. I don't remember much from last night, but I didn't get IDed so thats a good start. But £8 to get in is quite extortionate. Then £3.80 for a bottle of WKD Core, bit overpriced! Good music, no trouble and the only sick I saw was my mate throwing up continuously at the bar, good times! Ps: Loved the hot dog stand even tho I had maccys instead haha
Its not just lads, theres a group of hot girls i know who hav trouble getting in & have even bin threatened if they do anyfing out of order in the club the bouncers will get banned them from everywhere in chester. cruise all the way boys and girls
i think two stars is an accurate rating. the prices are high, but sometimes they do have good offers on.
I think that half the people who say the place is "amazing" have some sort of affiliation with the place.
Also everyone who says theyve never had any trouble with bouncers.....read the other posts, youll soon notice that your all females who never get any trouble, thats because the steroid induced sex cravings mean the bouncers are bound to let you in and have a smile and a giggle with you in hope of getting their ends away.
Ive had many a good night here, but ill only go there as a last resort, as theres always a good chance that the bouncers silly KB excuses will ruin somones birthday or a good night out.
Ive also found cruise had the same reception on the door, they must send all their doors taff for their SIA licenses at the same times (.")
The place is absolutely wicked, and the RnB floor plays the smartest blend of Rnb i`ve ever heard, especially on thursdays and sundays
worse club ever!!! Cruise is so much better!
Good music, good dancefloors.
People do occasionally have problems with the bouncers but they usually turn down the people who think will cause trouble or won't suit the place.
Overall most people enjoy it there so what they're doing must work.
I personally think its an awesome night out..i moved here last august from south africa and can honestly say even with my foreign ID i have NEVER EVER been refused in! I love it there music is really good drinks are cheap and the atmosphere is amazing!!! cruise is really expensive in my opinion and refuse to pay £10 for a small lil drink that you get 2 sips out of! am going there this friday and i caaant wait! bouncers have always been really really friendly with me and last year let me and my friends jump the que on my bday...and made me sing the south african anthem was a good laugh!! hot dogs are really really good!! bathrooms arent that clean though tbh..and quite disgusting but i dont spend my night in there like iv seen some girls do...overall i think its well worth it! i like cruise as well only down fall is that its 21+ over weekends..which i think they should change and would probably get alot more customers in their doors as well.
Cruise is full of stuck up twats and all the chavs. Rosies is a beast of a place, with the best people and nights out. As for the bouncers i've never had a problem with them and none of my lad mates have either.
Fucking awful dump. Anyone on here who says the bouncers are anything other than stedded-up twats blatantly work there! Save yourself some time and go to Cruise.
RB's is ace, go every thursday! It isn't messy or whatever has been said.. & obviously it gets hot in there, its a club mateee.
I do understand the bouncer thing tho, never had a problem with them til thursday when i wasn't guna get let in because i don't look like my passport picture.. Even tho it was 3 years ago (Y)
Other than that, amazin place! Reccommend it to anyone :)
the bouncers are wankers they av never let me in.every time i av tryd they wud not let me in i even had id.i wudnt even go there cuz of them wankers
finking there ten men they wnt puting in place tossers.
i think rosies is ace an the bouncers are sound as toast,how many bouncers have nailed you then heather? haha suck ass. as for the rest of you, you must have all been bullies dreams, right little geeks so the bouncers thought you couldn't handle the arena, get some disco burgers an a bottle of water and stomp on the middle floor. poo?
the its self is a good night with some good tunes, but the bouncers make the night shit as you never know if your gonna get in or not as most nights the bouncers try to inpress the the women by turning the lads away!! (tip for bouncers your still not gonna pull coz your all a bunch of cunts!!)
Is a really good place to go!!! drinks are really cheap! and music is great! bouncers are good :D
Heather laad giii ovaa iii x
Heather u probly work there ya slag

as for nyt out in ther,fantastic.
most doormen in ther r sound,sum jst wierd.managers in ther r sound,music brill,
The Reflex club is now a Babylon 90s club, this is well worth going to if you are aged anything between 20-35 or so, some great 90s tunes.
Also, with the 90s not being too long ago, it's not infested with the horny middle-aged, a problem with any Reflex club lol!
Can't say I've ever had any problems with the bouncers at RBs, the whole complex gets busy at weekends!
absolutely shocking. It used to be really good when it was rosies a quality night out. Now we cant get in simply cos we have more of a penis that the stupid sted head bouncers. Putting a formal complaint in to the SIA and RBs not having it tbh. Big group of 20 of us, all the girls got in, all the lads got KBd even tho we all had ID (im 21 FFS!!!). Pathetic.
you guys need to seriously get over yoursleves. rosies is the best place in chester!!!!!
whenever ive been the toilets have been proper clean and as for the bouncers they are so sweet!
Nat stop bad mouthing rosies yeh?
see you all there tonight!!!!!!!!

we never get asked for i.d!
HOT DOGS ARE AMAZING!
rb's is a great place to go out. its much better than cruise and brannigans. the bouncers are usual ok on mon-wed but on a thursday when i went the bouncers just said go somewhere else tonight guys, with no explaination. However apart from the bouncers its amazing the music is great and u can have a really good time when ur in there. the drinks are cheeper mon-thurs but over the weekend they are more expensive, but everywhere is just as expensive as they are on the weekend. another bad thing is that toilets always stink and aren't looked after very well mayb they should hire a toiletroom attendant. Apart that and the bouncers it is far better than any of the other clubs in chester.
hi was just wondering
its my bithday thursday and looking at all the comments about bouncers being dikeds
do you think i would have a problem geting in ?
YOUR ALL LIARS!
ROSIES IS AMAZING, JUST CAUSE NONE OF YOUS CAN GET IN!!
WE GO EVERY SATURDAY AND ITS BANGINNNNNNN'
NO Q'S EVER AND ITS ALWAYS SO CLEAN!
ALL THE BOUNCERS ARE SOUND AND LOVE US TO BITS :)
GUTTED TO BE YOU!
HAVE FUN IN HAVANAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
the bouncers are complete cunts refusing us because it was student nite, but they let me in last week suppose he must of got that long waited shag of his wife, even tho they got pin dicks from all the steads the pussy are gunna get it 1 day!!!
the bouncers refuse you entry for the stupidest of resasons which is wrong , like fair enough if too many people go its goin to be packed soo they may have to refuse some people but wht they should doo is first come first serve not make up stupid reasons like locals only sorry mate haha , for fuck sake rosies is spoiled by the sted head bouncers who need a btter job
wank!! proper shit!!! bein goin every thursday for the last 8 months! never had a problem wiv the bouncers but 2nite they knocked me and 2 mates back because we didnt have student id.... as long as ive been goin there ive never needed student id... i saw 7 of my friends go in without student id!!!! i asked for the doormans name but he refused to give me it! allways liked the place...... starting 2 think twice!! only because of the bouncers!!! there nob heads!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's a good night out i suppose
bouncers are idiots i got knocked back because i was wearing rockports :S
and nearly got chucked out just because me and my mates were jumping up and down on the dance floor trying to have a good time
some of the girls that are in there still haven't left high school and people over 18 get id'd, what sense does that make :S
also drinks are too expensive, £3.50 for a bottle, its £10 for a crate of 20!
overall i suppose its ok..
Usually a good night. Bouncers seem to be bi-polar, lovely and polite some nights, arrogant, miserable gits on others. Lovely bar staff though.
RB's is hit and miss on being a good night. The doormen are very arkward with ID, every single person through the door regardless of age is ID'd which I can understand, but people getting knocked back even though they have ID is ridiculous. In this area it is similar to the door restrictions at cruise.
Inside is far too hot, sweaty and dingy, with the smell from the hotdog stand on the stairs wafting in making it even worse. RB's gets extremely busy, if not too busy, and there are very big ques to get in, to get served at the bar, to smoke and to use the toliets.
Expensive on entry for what the club offers really. Drinks inside aren't much better, exept on thursdays where you can get a bottle for 1.50.
RB's can be a good night out, can be an awful one, but the main problem is the bouncers! Arkward and stubborn, they often refuse people entry due to where they live as it says on driving licenses. Often they make the excuses of "its 21's only tonight" or "you need a ticket" or "ladies only" or whatever bullshit they can think up.
The doorstaff both here and cruise let down chesters night scene and ruin the atmosphere
i would just like to say how i had a fantastic evening in the club on friday , all bouncers were very plesant both female and male , the only down side is the hike to the roof terrace for those that smoke , but this is a minor thing , drinks 150 each fantastic , will be going again :-)
Nobody goes here any more, and the owners only have themselves to blame.
Admission is by no other criteria than whether or not the bouncers feel like it. Dress code, level of intoxication etc is applied inconsistently, to say the least. They often ask you for ID, and when you produce it say "Well you're still not coming in"
If you leave your coat there by accident, they don't let you back in to get it. When you phone up the next day to request the coat back, they charge you £5 for it.
A low class place to steer clear of.
if I could rate this minus 5 ...i would!!!
the only decent night was sunday and now they've got rid of that too!
lets not even go there with the SMELL.
what a dump.
I'm cruising it all the time now, even heard that one of the doorman just got done for beatin the shit outta a customer. The doormen in cruise are so nice, they looked after my mate amazingly when she was a nightmare drunkard the other week. there's even a lovely lady bouncer....so nice to be looked after by a girl! CRUISE TOP. ROSIES PIT OF DOOM.
the place itself is tolerable but my gos the bouncers are the biggest bunch of arse wipes!!!!!
im so glad my bf knocked one of them out last time he was there made my night!!!
goes well with enough eccles cakes. love the place. can understand peoples problems with the bouncers though
Its not the first choice i like to go to in chester! I prefer the much clean and updated club 'Cruise' but its a pain being 18 as they dont let you in there hardly on the weekend saying its 21's.
Rosies is ok i supose, bouncers need to ease up alot with letting people in! even with ID, they let me and my boyfriend in but none of our mates who were right behind us.
I get short changed alot at the bar n then shout at them for my change but they just walk off n serve someone else.
Other than those things above i do have a good night there once the drinks are down me and lots of people i know are out.
Other wise its cruise :D
This place is a complete joke, the bar men spend more time throwing your drink around than they do serving. bar flaring is so fucking dated. it's something only a complete twat would spare his time practacing. it takes a very long time to perfect. heres an idea lads why dont you spend more time learnign how to work effiecently behind a busy bar, then peole might not think of you as such losers. the thing is you really are losers though and unfortunately the world is populsted with a shit load more just like you. please will you all die of aids very soon. thats for the manager, bar staff and especially the door men. ( who proberly have dicks no bigger than that of a chipmunk thanks to all the lovely steds they've stuck in their bodies. hey hers an idea mr doorman, why dont you go home tonight and hit up a huge does of your steds, then lift some really big wieghts then get a brain Hemorrhage and die)
my words and are spoken with true conviction
Sheet Hole
Bouncers are complete tw*ts refused entry for no reason at all.
needs a referb for defo its a dive and u can't move in there!! its true the bouncers do have issues because ive been with ID with my girlfriend not even drunk. They said yes to m girlfiend not to me and my g/f didnt have ID!My personal opiion the bouncers were bullied at school so they went on steriods and now there just got a problem with everyone so a ge a grip!! Apart from that ids could be a good club!!lol
staff are misrable , and the place stinks . i had one good night in there and was only because the dj was playing good music . bouncers are arrogant and are on steriods . the only good thing is that it has a variety of music to dance to.
full of gays, not my scene
A total shambles, you have to queue 4 hours to gain entrnace and gettin in is always a gamble ...as it depends on the how the bouncers & door staff are feeling that night wether u have identification or not .
Later , you have to Q to pay ( which is too expensive for what the club has to offer) the Q to put your coat in the cloakroom , Q to buy a drink , Q to go to the toilet, Q to go outside for a cigarette, and Q to use the cashpoint in there ( which charges apply )
The Bouncers are rude , pushy, and totally up there own arses . bouncers everywhere else ive been have always been polite and welcoming not Rb's/Reflex bouncers. Theyre the most arrogant people ive ever came accross
The prices are rediculous & quality of the drinks are poor ie, Warm alco pop bottles, dirty glasses,cheap wine,
Hygiene is a major issue, there was sick, chewing gum& much more on the floor in there, toilets were blocked and piss & sick everywhere all through my night in there
Overall I was dissapointed to say the least & wont be going there in the near future , I advise people to STAY AWAY
i love this place on a thursday and a sunday, its great 2 have a good time but like every1 has said the bouncers are wankers!!! its true, its allways lads that get refused aswell, pathetic, the manager needs 2 sack them all and get propper 1s otherwise people will be off 2 cruise, i will still go rosies but also will b off 2 cruise aswell so rosies need 2 step up thier game an sort the bouncers out.
what a load of s**t this place is full of students and half of the time locals get refused entry
rosies has the worst roided up bouncers ever, they need to get a grip. think they own the place
Mint night on a thursday, bouncers are complete idiots refuse entry for no reason even if you carry ID, gimps like the person who loves bpuncers above are teh reason why people get kicked out.
Name Removed the boucer is a w*nker he will throw you out for no reason. They think they own the place coz they have bin on steads.
rosies is probably the best club around its amazing on a thursday! well worth it im there every thursday!!!
Good-if u no how to have a good time!
A good club, never had a problem with the bouncers. I always carry ID so they have no reason to refuse me entry. besides some of them are really funny, just gotta get chatting to them
The bouncers are absolute idiots. If your thinking of going - dont bother itsd crap and theres a good chance they wont let you in - for no reason! Lets hope when this new cruise club opens it will put rosies out of business, and put those idiots out of a job!!
RB's is one of the best clubs in the northwest, ive never had an off night there and certainly when it comes to bouncers. On two occasions i have needed there assistance and on both, they have gone firther to help me than most doorman in the country. No one if there honest gets chucked out for no reason and we all forget they are there to protect us and i for one am very glad they are there. give it a go, well worth it...
Been there on many occasions on a Saturday night and been told by the bouncers "sorry lads its memebers night" and insist for tickets, but i know for a fact its not, because i already have friends (females) in there that had no problem getting in. the bouncers realy are a discrace!
the bouncers are the worst ever.its a gambel if u get in some times
a good night out, not bad on the music, but on a saturday night when the place is crammed and the bar is 5 deep... the last thing you want to see is the bar staff stop working so they can do a dance routine to "hot,hot,hot"
A good night out but the bouncers are absolutly out of order and discracefull. I got thrown out on a
Thursday for no reason what so ever after going in many upon many times and never causing the smallest of problems. Beware of the bouncers.
Rating: For a night out 4/5 or 5/5 but the bouncers and manegement 1/5.
