This club for me is becoming my new favourite in Sheffield. Drinks prices are good and more importantly the staff there are really friendly, far nicer than Ledders, Republic etc. I'm not at all associated with the club, I've simply been reading club write-ups recently and thought it was worth mentioning. Thought they deserved a good pat on the back!

:) :) :) :) Thanks :) :) :) :)

I remember when it first opened as Cha Cha's - used to love that place.
Is the restaurant still open upstairs ?

Cha chas has been closed for nearly 8 months... We now have a lounge cocktail bar upstairs which is open till 3am. Our 4 bartenders have been nominated for UK bartender of the year and we play different styles of music like funk, soul, 50s and 60s rock n roll etc.
Midweek we have live acts from OPUS and Disgraceful Behaviour and I'm hoping to announce a new addition to the fold very soon.. :thumbsup:

Matt, I knew that downstairs had changed to DQ'S but was hoping that upstairs was the same.

If I say "karaoke" you will know who I am :thumbsup:

Matt, I always pester one of your staff (a very hot brunette gal) about getting a gig/possible support slot! She actually said one of you listened on an office computer whilst I was there and said it sounded cool!

the band is VIB GYOR, if you check out our myspace that would be rad. We have a second single out in March and some great gigs being booked, we'd LOVE to play DQ sometime! We've played with some great people in the past (Goldfrapp, headlined the unsigned tent at Leeds Fest 2006). Let us know what we can do to play there! Cheers dude.

I've been to DQ's once. I found the bar staff to be really irritating! Scenario.... "Can i have 2 Smirnoff Ice Please?" Bar Tender "We don't do alco-pops!" Me. "Well, i'll have a bottle of that ****ing pink champagne then." Arggghhhhh. Just wanted to slap his pubescent little face with a girder. It was just the way he addressed me. As though I wasn't worthy of his service. Little T**t.

Can't say I've experienced that, but then I wouldn't ever go into a bar and ask for an alco-pop. ;) Especially DQ - which ain't that sorta place.

What sort of response would you like him to have come out with? An alternative to "We don't do alco-pops" maybe "Alco-pops are crap, so we don't sell them" or "They're a waste of money, there's no profit margin and they tend to attract chav's"?

:hihi:

Last time I went I'm sure I saw Smirnoff Ice in the fridge...

Captain Hook - You really are missing the point! Ha Ha Ha

This sounds really weird to me... 1 We do sell alcopops and 2 we don't sell rose champagne downstairs.. The staff here get rave reviews most of the time but i apologise if on this visit you were not happy with the service provided...

Sorry. My apologies! I was totally on another level that night. I was upstairs!

I was just trying to bring some humour to the conversation ^_^. At least Smirnoff Ice is slightly better than WKD.. :-"

Sorry. My apologies! I was totally on another level that night. I was upstairs!

If you aren't sure which level of the building you were on, maybe you misinterpreted his attitude? ^_^

On another note, I've never actually been upstairs... only downstairs. What's it like?

If you're into cocktails you need to come give it a try.. :thumbsup:

DQ's been great for ages, they fed me for free during the World Cup and I can't remember ever having a bad night in there. They've also managed to wangle a Circus residency which the first one was quite possibly the best night of last year musically :D

And no I don't work there............ I am however still waiting for my free CD from the last Circus, grrrrrrrrrrrr :)

This club is ace. Jungle on a Thurs, to die for. And what about old skool 90's night? You know that went down well, when's the next?;)
