MJQ Concourse

Tried the new MJQ location for the first time last night. I freakin’ loved it! The layout of the place is so cool. Multiple rooms and levels to dance in with different music. So many bars to get drinks. I didn’t have to wait for anything. They decorated the place great. Parking was super easy in the parking deck for $15 then just follow the signs. Purchase tickets days in advance or you will have to stand in a long line. I purchased mine on a Monday for a Saturday visit. Coat check is available for $5. Staff was very friendly and pointed me in the right direction for everything. I can’t wait to go back! Recommended!!

This new location is really nice, the air feels better here than the old MJQ! I love the set up and design, the bars everywhere, the way the bathrooms are set up. A huge upgrade, cheers to many more years of MJQ!! I don’t come here often but it is an Atlanta staple and I hope it gets its flowers for keeping its doors open for so long!! And i hope the workers make lots of money cuz running a place that big cannot be easy 😭🙏

Club culture is dying and MJQ is a great example of that. First, the atmosphere is unenjoyable and sleazy with the overwhelming amount of single men. I’ve never been to a club where the amount of men outweighed the amount of women. Second, security was awful. They had me wait by myself away from my friends outside the small, narrow bar area located upstairs. Mind you, no one else was around to occupy bar space/order drinks but my group. They also made inappropriate comments towards my friends and I upon first entering. Lastly, again, the amount of clearly single men that have nothing better to do than to harass women that were loitering right outside the exit made us feel unsafe and uncomfortable. Comments and physical motions were made at us as we left. The only good thing were the cheap drinks and the aesthetic. My last statement to MJQ: if you want to remain open, you need to prioritize the safety of the women that come to your club. Women are the reason clubs are what they are- we bring the vibe and the money and you need to cater to us so that everyone (yes that includes men!) can have a great time. What’s a club without that? Men won’t show up otherwise if women stop going. My friends and I won’t be back.

A lot of the staff are RUDE!!! They ruin the experience with their ATTITUDES! The security lady at the entrance YELLS at people for NO REASON! The security inside is constantly looking for something to complain to you about! The bartenders are stressed out because they do not have barbacks to help them:(

Security guard was SO rude to me and my entire group. It was my 21st and I had obviously never been there before, so it was very off-putting for her to basically call me stupid for apparently standing too far away (just following exactly what the person in front of me did) and when I asked her a simple question about getting back the things I couldn't take inside. My friends also had bad experiences with several other staff members. Not sure why people would work in a loud, hot environment with drunk people if they are so irritable! Overall, okay experience, but definitely not worth returning.

Nice vibe/aesthetics with good music, but poor management & service. After my first experience where I was denied entry, it was really disheartening to see others be admitted for the same offense, being skipping the line. I understand and can respect this policy, but it’s not 100% enforced as I witnessed several individuals and even large groups (over 7+) skip the line with no pushback last night. From waiting in a line for over 30 minutes, it also sucks to be met with disrespectful security and can ruin what should be a fun night out.

I never leave reviews—but after last night at MJQ Concourse, I had to. There’s a light-skinned female security guard at the front who deserves serious credit. I watched her stay calm, professional, and firm while dealing with a tough crowd—especially other women who didn’t want their bags checked or refused a quick pat-down. She handled it all with so much grace and respect. What really stood out? She genuinely looks out for the ladies. I saw her step in when a guy was being super pushy and make sure the girl was okay—no drama, just protection. You can tell she cares. That makes all the difference. MJQ is lucky to have her and so are we as guests. As a woman, I felt safer knowing she was there. Thank you, Queen, whoever you are! 10/10 security energy. Will be back. Safety ✅ | Vibes ✅ | Real ones on staff ✅

Consider getting a new person to run the entrance fee. She was just mean for seemingly no reason. Get a different job if you don’t like it. That’s a really bad introduction for your guests right before they enter

I've been coming to MJQ for a while now, and one thing I always appreciate is the presence of the light-skinned female security guard at the entrance. Her job is not easy--I've personally witnessed how some women give her a hard time just because they don't want their bags checked or don't want to be patted down. But she handles it with such professionalism and calm. Honestly, I'm glad MJQ has a female security guard, especially one who clearly cares about the safety and experience of women at the club. She always keeps an eye out, steps in when guys get a little too creepy, and makes sure the women feel safe and looked after. It makes a huge difference and is one of the reasons I keep coming back. Big respect to her and the rest of the team for creating a fun but secure environment.

Solid fun with good music, people, and vibes. The security was on point - just manage your feelings and expectations - and, everything will be fine. Be kind. A great place for a variety of music. It's can get rather warm in this space so dress the part, stay hydrated - dance the night away...

The AC has been broken the last two times I've been and it's so hot people feel like they're gonna pass out. Also Sierra at the front has the worst attitude ever. She literally kills the vibe before you even get inside. It'll be a minute before me and my friends come back. Side note: Gabe the security guard is amazing and made me and my friends feel so safe. Shout out to him! Give him a raise!

The club itself was great -- good music, great energy -- and overall it would have been an easy 5 out of 5. But the experience with the older light-skinned female security guard at the door on April 26, 2025, completely ruined the entry experience. She was extremely rude and hostile for no reason. While I was standing in line, she told me not to look at my own sister, which made absolutely no sense. She then complained about my sister's bag, saying it was "too big" and "took too long" to search -- even though it was literally a small clutch, not even a large purse. She made unnecessary, aggressive comments and clearly took her frustrations out on us. To make it worse, my sister was visiting from out of state, and this was one of the places she was excited to experience while here. Instead, she was met with hostility at the door, which left a bad first impression. As we entered the club and went downstairs near the coat check and ticket counter, we spoke with a kind male security guard about what happened. He told us this actually happens often and encouraged us to find upper management to file a complaint -- meaning this is clearly a known problem that still hasn't been dealt with. Someone carrying that much aggression, should not be working the front entrance where guests are forming their first impression of the night. I will be proceeding with a formal complaint. A great night should never start with unnecessary negativity like that. Management needs to take action immediately before this continues to drive away good guests.

Amazing night out definitely a vibe newer music The drinks were really strong and it was so crowded no sections either which I love ..it's $10 cash to get in the door

It's free on Wednesday. Saturday the line is down the street and you can barely get around but it's one of my favorite spots. Very diverse music and people

My favorite bar/club in Atlanta! Always such a good vibe, I love the people that come here and the music is always on point. Everyone is dancing, non-judgemental, and not creepy (which can be present at a lot of ATL clubs)! The bar can look super busy, but the bartenders are really quick. I definitely recommend getting tickets online in advance (super cheap, like $5) so you can skip the entrance line and door cover fee!!

The music at MJQ was amazing but what truly made it a 10/10 experience was the female security guard on duty. She made my friends and i--along with so many other women--feel welcomed, protected, seen, and safe. I highly recommend more clubs hire people with her energy and presence. She genuinely cares about the well-being of others, especially women!! Give that woman a raise!!!!

I come to mjq a lot and the female security guard is always super helpful and kind. We always get in promptly!

Had an amazing experience. The service was friendly and everyone had a fun time. The owner was super friendly and helpful when people in our group with disabilities needed assistance inside.

E X P E R I E N C E We went as a duo, two girls, on a Wed night. We stopped by Bookhaven for a bite to eat and chat , before we came here to blast our ears out and get some dance on. The entire place looks janky and run down. The entrance just had a few big guys checking ID's. No cover charges for anyone when we went. They did check my friends bag briefly. To enter, we walked down a tunnel. Super dark. A bit creepy but at the end you can clearly see light. M U S I C At a club like this where Im not looking/paying for an upscale experience-purely looking for a dance club, I expect there to always be bomb a-- music, especially given the crowds vibe. I'm knocking down a star bc of the music. Definitely personal preference but i didn't like that the music would switch styles every song. So one would be hip hop then the next is rock then the next is some classic song that everyone can sing to then the next is disco. It was very confusing for me lool i like to move from genre to genre over a period of time, not after every song. I do want to note though, that the transitions were seemless. And I was definitely impressed by that. There were a few DJs manning the booth. I'm a huge people watcher so I had so much fun seeing people sing their hearts out or see the pure happiness that oozes out, by their body language. It gave me so much joy. People are here to DANCE! I'm very impressed. There were a few guys that approached us but so long as I didn't make eye contact, most guys kinda just moved away. No one was creepy. People were respectful and just wanted to be friendly. A few people asked me for my number and when I said no or yes, they didn't try to attack me, which i appreciate. I didn't know that there was actually a smaller room in the back (somewhere) that had more hiphop rap 90s!! I think I would've enjoyed it a lot more. A T T I R E I wore shorts, a light cropped long sleeve and runners. You can be as formal or as casual as you like but it seems like most people leaned towards casual. It's a little chilly when you initially walk down the entrance,, but theres no need for a jacket, even in the end of Dec. Trust me. I get cold very easily and i felt hot in the club, even with the fan blowing and good ventilation. TIP: if u get hot in the club, find the spots on the dance floor that has cool air blowing directly on you. It feels soo good. TIP: there's a stage that anyone can go up/come off of at anytime! Show your moves or hype people up! D R I N K S I did not buy anything here but everything seemed to be very reasonably priced. See photos for pricing. S E C U R I T Y People were clearly drunk but no one caused a scene, trying to fight or was vomiting on others. They were just having a great time. I loved that for them. Throughout the night i saw a few big security guys sitting at the couches, along the edge of the dance floor, and watching. I did see them move through the crowd a few times too. I appreciated their vigilance. R E S T R O O M Females had 4 stalls-two on each side- and the middle had two sinks. The floors were not kept but the toilets seemed decent. One of the stalls, the lock was broken. Overall I enjoyed my experience here and would definitely come back. Probably on a different day with music I like or try the smaller room. I felt quite safe so next time I'd probably go a little harder!! I'm excited.

This place is a staple in ATL. Its survived the test of time and has maintained its same vibe. There are 2 rooms with different djs so depending on the night, you'll get a mix of hip hop, house and disco. Always a good time

I feel like there are a lot of unique nightlife experiences in Atlanta, and MJQ is one of the top spots. It's currently located on Ponce de Leon across from Ponce City Market, underground. I have been here a handful of times. It is cash only, and the drinks are less than $10 so very reasonably priced. The cover is $10 on Fridays/Saturdays. I have never had to wait in a super long line. I tend to listen to more pop and classic rock songs, so the music genres at MJQ are not really my favorite. However, I do enjoy dancing and despise when people go to clubs to just stand around and talk, or as the girlies say, "take laps". I can definitely get down to the beat here! They have 3 rooms so if you don't like one you can move around. There's also seating in all the rooms if you really don't want to dance. Finally, they have a photo booth by the door that costs NOTHING and leaves you with a memory. I think the background on the photos is themed to whichever DJs are performing that night.

BEWARE OF AGGRESSIVE SECURITY You have to pay ahead as I did to skip the line. Then when you go in the security guard harassed you and pushed me multiple times and even on their second time pushing me caused me to twist my ankle and had to leave early because I couldn't walk without my friends supporting me to walk after security pushed me into a wall.

Definitely a vibe and i like the new venue but downstairs was EXTREMELY HOT. As it gets hotter in the summer, they definitely need fans or some type of air conditioning. Can definitely see people passing out.

The vibe was cool, but I was refused water several times (despite buying drinks all night). The bartender was not understanding and it was bothersome being a patron there all night and then being treated that way.

Wow oh wow, I think I might have found one of the best clubs in the country. MJQ Concourse is an unassuming spot, but once you get patted down and enter free on Wednesday, for $5 Thursday, or for $10 Friday and Saturday ($5 online), you'll literally go underground and find yourself in a sprawling space. On the left, there's a ring light and green shrubbery for the gram pics, a horseshoe-shaped bar, and a great dance floor. There's spots to rest up at top and sit down if you need a quick break, also lots of air conditioning because it gets HOT down there. On the right, another dance floor and bar, as well as chairs though no air conditioning there. On the night I went they had disco and it was such a blast, danced the night away. I'll be honest, I'm always afraid of going to places like this as someone with a visual impairment, but I had no problems whatsoever and everyone was very friendly and laid back, just there to have a good time. I met some incredible people and all the music was just as diverse as the crowd there. I've paid way more for way less. If you're looking for somewhere to go tonight in Atlanta, this is the move. EDIT: I saw Lil Nas X here a couple nights ago. I'm gonna miss this place.

My experience with Devon Henderson at MJQ Concourse was nothing short of frustrating. He came across as someone who talks a big game, making grand claims and promises that he clearly couldn't deliver on. He claimed to be an "investor" for the club we were in, but we quickly realized what that title really meant...Devon Henderson is a scammer. His actions did not match his words, and it quickly became evident that he misrepresented himself. Unfortunately, with us letting down our guard for one night in hopes of having a much needed good time, we became his victims for the night. He wasted our time with unprofessional behavior and empty commitments, leaving us feeling scammed and deceived. If you value your time and integrity, I'd strongly advise against working with or trusting him. This was an unfortunate and avoidable mistake on our part, and I hope others don't fall into the same trap. Devon Henderson has no money in his bank account, so if he claims that he will reimburse you in any way, HE WON'T! Please be safe ya'll and do not get your time wasted by no good bums in downtown Atlanta. They are all demons with lost souls, chasing fame and money that they'll never actually know. Atlanta is a wicked town and anyone who fits in should be avoided at all times. Never Again. PS. GIFTY, we know what you are...

My favorite place. Will always love MJQ. That's all. Even once it's gone from iconic Ponce I'll be following them to Underground!

DJ played good dance music, all of the stuff I like. My friend and I absolutely shredded it on the dance floor. I feel like a lot of people were dancing which was good. Least I can ask for

I'll start off by saying that I'm not a dance club type of person, but I have been to a few with friends for various celebrations and evenings out. This is the first one I've been to in Atlanta. This casual, no-frills 21+ dance club with minimal decor, amenities, and an unassuming entrance reminded me of places I frequented during the first month of my freshman year in college (ten years ago). *Smoking is allowed inside* They open at 11pm, are *cash only* and do charge a cover. Find street parking for free, pay a few and park in the lot across the street, or try your luck in the lot of the plaza behind the club. Once you get through the entrance, you walk down a walkway into the basement. The bar is in the middle, the stage is at the end, and there are a few tables to stand at by the bar and a few with seats towards the stage, on the sides of the club. I was here on a Friday night as part of a birthday celebration and arrived early to grab a table and place to sit and place our things. The club had no problems with us bringing a cake and balloons (didn't call ahead or anything). We also had sparkler candles which didn't pose a problem either (not sure if the sparkler candles were ok or they just didn't see them). An employee just came by our table and told us to clean up before we left. Again, I'm not a dance club person, but people seemed to be having fun. It got more crowded around 1230am. People were dressed in everything from a suit to sneakers. You'll just be in for a shock if you're expecting something nice. But if you just wanted to dance, I suppose it's good enough. Leave your nice clothes/shoes/accessories at home. Seriously. The music was pretty good though. One more thing - no cell service if you have AT&T. Verizon works though!

It's hard to find a good hip hop dancing club but if you grow up listening to the music you'll appreciate the vibes given here. Came with a group of 5 at 10 and to our surprise this place was not open yet. There was a strict man sipping coffee in the front seated next to a lady who seemed more hipster than your typical entrance steward. He kept telling us the place wasn't open yet and to stand in line. Anyway 5 minutes later he let us in after a cover of $10 each and a dj was playing electro music which I was concerned about because I am tired of clubs that play this music - I came looking for hip hop! Asked around and a couple of the staff that worked there reassured that there are great djs coming on at 11/12 pm and that the place will fill up (15 mins had gone by and place still looked super empty). They started playing hip hop around 12! The stage was open and a couple of folks who were super into the music jumped up on stage and rallied up the crowd. I appreciated how close the dj booth felt to the sitting booth on the side where we sat. The place is not ventilated enough so if you're dancing it will get swampy. Lastly - cash only for everything. Wish I had time during my visit to check out the live music venue in the back called drunken unicorn.

The crowd that they allow in are horrible. They made me feel extremely unwanted at a club that I used to frequent recently! I will NOT be going back and will ensure my friends don't either!!

Super grungy ...but loads of fun!! F great music and very chill atmosphere. The drinks are ok.

You bartenders were amazing. This is the first time in 30 years of my life that I have been mentally abused by harassed by any security. Your security guard actually ran up directly to me as if I said something while he pushed me out the way. I really enjoy this spot but the security has become really hostile. I would like to hear back about this as soon as possible. Please and thank you for your service

Cool vibe with two different rooms. underground club with trap and hip hop music. They have good deals on shots, but there is usually a $10 cover, except on Wednesdays.

It's a pretty regular club, just underground (literally) and slightly damp as a result. nothing too bad. drinks are reasonably priced, the music is pretty good (just don't expect today's top hits, the djs don't take requests and seem to play stuff that anyone can get down to) and the crowd is hype. the layout is that there are two main rooms, one is a smaller dance-oriented room with a disco ball and the other is more of a vibe-y room with the bar running through the middle. went with a friend and had a good time, save for the usual creeps. the parking was limited so we did have to find parking on a neighboring street which was expected. as for the dress code, i wore a little black dress and felt overdressed tbh, a lot of people were dressed VERY casually like im talking graphic tees and jeans so honestly just throw on whatever when you come here! for my girlies, i would say safety was pretty good. despite the seemingly lax security check at the doors, i didn't see any fights, suspicious people, or ~assaults~ happening. just be vigilant as usual and always try to come as a group, i probably would have felt slightly anxious if i was alone because of the smallness of the venue not leaving many places to go if you needed to hide from someone giving you weird vibes lol.

Cool spot with a chilled vibe parking lot didn't seem sketchy felt comfortable leaving my car there and felt comfortable inside the venue

One of my favorite places in Atlanta to party. Cool vibes lots of dancing and cheap drinks. I always recommend that people come here when visiting.

My favorite hole in the wall and dive bar since moving to Atlanta in 2000. I will miss everything this establishment allowed me to be and how silly I wanted to dance. I will cherish all my time spent here and hope that we will have the opportunity to have another inclusive queer space that encompasses all varieties of music and people. My heart is broken.

MJQ was probably one of the best clubbing experiences I've ever had. The club itself is huge with different music to suit different tastes, staff was friendly, and bathroom lines were short/nonexistent. Beers started at $3 and drinks were overall pretty cheap - cover was $10 cash, but they took cards once you were inside. The bartender with the curly dirty blonde hair was fantastic!! I definitely will be recommending this place to anyone that asks

Last nights experience was a typical night out if it w wasn't for the girl out front handling the cover fee. Literally got there early and already she had some attitude with my bf about how he didn't show his ID to the bouncer fast enough. Kinda soured the mood early in the night when there wasn't even a line behind him. Understandable if it was at the peak of people rushing in but her comment sorta ruined the night and the vibes.

Very fun. Two separate rooms with different vibes of music. Mainly hip hop & trap. Cover is really affordable (cash only!). I went with a group of friends and everyone enjoyed themselves. Drinks are reasonably priced as well. They also have a free Photo Booth set up

Girl... take off that hoochie mama outfit. Get rid of those stilettos. Here's to a "walking like you have stick up our booty, feet bleeding, dress riding up" free night! Feel like wearing sneakers? Go ahead. Want to wear a tank and jeans? They won't stop you. Wear whatever your heart desires! Normally, I try to avoid going to places that charge cover (yes, I'm that cheap), but you know what? Shut up and take my money! I will gladly pay $10.00 to get down on this dance floor. I moved to Atlanta a little less than a year ago from San Francisco. I've grown accustomed to hanging out at casual bars with a dance floor that plays hip hop, r&b. Here in Atlanta, I've had trouble finding places like that. Opera, Compound, Havana Club, etc... those places are fun, but not always. Sometimes, I want to dance to something other than edm and trance. Finding this place was a little confusing. It's right across from Murder Kroger in the back by the small parking lot. Park at designated lots. DON'T PARK AT KROGER'S. They will boot your car. I wasn't sure if I was walking up to the right spot because there's no big sign that says MJQ, but you can tell by the crowd. It almost looks like a shack at the entrance. Plus there's a food cart parked right there. (smart). This is a 21+, cash ONLY joint. They do have ATMS, so if you happen to run out of cash, you're covered. The do allow smoking, which is unfortunate. The drinks are alright, not that strong, but a little better than watered down. It doesn't really get that crowded until midnight. I was there at 11:30, and the dance floor was basically empty. I appreciate how this place actually uses their AC. I was actually really cold before it got crowded. I felt the AC on blast, which is a good thing. So by the end of the night, around 3, it was hot, but not like a sauna. It also helps since they do allow smoking, which I hope they will change. They should ban smoking on the dance floor at least. The music was won me over. Old school hip hop and r&b. Very nostalgic. It's awesome when you hear a song for the first time in yeeeears and everyone is just singing along. The DJ was sick. Mixed the songs very well. The MC was very entertaining as well. Now the crowd is all over the place. Pretty diverse in ethnicity, age and style. There were also a few bboys who laid it down on the floor! Everyone is pretty friendly and just want to have fun, but you do see some people who are a little drunk or maybe just horny and want to get all nasty and grinding up on the dance floor. And no matter where you go, you'll meet the creepy men who are staring at you and trying to make a move on you. I don't hold it against the venue though. I just want to warn you ladies... if you can't handle crowds and guys trying to dance with you, then stay off the floor. There were quite a few guys being a little inappropriate, but just walk away or politely say something to them. Obviously, they should know better, but at the end of the day, they'll do what they want to do. I ended up coming back here on a Wednesday. Ladies free and guys are $5.00. If you are bored on a Wednesday night and want somewhere to go, this is the place. It felt like a normal night out on a weekend. There were so many people and everyone just dancing and having fun. It's also not as crowded on Wednesdays than on the weekends. There's still a really good crowd though. I was mainly hanging out with my group of friends and they were definitely great company. That helped make this place even more fun! Here's to you, MJQ, for giving me hope in Atlanta's nightlife scene. I'll see you soon.

I've been going to MJQ for over 2 decades... best DJ's in the A... resident DJ's have always been awesome... guest DJ's, same. Cannot wait to go back. It's been a few years since last I was there... it's a cool spot since it's literally under the parking lot. Always cool to see a first timer's reaction. Love love love!!!

Great music. Diverse crowd. Aesthetically pleasing. Free entry most nights. I definitely recommend.

First time going for my friends birthday and I got in trouble for taking a Snapchat video of her dancing. The guy said when someone has a flash on they assume that something is wrong ... but I told him it was her birthday and he still proceeded to tell me I couldn't do that... honestly what's the point of even going out and trying to celebrate my friends day...

MJQ is always a fun time but I will say the cash only thing is kinda annoying...not sure if they're trying to be edgy or what. The music is usually great but my fav part is def the diversity of people. Everyone goes here for a good time - black, white, hipster, redneck - you name it!

Lots of fun and shenanigans. Also has a very queer friendly vibe. Hats off to the staff who are dealing with some of the most unruly, debaucherous customers. I was likely one of them! Nonetheless, I left my phone on a Saturday night and they were so gracious getting it back to me. Was able to reach management through instagram. Normally they are closed Sun thru Wed but they arranged for me to pick it up Monday at their sister bar.

Yoooooooo!!!! Why did it take me forever to finally venture out to this spot!?!! Look, you need a place to just dance without having to get dolled up. Sometimes you want to dance your A** off and after awhile, heels hurt your feet. That's why you need to come here. Throw on a shirt, some sneakers, make up if you feel like it, and just dance! Fellas, you can just be you and wear whatever. There's rules for fellas: Don't be a wallflower, just get up and dance and I promise you, another chick will dance with you. Oh ladies, this brings me to a very important tidbit: the fellas here are very friendly. They are very nice and not in a pick up way. They're just cool. The AC is on point. MJQ knows how to keep it at a sub zero temp to make sure we all don't get sweaty and nasty. The music is on point! Hip hop room, old school room, and another room we didn't know existed until a bunch of tuba players came marching in (horns blasting and all) into the old school room and into another room we didn't know existed. So, we did what any curious person would do; we followed them into that room and were met with with a live band in action. It was so dope. So, come check this place out. Take pics in the photo both section near the entrance (it's free) and come find me on the dance floor!

Such a friendly group of "party goers". Drinks were reasonably priced, the music was on point and the bar service was great. Although incredibly dark inside, this place satisfied the needs of a good time.

So. Much. FUN. MJQ is an interesting place for the uninitiated and definitely seemed off to me the first time that I visited. The whole thing is in what I was told is an old underground parking garage. Not sure if that's true or not but the underground part definitely is. Being from the Baltimore/DC area, the very first thing that I cued in on was the complete lack of security. I mean every now and again you may see APD hanging around the door but I've definitely been there at times when they were not present. As this spot caters to what can be a VERY diverse crowd, I was a little on guard my first visit. I'd say by about hour 2, my concerns had vanished into the darkness and hard beats at the bottom of the landing... Some things you should know... Parking isn't great - get there early, carpool, uber, get a piggy back ride from a friend, whatever it takes. Did I mention try to get there early? Because the door WILL back up at some point and you'll be in line while I'm dancing and drinking all the alcohol at the bar... Speaking of which there are two bar areas, one on the "hip hop" side which is to your left at the bottom of the walk way and another in the "red room" to your right. Each side accepts cash only and plays very different music from one another, typically. Generally both get pretty packed and there is something for everyone to dance to, bob heads to, or hold up the walls. But Chris.. is it clean? Don't wear nice shoes here people. The floors aren't great and they will likely get stepped on by someone who lookgs like me apologizing while trying to get to the bar. There is no dress code here that I have seen either. I dress comfy, would wear pajama pants if I could, wait... I probably could.. Oh, the bathrooms, well those can be interesting but for the most part should be fine. Though one time I went in and there was a clog with a log that seemed to stretch unbroken forever, that guy was definitely talented with the no pinch. I mentioned 2 things earlier.. the crowd is diverse, expect that. By far some of the nicest and coolest people I've spoken to have been in this place. Many are regulars there from what I could tell and I can see why. The other thing I mentioned, the complete lack of security, goes hand in hand with what I just said regarding the people who go here. I've been there quite a bit since November 2017 and have yet to see one fight, spat, drama, or anything that might make me otherwise question the safety of this spot. Maybe I'm just going on the right nights but I doubt it.. If you can't tell, I like this place! I look forward to going when in town (which I will be again soon). Check it out! If you're easy going, like good music, and are in to have a good time.. this is your spot. Hell, even if you're just into people watching you can't go wrong here! MJQ folks can get pretty wild, or so I'm told..

Went here with a gf weeks back and had an enjoyable time. Make sure to bring cash since this place was a cash only venue, even the coat check was cash only ~ $3. :( This place was separated into two areas with its relative DJ and bar. One side had the hip hop and rap while the other had the more pop and 90's vibe. The scene here was mixed with all types of crowds and ages. The cover is $5 btw. Beers start at $3. Parking is free if you can find a spot.

Club hopped and this was one of the locations. I'm a house head and so enjoyed the music. The DJs did that. I truly enjoyed myself. If you are looking for HOUSE and not a judgmental individual, you will love this spot. There are two music genre in one locations. House and Rock on the other side. Queen was playing. YESSSSS

Nice little hole in the whole (if that's really a thing). Get here early to park in the free lot or side streets. Can also avoid the cover if you arrive close to when they open. DJs are dope and the crowd is diverse, just a good time. Don't bother wearing "nice clothes" though, not that type of place. I slight think you can get away with PJs if you're really about it like that.

Check your judgement and sense of smell at the door. People do not come here to do a two step and a cute shimmy ever here and there. They come to DANCE dance, from push up contests to full out battles, it was a good time. The crowd is very diverse, as well as the music. Bring cash if you plan to drink.

Dead. Very loud but very dead. I was told Cullen was the DJ to look for but he wasn't spinning this Friday night. Instead, the place was loud and not crowded and no one seemed to be enjoying themselves. A complete waste of the $10 cover.

Welcome to the "no judgment" zone! The location: tucked behind Chipotle restaurant off Ponce de Leon, in a VERY tight parking block. At the door: I arrived with some friends around 11pm. We waited for about 5 minutes and then the bouncer let us in. There was no cover charge for us. The people: You will see tattooed, geeks, tree-huggers, musicians, preppy, jetsetters, ghetto-fabulous, dread heads, locals, old, young, college kids, white, black, asian, hispanic and everything else in between...oh yeah! Lots of couples were there all booed up. My favorite aspect is there are way more guys than girls in the place. It appeared to be about a 10:1 ratio of men to women, respectively. The men are so mannerable here. I heard a very polite "excuse me" at least 4 or 5 times that night from guys trying to pass through the dancefloor or get to the other side of the room. Every guy I danced with asked me "would you like to dance?" I was pleasantly surprised. The music: I heard Sugarhill Gang, Foxxy Brown, Case, Peter Gunz, Lil' Mo, Fabolous, Aaliyah, Lil' Kim, P. Diddy, Pastor Troy, Outkast, Michael Jackson and more! I visited on a Friday night which is Old-School Hip-Hop night. The only complaint I have about the music is the D.J. would cut off the song too quickly. Right as the crowd was getting pumped up, he would switch songs and you would hear a loud "awwww" come from everybody. People actually DANCE in this club! I mean REALLY DANCE and it was so much fun to actually go to a club in Atlanta where the dancefloor was packed like sardines with men and women jamming to their favorite songs. The bar and drinks: It is your regular center island bar. It was super-packed by the end of the night. Our shots were $5 a piece. The dress code: Casual, casual, casual...I wore an above-the-knee dress with flat leather sandals but my friends wore jeans, sneakers and a blouse. Most of the fellas had on jeans and a polo shirt or nice t-shirt. It is best not to wear heels and be as comfortable as possible because you will leave smelling like an ashtray. The format: I love how MJQ has adequate and FREE seating all around the club. There are these high step lounge booths attached to the outer walls where you can sit and have a drink in between trips to the dancefloor. At MJQ, it is no frills, no fuss. Just be yourself, smile and have fun. SPECIAL NOTES: (1) very smokey environment, if smoke bothers you, you will not last 10 minutes here (2) cash only, MJQ does not accept credit or debit cards (3) The bathrooms are horrible! It smelled like someone died in it. The lock latch was broken, so I had to hold my door closed with one hand while I balanced myself over the toilet to pee and hold my purse with my other hand. No mirrors, so if you're one of those cliqued up "pretty girls" your feelings are gonna be hurt when you go to check your lipgloss. (4) MJQ is like a juke-joint/hole-in-the wall atmosphere, so if you are looking for 5 star service with a skybox VIP seat...go to another club homey.

If you are into places where it is normal to sit down and whisper to your friends over cocktails while hotel music plays lightly in the background with dimly lit lights then this is not the place for you! MJQ's is where you go to party the night away. You go here when you want to have nights that resonate in the most amazing memories of your life. You can come as you are and be whomever you please. You don't have to ever pretend just to fit in because everyone fits in here. When you first walk in you will walk into a Batman like cave/tunnel and will be thinking to yourself, "What am I getting into?". When you get to the bottom of the "cave" you will see a bar and a dance floor and you will hear music pounding through the speakers. They play all types of music so you don't have to worry about hearing the tunes that you prefer. About 99% of the people will be dancing the night away so you don't have to worry about any issues other than your shoes potentially getting stepped on. I almost forgot about the bartenders!!! The drinks always taste awesome. I guess that could be because I'm already somewhat inebriated by the time I get here for the most part but I digress. They are so friendly it's as if you are talking with your life long friends and they just happen to make drinks. It is what I would call the perfect nightclub. Great music, eclectic crowd, great staff, and better drinks. Do yourself a favor and check out MJQ's. If you look up fun in the dictionary I am sure MJQ's will be a synonym.
