So I'm giving this place 3 stars because while it's so much fun, the service is really lacking.
I've been twice now and both times were so much fun, until the last one wasn't. First off, the cover is high and fluctuates $15? $20? depends on the night. I get it, this is one of the only legit after hours spots, but it's still Philly. The drinks are also kind of high in price.
I love that there are 3 floors with different music- depending on your mood you can choose a room and still have fun.
Now the trouble. The last time I was there, it was Friday and not crazy busy, but a decent sized crowd. I had a bit to drink, but I wasn't very drunk. I could still walk, function and all just fine. My friends and I went down to the bottom floor to use the bathroom and while going down, one of the bouncers took my arm and escorted me out. I didn't understand what was going on until we got outside and he said I had to leave. What?! He said I was stumbling on the stairs and too drunk to stay. Like dude, I have on 4 inch heels, your stairs are uneven, it's dark and I'm not 100% sober, of course I'm going to teeter. But, he didn't care. I told him my friends and my stuff were still inside and he told me to call them and tell them to meet me outside. Their signal in there isn't the greatest and my calls kept going to voicemail and my messages were waiting to send. It's winter, the middle of the night, and while there are people around- including a few bouncers- I'm still a young woman alone. I'm crying when my friends come out and a manager walks up asking what happened. I told him and he kindly apologized for the situation and told us we could go back in if we wanted. This is after I stood outside for about 20 minutes. Ugh.
This was a real turn off. I had a lot of fun the first time and the second before this whole ordeal, but I don't know if I'll be back.
