Hands-down the best club in the world, nevermind Glasgow! Perfect layout, clear, crispy & punchy soundsystem and a roster of DJs and live acts to impress the most critical of electronic music fans. Standout nights include Optimo & Subculture - keep an eye out for midweek events & random promos & be prepared to queue for the bigger nights (it'll be worth it). Added bonus: reasonable door staff.

So the Doorman steps forward.. "What music are you looking for tonight?" I say any - I like all music! "Sorry not good enough you can't come in! - We only want people in the club who want the specific music we play!" I tell him I'm in the hotel next door.. he says "yeah that's not going to get you in the club"

Okay fair point but.... is it not my decission what music I "club" too - I'm an adult! Allow me to be the judge of my evenings entertainment..

Had the guy said "hey Mr this is an xyz night night... I'm not sure its really going to be your scene" then maybe I wouldnt leave a 1* review but to jerk me off in front of his cronies I thought was low level bully boy tactics!

Ive never been refused entry anywhere in my life and the Sub Club isnt exactly the most solubrious of places on offer - readers beware!

I hope this filters down to the doorman in question next time he may refuse entry to a less tollerant human being! Who may well take him to task!

I have traveled a lot and have been to very good techno clubs all over the world and I have to say the sub club is one of the top addresses! Every time a very good line up, a more than outstanding system, cool design and more than friendly counter staff and bouncers. I highly recommend every techno lover to visit this club when visiting Scotland!

Awesome vibes, great club. A true gem. Their door policy is the best. "Why are you here?" Perfect question. I always tell my friends about this place and the bouncer and the rumour about how the only fight ever to break out in the place was met by the dancers being so offended they took it upon themselves to throw the perpetrators themselves out the doors and into traffic. Staff hadn't needed to a thing. Who knows if it's true. Legend.

Wish I lived in Glasgow for vibes like this.

It was worse than bad, the chaser very bad spoken, the horrible interior and the drinks too expensive. Terrible place in Glasgow. I have traveled to many countries and they have never treated me like this.

A friendly bouncer until he read on our ID that we were French. He then immediately refused us saying that we had drunk too much. Same observation as for the Garage. But apparently we're not the first to have this happen. To flee

I wanted to go to the subclub for years and finally after going I wasn't disappointed. Had a great night, i get why the bouncers ask you what's on to keep the riff raff out. One of the bar men was a bit of a bell end but overall it was grand.

Staff are ridiculous. they spent 15mins arguing with some guys in the queue then had the cheek to charge us entry. we had free entry before half 11 and the tickets stated be in the venue before then. I was and the staff chose to argue with 3 guys for 15mins instead of letting us in. absolute joke of a place. when told we have been in the venue for 15mins the reply we got was you should have came earlier. absolute zero customer service skills.

Got to the front door the bad teeth (some of them are missing ) security staff said "show id" as I showed Id the bouncer then said (without looking at said id) "I'm not letting you in as I reckon you're probs trouble" . And he ruin my new year eve. Even I paid on online and had a ticket. Guy just told me he checks in camera and told me I did trouble before. It s totally lie. That guy looks like crack head , probably that night he smoke a lot of crack that s why he told me i reckon you . I won t go back... stay away from this dirty place is not worth

Got quizzed intensively on the door but being a powerful sith getting in was never in question, a nice crowd, mostly blokes having a bop. I'll definitely go again next time I'm up from London...

I saw a person who appeared to have an orange for a head across the other side of the club, but they left before I managed to catch up with them!

Absolutely amazing. Been to clubs all over the world but subclub really lived up to the hype. Can understand the questions on the door because the dance floor is full of a great bunch of people really enjoying themselves.

Can we please have more places like this in London, so I don't have to fly up here all the time!

shh no tears.

shh no tears.
only dreams now.
there is no need to be upset.
our jimmies are eternal.

It is without a doubt THE BEST club in Glasgow.

It is without a doubt THE BEST club in Glasgow.

I've been coming here since student days of lore 22 years ago... And will continue to fir years to come.

Why?... because it is not your designer shirt and shiny shoe kinda place or designer trainer for that matter either, but if that floats your boat then you will - shock horror- still be Iet in. Because its not about how you dress, it's about whether you appreciate the MUSIC. And the guys on the door tend to have a good nose for this and haven't lost it over the last few decades.

You will find all ages here, as the sound system is phenomenal, the best in Glasgow - nay - the UK. In fact I'll have you know it is a well noted and respected club on the European clubbing scene.

I can't I'm afraid describe the music as I'm not on 'fleek' with music genres so apologies if I'm way off the mark - but it's along the lines of house/garage/trance/dance/rave/drum and bass. You will no doubt still find clips or even full sessions on Soundcloud or the subclub website somewhere to give you a clearer idea.

If you're into the commercial top 40 chart, 100000to the power of10bpm music, dancing round handbags (or KO ing people with your handbag) in 20inch heels - then stay away - you won't like it and neither will the people who's toes you've just impaled.

Even if you are a member of the above gang and still appreciate deep soul and heart thudding bass (occasionally funky - depends on the nights DJ) music then you're still welcome!

As long as your not off your t**s as you won't get in and you promise not to heel impale or knock people out with your handbag

P. S yes, the clientele and music has difffered slightly over the years because times move on... But I stand by the above statement as no other place has ever matched it...

Used to be my favourite club but after a disgraceful experience from management and their stance regarding customer safety and harm reduction, I won't be returning ever again. On a cold winter night last year I was in the club with a few friends, went up to the bar to get a round in and was approached by a member of staff who asked me to come with them so I bemusedly followed asking what was up until I was walked to the door and told I needed to sober up before I would be let back in. Was pretty surprising to say the least seeing as I wasn't really that drunk, intoxicated sure, but not causing any issues; I happily to admit that I've been in much worse states in the past.

Anyway that wasn't really the issue I had, I appreciate the need to remove people from the club if they're causing issue, however after trying to speak with the bouncers I was told I needed to 'go for a walk' and come back in a while. Now I don't need to tell you how terrible that is to advise someone who potentially could be in a bad state to go off BY THEMSELVES in what was no doubt below freezing at 2am. Talk about harm reduction, you'd hope that nightclub management would be far more careful from previous tragedies such as in the Arches. Absolutely disgraceful for a club like subbie to have such a stance, can't imagine what would happen if they told someone who was in a really bad state to go off by themselves into freezing cold Glasgow with little more than a t-shirt (I wasn't allowed to get my jacket from the cloakroom).

Such a shame for once was a legendary club

Great club. Amazing DJ's with great music and awesome sound quality. Friendly bar staff. No problems with the other guests either here - just good vibes. Not the cheapest bar though. Security keep the people who aren't there for the music out.

Nice music and place. Actually I expected it way more smaller, but is huge! and the music is awesome. I would totally recommend it. I've read some door policies experiences and yes... depends on how are you dressed up and the people you are with..etc. Don't complain about door policies, they decide who's in and who's not. Simple.

Like another person said, me and the missus got up to the top of the q and the doorman asked us what type of music we are looking for. I told him rave/house music. He looked at me and asked me who was DJ'ing here tonight. I told him who was playing,(coz I googled it beforehand). I also said that I'm just over from Ireland for the weekend and I'm trying this place out. He let us in,but just before he let us in, he said that next time we come up,we should find out exactly who is playing in this venue as it's for local people only. This fella on the door was of Indian origin looking. He was probably a HUN as well. It's people like me who get in are paying your nights wages, you HUN.

This is absolutely one of the best venues in the country! DJs Harri and Domenick use to play over there weekly, Black Madonna, Peggy Gou, Palms trax and George Fitzgerald use to have gigs over there along the year. But here comes an ADVISE: keep in mind the name of the host DJ and buy your tickets as early bird, not only to get a lower price, but also because the security may impeach your entry if you don't consider you have the profile of the someone who comes to these sort of night life. Have a great time :)
