• good, afro-banging, glitterball-loving fun

  Prepare to step back to the 70's. A lot of fun is to be had here! It often has good drinks promotions to save your pocket-burning tendancies, and occassionally sells massive glasses and a good afro wig for you to complete your outfits - good for photos; you'll know where you were! The atmosphere is very friendly and it's not usually too busy (esp on weeknights) so it's fairly easy to get to the bar and make your shapes on the dancefloor without overheating. The clientelle is fairly broad, as you can imagine, ranging from the more mature (who can remember the 70's) through those who were born in the 70's.. to those who have no claim to it, but just love the 70's vibe.

• Good fun

  I wouldnt want to go there regularly, but the times i have been to Flares have been great fun.You can buy a huge range of fun accessories from the bar, such as oversized star-shaped glasses, fake moustaches and afro wigs which are always fun! People also often turn up in fancy dress!Drinks prices aren't too obscene, but not as cheap as some of the other nearby clubs.. but Flares is worth a visit, if purely for the kitsch 70s fun that it provides!It can get very busy on the weekends, but is less so during the week.

  Flares is always busy, often with a long queue. I've no idea why because inside it's certainly a little rough at times.Lean on a surface and you'll have to peel yourself off - so much spilt sticky drinks everywhere.It's pretty mad in here, and quite drunken. Sadly, they have the occasional fight, and the bouncers are pretty keen inside.I remember a guy walking in and starting a fist fight, the employed dancer paused for a few seconds before carrying on - like he sees it every night.Good 70s tunes and all rather silly but I've never seen a fist fight inside a bar, until I came to Flares.One for your mum.
