Dance ! Dance ! Dance ! They have goth night on Saturday, 80’s music on Sunday, and off-the-beaten-path performances throughout the week. We love the size, space, and staff at this popular venue.

If you want to get away from the prim & proper take a stroll into this character-filled dance club . The drinks are strong & cheap and the clientele will not disappoint.

Houdah Abualtin

Great music , awesome DJs , great service, and the best damn dance club there is! Many nights have no cover and loads of amazing dark music . <3

Andrea Menzies

The best 80s and Gothic club in Austin. A very friendly place to see DJs and concerts .

We really hope you're not wearing open-toed shoes . We also really hope you don't use the restroom . Most of all, we really hope you romp until your heart's content.

Rachel Mercer

Great venue with friendly bartenders and cheap drinks . The ultimate bonus? Original cabinet games and mega Jenga on the patio !

The only way we've figured out how to beat the heat in this AC-free venue is to keep the cold beverages flowing. Drink up and get down!
