A club Worth MISSING
With this club on the steay downward spirle it is my sad duty to inform you that this club has very little patronage, and to make matters worse they also have seedy bartenders, who if they feel you are to inebriate, will try to steal a dollar or two,m for every drink you buy, an then throw you out when you ask them for proper change.

I used to tolerate this place
Never liked the predictable music or filthy bathrooms. after I watched a bartender split a can of Diet Coke between two plastic cups right in front of me and then charge $8 I sent an email to complain. The response said "such and such other bar does this and their soft drinks are lower quality". I decided I'll likely never go there again.

Worst owner/staff
Yesterday, my boyfriend, along with his friends, were kicked out of Club Edge (Edge Night Club) for asking for Tap Water in order to sober up. This is the second time I've seen this happen... When the bartender refused to provide him with tap water, he suggested he drinks from the bathroom. he then asked for a cup, but he informed him that no cups were allowed in the bathroom and that he should use his hands. Surprised at the bartender's response, my Boyfriend's friend said he would tweet his friends about this incident. Apparently, this was grounds to kick them out along with his boyfriend. This all happened as he was in the bathroom. Last time, I was with a friend at the Edge's Rooftop Patio. There was a very drunk girl at the bar who was asking for water and apparently had no money left for bottled water. My friend made a comment to the bartender saying "Isn't it illegal to refuse water to your clientele according to your smart serve certification?". Apparently, the same bartender, didn't like this either, so he fetched the bouncer and made his way to the dancefloor. He waved his finger in my friend's face screaming at the bouncer "That's him! That's Him! Kick him out!" Swatting the bar Tender's hand away was a bold move that got my friend his ankle broken in a struggle with the bouncer. The way this club treats its clientele is abhorrent. "Go drink from the tap in the bathroom with your hands" is not a way to keep clientele coming back nor any way to treat a human being.

only too true
How sad that Ottawa still has this silly little pig of a bar. Years ago we had many bars to choose from , now this is the bar in town and it looks like a freak show. Most gays left for Toronto - I suggest the same to others

Awful
This club is the biggest piece of shit... I would say avoid it but there's nowhere else to go. The place is a total ripoff, it's in a basement that makes me think of what the underground gay bars must have been back in the day (read: disgusting). Overpriced, boring, shitty bar staff and in general no regard for its patrons. Hopefully some competition comes along to wipe this place out for good.
