CQ Bar, Melbourne - Review

If you are going to try any club in Melbourne's CBD then CQ should
definitely be on the agenda. There is always a fun time to be had! CQ
is located in the heart of Melbourne - corner of Little Collins and
Queens St, hence the name "CQ" (Collins, Queens).Okay, so you still
need a little more convincing? Well lucky for you I have devised a
list of 5 reasons why you should make your next club visit to
CQ:Number 1: The venue. The club is huge! This is one reason why I
love it. If the dance floor is what your heart desires, then CQ is for
you. There is nothing worse than going to a club, trying to let loose
on the dance floor, and only being able to physically move your body
within a 2cm radius without bumping into the other 20 people squashed
up against you! No, at CQ don't worry about having no space to get
your boogie on, there are plenty of dance floors to let loose and have
a good time!Number 2: The music. Basically whatever floats your boat!
CQ caters for all you House and RNB lovers. Downstairs plays
commercial house while upstairs is all about old school RNB.
Personally, I always tend to find myself upstairs in the RNB room. The
only downfall is the line to the upstairs RNB room can be taunting if
you arrive late. However if you can survive the wait, the outcome is
definitely worth it. On a warm summer's night, the wait isn't actually
too bad. (From my own experiences waiting in that line has made me a
lot of new friends! So they might have been drunk... or maybe I was
drunk. But hey, they sure made my night a whole lot more
interesting!)Number 3: The outdoor areas. So dancing isn't your thing?
Well worry not because CQ is so large that there are plenty of places
to kick back and enjoy the club from a different point of view other
than the dance floor. The outdoor areas are great in summer and
compared to most smoking areas at clubs the ones at CQ (except for the
upstairs one) are quite spacious.Number 4: The toilets. Okay, I can't
speak for you males! But I think every girl will agree with me that
toilets at most clubs are just outright feral and the queue to use the
bathroom is plain out ridiculous. I think I speak on behalf of
everyone when I say that after a few drinks no one enjoys a 1 hour
wait to use the bathroom! CQ bathrooms are large and fairly clean and
the queue is never too long if there is a queue at all!Number 5: So
I've left the best to last... the crowd! The best part of CQ is the
crowd. Not only is it a fun crowd, but it is a good looking one as
well. Ladies...the guys are always dressed up prim and proper in their
finest collared shirts (otherwise they can't get in). And guys, I
don't think you will disappointed with the line up of dolled up
females rocking their hottest outfits and strutting around in their
highest stilettos.All in all, if it's a good night you're looking for;
you now know where to go!
