whataboutya · 27-11-2008 3:20pm #1

Hey Guys,

Just wondering does anyone know about this new nightclub Scarlets in limerick ?? Heard it on spin and saw the ad in the post today just wondering has anyone been there yet ? I work in a small office and were not having a big xmas party and think here maybe a good spot ???

Amazotheamazing · 27-11-2008 3:25pm

Is that the one that used to be the Bank?

whataboutya · 27-11-2008 3:28pm

i thin its over the bank im going to give them a ring after 5 and see what they say?

RINO87 · 27-11-2008 3:30pm

rebranding that place AGAIN????

liked it when it was the greenroom.

AnCapaillMor · 27-11-2008 3:42pm

it was better when it was just a bank, alot cheaper and you felt better in the morning too.

Mc Love · 27-11-2008 4:02pm

Is it just a new name or have they redesigned it?? Because if they havent....then its the same place everytime.
I do like the rooftop smoking area even though i dont smoke

TheLoc · 27-11-2008 4:13pm

Is the origninal night club big? I've never been in it. never even knew there was a club above the bank.

Millie · 27-11-2008 4:25pm

I can't believe they are opening this place again.
I liked it last time round even though there were only about 10 of us in there!

raspberryroad · 27-11-2008 4:30pm

Was in there friday night one word CLASS. very different from the greenhouse days all remoddled and has alot of red and brown loads of furniture id say it would hold about 350 or so saying that they had about 200 in on friday. didnt recognise any of the staff from around the town, heard through the grapevine that its a girl from miami that bought it and did it up and stuff very different to anywhere in town , only prob its in a ****ty area for parking and the like but its worth a gawk .. added them on bebo monday and it says that if offically launching 5th dec must try and rangle an invite

Yeah fairly big, have been at a few partys there! Wonder if this new one will be different or the same as its always been, regardless of what you have said RR

bazz26 · 27-11-2008 4:52pm

Will anybody really bother venturing that far up O'Connell to go to a night club?

Judging by the success of the previous owners I would say no. You never know it could become a temperary hangout for the Limerick Post's afterdark posers.

whataboutya · 27-11-2008 4:53pm

I have just rang the club and spoke to the manager, She has said that it is a strictly over 25`s club, they have a very strict music policy no dance music and they do table service at no extra cost ,she said that it has been renovated to a very high standard and its based around old style new york supper club ( dont know what that is though) and a boudoir... she told me i can come up and view it whenever i like , she said its set price of 10euro both fridays and saturdays , she offered to email me the wine ,beer and liquor list & they also do a steak up until 1.00am......... its nothing to do with the bank and they have a side entrance

think this maybe just what were looking for and if the staff are as nice as she was and the place is as nice as she said could be very good for the city .
ill let you all know if we decide to go and what its like.

This is a fact bazz. the only way its going to attract loads of people is if it's actually unbelievably class. not like teds or whatever its called now. publicity stunt.

Thats great, must be worth trying out! Although they will probably be looking for the bentley barkers crowd....we were heading in there one night and they said not tonight, the reason they gave....yer a bit young

whataboutya · 27-11-2008 5:03pm

Im actually a bit excited about it ( this is what my life has amounted to

) was beginning to feel very old going out on a saturday night hopefully this will provide the late 20`s and early 30`s somewhere to go and avoid the usual cattle marts..

Aubars and Nancys are spots for the late 20's to late 30's if i am not mistaken

whataboutya · 27-11-2008 5:24pm

Aubars is now catering for 18+ and nancys is great but its always so crowded

A little off topic but I was actually in Ted's (or Tatle Club as it is known now) last weekend with the girlfriend and they have given it a bit of a makeover. There is now a VIP area where dirty old married buisness men with a few quid to spend can now hang out and look important in there. It was funny watching the Delboy Trotters of this world being waited on by a young hostess who looked like she was sent there as punishment by her parents for dropping out of school.

That VIP area should be called the OAP area.

Magicman1 · 28-11-2008 10:56am

Sounds like a break from the norm to me! No dance music, great! no scangers looking for tiesto or choons! sounds like a good place to try out. Like other posters I also feel old in d'icon or trooms so this may be just what we needed! Anyone know how to con an invite for the opening night please?

By the way, how posh is that? steaks til 1am and it's called a supper club!

Sounds like the type of place the rugby jocks might hang out though - only good thing about that is the following of brown thomas ladies that follow them....

whataboutya · 28-11-2008 11:13am

id say ring them ,the ad on the post lists a number :061 481546 and ask for Sinead the nightclub manager as i said in the last posts very helpful.

Millie · 28-11-2008 11:54am

Wow, looking forward to giving this place a whirl.
Us over 25/30's folk defo need somewhere to hangout.

Aidric · 28-11-2008 1:39pm

There's an awful smell of desperation off this thread.

Desperate for somewhere good to go out.

your my lady · 28-11-2008 4:23pm

I'm surprised that s lot of people here seem to be buying this. This is just The Bank. They had a posh restaurant. That didn't work. They revampted it to a steak house. That didn't work. They changed it to a night club. That didn't work. They changed the name....and again. And it's a bit pathetic that they put out a rumour that some chic from Miami bought it. No doubt to create a glam buzz about the place. Sad!!!

have to agree, and I'm usually ultra positive about any new development in Limerick.

I hope it's a big success, I'm a little surprised the Green rooms weren't, considering who was running it, but I expect it'll be the usual story.

Pam21 · 28-11-2008 4:47pm

Ah guys yere a bit negative bout it aren`t ye !! well the ad looks different in the post and the bebo page looks nice and there going for an older crowd so maybe we should not be bringing up the greenhouse and other things that were there before??? Its a change and there providing a different venue for the city and if they werent it sounds like some of ye would just be complaining that there werent enough places to go .... sure its no harm on checking it out ... and i was talking to a work colleague today who explained that its true about the miami connection so i dont think its some hype the bank owners have put out .......

zuroph · 28-11-2008 5:21pm

got my invites anyway, so im gonna call up and try the steak at some stage

Pam21 · 28-11-2008 5:39pm

Zuroph if you dont mind me asking , how did you go about getting an invite , would love to check it out ???;)

zuroph · 28-11-2008 5:50pm

got invited for this weekend thru bebo, they added me. tis my birthday this weekend so we'll see what its like if i can get up there.

Aidric · 28-11-2008 7:43pm

Over 25's, guaranteed to be a couple of stuffy pr1cks on the door so.

zuroph · 28-11-2008 7:56pm

place will be so quiet they'll let most in im sure.

Berty · 28-11-2008 8:32pm

Maybe its the new Teds. They are the only types of customers who venture around that area.

My only memory of that place was when it was the restaurant. My colleague who was a bit thick said to the server after reading the crab starter "How are your crabs tonight?"

Smoking room was quite good when I was there though a bit of a trek from the ground floor.

Pam21 · 28-11-2008 10:24pm

Well best of luck to them, i for one think its a great concept hopefully they`ll do really well, some of the ppl on this board are so negative a new idea and before you see or try it you knock it at least its creating jobs in the city and providing people with an alternative ... ... there opening nxt week so the proof will be in the pudding....

It was already stated above that this is completely separate from the Bank, so give it a chance before you knock it.

And the quote about the rugby jocks is deadly!

Hey folks,

I had a nose in there friday night, Nice place, it wasnt packed bout 140/150 but still had a good atmosphere, the doormen and girl on the cashdesk were nice .Not a sign of a scumbag in the place so none of the teds crowd were in. It was just myself, the mrs and another couple, all about 26-32, so it was perfect for us they have a good dance floor and alot of leather sofas with cushions and the like.They had a big drink list and it wasnt that pricey had a good bit of top shelf stuff like hennessey xo but for a round with vodkas and coke , jd and a pint of coors it was i think 25 quid which is good.We`ll be back there anyway our kinda seen didnt see any of the afterdarker types. The manager came over and introduced herself and asked us what we thought and could they make any improvements which we thought was good at least it was personal.The only thing i wasnt gone on was the carpet coming up the stairs but after that it was nice and comfy and they put a good bit of effort into it anyway. thats my lot anyway

Millie · 01-12-2008 12:49pm

Deadly, might hop in there next Friday night.

Hmmm, a feed of pints of a Friday evening then stumble in the door at half 12 for some steak and onions: this could be the start of a beautiful friendship. Afraid I might have to say my goodbyes to Fast Eddie, The Chicken Hut, and The Restaurant Formerly Known as the Lobster Pot.

Was`nt the bank done lately for bad kitchens by the food hygene crowd?

LOL at the op letting on he's an interested punter. Pretty obvious marketing thread, but fair play, hope the club does well for you.

Not exactly great value, but not the worst I've heard of, that's assuming there were 3 cokes on that order and not 1.

Magicman1 · 15-12-2008 7:33am

So I went on Saturday night.....and i thought it was grand....not packed but I'd say it's because it's new.....the atmosphere was good and it wasn't overpriced...there's a menu that has cocktails and other expensive drinks on it but if you stay away from that menu you own't do too bad!

No sign of steaks on sale anywhere...and when I asked the dj for some skooter he gave a little giggle, not on offer there apparently but I was impressed with the music for the most part especially the marvin gaye, dusty springfield, stevie wonder set!

All in all. not too bad, a change from the norm, not a cattle mart and if you're up for a less than hectic night then its great.:rolleyes:
