Barbes

Live music venue

😠 $10 for an extra shot in a vodka red bull ($15), just paid $75 for three drinks. And cannot even taste the alcohol in them. Should’ve got cocktails instead which already have two shots in them. No warning from the Asian guy who served us, $25 a drink! First time at Barbes but so disappointed. Unfrie... People often mention venue, staff, music,

    The event organisers partner kissed me and kicked me out even though I didn’t know what I did wrong at that time. Really dissapointed in how me and my friends were treated especially how aggressively. I had to go to hospital because of my injuries.

    Nice venue, club seems to specialise in house/techno but best to check what events are on. Cool setup inside, nice outside area. Passouts available also. Drinks fairly pricey and entry also expensive, only reason for 4 stars.

    I was at this club at 2:30am (21st of May, 2023) for an event that was due to end at 3:30am. I was with two of my mates too. My mate was having a convo with this chic about the charge. The duty manager was so rude after he asked a simple question. She ordered the security to kick us out of the place. That was so rude and unprofessional of her. Whoever she is, I don't think she deserves a job there if the reputation of that club matters one bit.We tried to explain to the security but they said it was beyond them. I star is even too much!

    Great venue with great music, however cover charge is high, overpriced drinks, security are very edgy and lines long (2hs+).

    A Disastrous Experience: The Worst of the Worst. Where do I even begin? My recent encounter with Dime (Barbes) was short of a complete disaster. It was a relentless display of incompetence and disappointment. Is it the racism, extreme rudeness. I sincerely hope that no one else has to endure such a horrendous experience. First and foremost, the Night Manager/ Ticketer on Saturday night of the 21/05/2025 was very rude with no regard to customers. Her display of customer service was abysmal. Customer was asking a question about their close time and fees. The ticketer/manager was very rude in her replies. Replied “if we can’t pay that we should all get out”. At first we taught she was joking as she sat unperturbed. She instructed the security to whisk us away “ Get this 3 out of here”. First she seemed to possess zero knowledge about the closing time. It felt like talking to a brick wall, except that a brick wall might have actually been more helpful and knowledgeable. It's astonishing how a club can employ such inept individuals.

    Be careful if you choose to go out here. My partner was dragged out by multiple bouncers, pushed to the ground, choked from behind and kneed in the face. Left him with two black eyes, broken glasses and cuts on his hands and knees. All apparently because "he skipped a line" out to the smoking area. No speaking to the staff in this venue apparently, they immediately turn to violence. No appropriate responses if you try to deal with them in private either. Take care and look out for your people

    What an amazing new music venue Boorloo/Perth so desperately needed! So great to bring some culture to the dull city centre. Great diverse line ups, inclusive staff who seem to care about patrons safety! Thanks for many superb nights out-and to many more!

    worst club in perth don’t go there ! horrible staff i've never seen anything like it in my life! message to owners, select your staff better, especially the stupid french manager

  • 1/5 MotoClip 3. 9 months ago on Google
    DON’T go there. The manager is a hypocrite who encourages the atmosphere only to kick out people in the end. Drinks are expensive and poorly served, staff are terrible.

    Lack of toilet facilities after midnight as they only allow 20 ppl in the rear courtyard where female toilets are situated so half the night girls were forced to use the male toilet also as the courtyard had smokers in it and staff wouldn't let us outside the door due to a line of ppl wanting to go out for a smoke good venue otherwise but will not attend this place again

    Was in line for over an Hour and instead of letting everyone know that they were at full capacity they let everyone stand in the dang rain and didnt say anything. Probably never go back again
