    Be really careful and don't go to this place. The waitress, in front of the manager, was acting really sneaky and wouldn't show me the amount she was billing me. I told her I wouldn't pay unless she showed me the amount, and I removed my card from the terminal. She put in 1300, which was very high for a Jack and Coke, but I wasn't going to argue over a few rubles. I punched in my pin and she said the transaction failed. She redid it and I punched in my pin and it failed again. Turns out, the crooks there had erased the 1300 and entered 28,200 rubles. Luckily I have a verification feature that I have to enter a pin on my phone if it goes higher than 10,000 rubles. I looked at my phone message and told her and her manager they were theives. The guy next to me for billed 5,000 rubles for a drink, but he wasn't so lucky. He found out after his transaction went through. I told them I wasn't giving them the opportunity to Rip me off again and walked out. They sent the bouncer out to threaten me with an ass kicking... attached is the photo. He insisted I pay my tab. I dialed the police and the bounced flipped me the bird and walked back inside. These people are criminals, don't go there! Fun fact: I was being interviewed for a TV program the next day and we included the incident, standing in front of the club, with a detailed account of what happened.

    ***WARNING*** Tourists be careful of this place! My friends met these two girls while at a bar near Nevsky. They suggested we go dancing so we all went to this club that's open all night. When we arrived there was that same bouncer in the picture and only one other table of people there. They told us we couldn't smoke but these people were smoking which was odd. When the server came to get our drinks she didn't want to give us menus and it started to get weird. When she went to walk away, one of the girls stopped her and tried to order two glasses of Cristal champagne, knowing we were paying. Shortly after the guy at the other table started throwing glasses on the ground to intimidate us. He had a harem of women drunkly dancing and hanging on him. We felt trapped so we paid for our shots and left the girls behind. The bouncer tried to stop us but didn't realize who we were until our car pulled up and immediately backed off. Others might not be so lucky though.

    Scam scam scam Same as the other reviews, it's a bar that lives of scams. Here's the full story: Two girls were standing the entrance of Tonyc bar smoking. We asked if the bar was nice and the said yes, so we went in. They followed is and asked if we wanted to sit together to which we said yes. We had a couple of drinks and they offered to pay. One of them said she was a bomb engineer and even showed us her notebook full of math exercises. The other said she was a musician. The they took us to two other bars, and in the first one they got us two vouchers for free drinks on the street. After the second bar they l talk to friend in the phone that says that whatever club you want to go is closed and so they take us to Crystal club. There we immediately start being served drinks and food and tell us they will show us the menu later on. But never really showing it. As soon as you enter, they ask you to leave your jacket in a sketchy room, and the door is automatically lock electrically after you go in, so that they effectively keep you locked until they get whatever money they want from you. As usual, the amount charged is ridiculous. They use several payment terminals to charge your card the max possible. We called the police several times and they always say we have to wait, and they never show up. After you are robbed, and leave the place, the girls will come back in the morning to collect their pay. The girl in the picture is one of the scammers

    No, no and no! This place looks nice but it's a scam you can't even imagine. We went there with two charming girls met on Tinder. First they proposed us a good restaurant not far, which was really nice and well rated (I always look at the stars), and afterwards in a very natural manner (you should've seen their acting performance 😊) they proposed us to go in a nice bar where they were yesterday. And here the show begins: a first shot payed by the house (and I think that they put smth in the drinks), very expensive shots, changed and double billed shisha, 4-5 times billed karaoke songs, extra drinks which haven't even been taken which are billed, etc. etc. It's a real case for the St Petersburg police this place. Take care of you and do not go there, find yourself some good restaurants and bars, there are plenty of them in this beautiful city ;)

    I agree with the other comments. Don't go to this club! They took a lot of money from my credit card too. I think they look especially for young foreign guys who want to have a good time in SPb. It's a shame that this club exists!

    horrible scam !!! Never go this place. I contact tinder app girl. she wants to meet me within 20 minutes. And she said to me she also first visit this place. but she already knew wifi password and every corner. I just drink 3 shots and reluctantly sing a song because she wants and pushes me to grab the microphone. She order water smoke and so many shots continually. So I said plz slowly. We just met and need to talk. But she wants to drink and order shots again. They charge me 200$. I said I am a student, it is so big. so 150$ charged. She has to pay, so she wait for her friend in this bar. I said I don't want to leave her alone. She said her friend paid 50$. She wants to go. So we go together in cloak room near the gate. She said she wants to wait for her friend. She left the club. I think she deceives male friend by tinder app and overcharge him or them. I also don't know this club in Saint Petersburg. But now I know it. Don't waste your time and money. They are professional.

    Horrible place. It's a scam. I didn't lose any money here but I know these kinds of places. Was at Fidel bar when an attractive girl started talking to me. She said she was from Irkutsk and staying with her sister in petersburg for a few days. She said she sang karaoke, I said ok lets go to karaoke the next bar down. She said she had never seen the Church on spilled blood and that she wanted to see that first and then go to karaoke. So we went to see the church and walking back she said wait, a friend of her's will meet us at Dom 8, which is Crystal Club. I know this place, it used to be a strip club, I said I'm not going in. She said it's not a strip club anymore. Ok, so we went in. Strange that in order to get in or get out of the place the door is locked and they have to unlock it from the inside. My guess is to trap people to extract all their money before letting them out. Inside there was nobody there, I repeat nobody except the workers. Again strange... We sat down, a waitress came up and asked what we would like. I said bring the menu first. Looking at the menu the prices for beer and cocktails were 2 to 3 times the normal rates at bars. I told the girl that brought me here, her name Elina (so watch out for this one) that the prices were ridiculous and I'd rather go to the karaoke bar Banka which I go to often and there is more people, more energy, and prices much better. She looked upset, which was strange, and said ok lets go smoke outside. I said I am not leaving my jacket to smoke and then come back, that in fact I am planning on leaving. So now we are outside once again. The vibe with Elina started to feel sour. I told her I do not like to waste money and did not like the place, again there was no one there, which is a bad sign. So we walked. As we were passing Nevsky metro she said she needs to give a bank card to her friend and for me to wait for 3 minutes. She entered the metro, and did not come back. I already knew what was going on, so I walked back home. I have been screwed over by places like this before, so now I know much better. If you are at a bar and you are talking to an attractive girl who seems too easy to talk to, and if she suggests a place to go to somewhere else, avoid it like the plague. This girl was clever enough to say she wanted to see the church, and then as if a coincidence we are walking past this club that her friend will meet us there. That is a first for me, but I am even more in tune now. Also its true about the drinks they serve in these places. They add some additive that makes you drunk and black out. I am so grateful that I managed to get out of this place without paying a dime and keeping my brain in a normal mental state.

    Would rate it zero if I could. Stay away from this place. Total scam, as said before. 5.5K rubli (80€) for a plate of fruit. Luckily I was clever enough not to get fully scammed.

    SCAM. This place doesnt show you the menu and charges insane amounts multiple times from the same credit card. If you go with girls, they are paid by the bar to lure you in there and order drinks.
