Deuce Lounge Barking in Barking and Dagenham

Support black business, they always say. But our black business owners don’t give you reasons for you to support their businesses. It doesn’t take a lot to be nice to your customers, it feels nice to be nice especially when someone pay you to your establishment. Even though we over charge for something, the service doesn’t match the price. Y’all need to do better.

Heard so many good things about this lounge. Decided to give it a try with a few friends and we had the most fun night out. Very accommodating and attentive staff. Great drinks selection and the music was top tier the whole night. Home of the Afrobeats!!

Deuce Lounge, I won’t recommend it to friends and family. The music/vibe there is FULL on REPEATEDLY Ampiano and Nigerian cultural music. It gets frustrating as you require other types of music genres. I came with my sis and cousin and it was not our vibe, I highly doubt we will be back at the venue. Others may disagree with my review however I prefer an event that switches up the music with afrobeats, bashment, Soca, RnB etc. Eventually we started to get tired and annoyed with the constant Nigerian cultural music and Ampiano because at some point we found ourselves sitting down. Thank Goodness we didn’t pay £20 at the door! Would have been a waste of money to be honest.

Decent place if you're local and want to enjoy some afrobeats. The venue could do with some refurbishment though

They (Barking Town in general) should make this a nice cocktail bar and try and bring in the English crowd, hipsters ect

During my recent outing to Deuces Lounge for an event, my friend and I were taken aback by the behavior of the female security guard at the entrance. She was seriously rude, and we couldn't figure out why since we hadn't even done anything. The way she gave us dirty looks and made snide remarks to her colleague was just bizarre. It would be great if the lounge could hire staff who are more friendly and have better customer service skills. These kinds of encounters really stick with customers and can affect their overall experience.

My experience at Deuces Lounge was utterly disappointing due to the incredibly rude and passive-aggressive behavior of one staff member, particularly the black lady at the entrance. Her nastiness and unwarranted hostility made me feel incredibly uncomfortable throughout my visit. It's a shame that such unprofessionalism tainted what could have been an enjoyable night out. I strongly advise against visiting Deuces Lounge unless you're prepared to endure unnecessary rudeness and unpleasantness from the staff.

A member of security was nasty towards for no reason and fully proved negative black stereotypes! As a black woman myself, it was a shame to see another black woman be so horrible, rude and aggressive towards me for no reason whatsoever!!

Ideal Afrobeats clubhouse for Saturday night. Fun and secured.

My friends and I had so much fun at the Duece lounge on Saturday night, the tickets cost £10 but I think that’s because they were celebrating sth. If not it would have been £20. If you’re looking for Afrobeats club, this is the one!

Bouncers are okay and the bar attendant are friendly. That’s the only good point, the rest are far below standard. I bought a ticket at shoobs however the lady at the door claim they made a mistake advertising it as a general ticket, however it’s for ladies only and that we should pay extra money. When queried whose fault for making the error that I should be responsible , she rudely responded that if I don’t want to pay I should leave. This was a scam trapping people to buy tickets and when you get there they rob you. The lady is very rude and either she or the management that advice her to take money lack common sense and responsibility. My checks on other reviews shows a lot of people have complained about her but management still keeps her, meaning she has been placed there to disrespect customers. Music lack flow and there is no audience engagement. Quality of people and the club environment, ghettoish, you can get in as a male with an ordinary singlets. If it’s good time you want with quality people don’t go there. Try LA lounge

Really lovely experience, made my birthday really special. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Management made sure everything ran smoothly . Been there since for a night out good atmosphere and music.

Good vibes, but need improvement in music and conveniences..

Best place to be on the weekends... trust me.. Good music, good food 👌

Love the place. Great atmosphere 👌

I was in this club yesterday in very high heels, I didn't sit down for a second, Because the music was too good, thanks to the DJ.🫂👍🏼🫶🏽

An interesting place to work but cool vibes until everyone had to leave nobody wants to leave at closing time

Place is always lively. If you like afrobeats then this is the place for you. Can sometimes get really packed that you can’t even dance properly.

I think this must be one of the best Afrobeats Lounge in East London. I have yet to experience this vibe in any other club. The music was ridiculously on point. The drinks were a decent price and everyone was there to have a good time. This is the second time I and my girls have gone there, this time celebrating my best friends birthday and they did not disappoint. I would say arrive early as this place does get busy quickly.

I was apprehensive initially celebrating my 30th at this lounge but my best friend was adamant I would have a good time and she wasn’t wrong. Incredible vibe playing the latest afrobeats. The management was great, they let me bring my own cake and brought it out with sparklers. I definitely will be attending future events.

Definitely a fun lounge. I danced my heart out and it was exactly the kind of vibes I needed. If you want to find all the Africans around Barking on a night out, then The Deuce Lounge is your best bet because the Afro beats vibes is on point. The DJ kept going back and forth but later on, he gave back to back Afro jamz and I danced my sorrows away.

I had a lot of fun here for a friends birthday. No complaints

Great Dj! At times packed from 11pm others, it fills up at 1ish!,at times door staff are polite! Other times a bit abrupt yet a nice vibe inside yet entry fee is over priced! Drinks reasonable!, yet nooo prossecco 🤔

Ladies if you attend please ensure you’re careful. My friend was assaulted by two men there. Management did nothing to help and she has contacted the police. If you’re looking for a good time in the exact same location, go to Kings Bull. at least you won’t be assaulted by men there. We’re in 2022 and women are still being abused

First time visiting The Deuce Lounge over the weekend both Saturday and Sunday the DJ did amazing job nice music and nice vibes......However the female security and female door keep had a nasty attitude and don't know how to talk to people and the fact they try to justify the way they speak to people or handle customer was very unprofessional clearly some customer service training is needed.....its just a shame both time I visited I experience this on the first night was a Asian lady or Caucasian lady.....the second night was a big dark skin lady. The plead that the club owner look into this because that was not a nice way to start my girls night at all. It's one thing when a business have a lot of potential and its a next thing when the staff is not up to part.

I sometimes visit here with my partner and friends. Whilst waiting for a cab, I was verbally abused and called a white bitch by security because of a issue they have with another person. I’m disgusted and tbf I am never going to waist my money here or return again

Apart from people pushing in the queues when you've been waiting for quite a while this place is fun to be in. I've been twice and never regretted it

A Very Good Bar to chill in the heart of barking and very good price for food and drinks

Lovely place to be in. Definitely coming here often.

I really enjoy their food. I always get good service here. The place is well organised and the cashiers are always kind. Would recommend to others.

Great for Thursday nights out. A great afro beats vibe, highly recommended.

Scam! Went there yesterday and paid £20 entry into an empty place. Then then they tried to make us pay £500 for a table when the place was obviously empty due to the pandemic. Anyways we took our custom to LA lounge and had a good time. Keep the £80 entry fee

Don't like the fights, apart from that it's a nice place

Nice and cosy, perfect for a fun weekend night

Not nice hard to find shabby looking sticky floor

The music and food . It was a lovely night

Lovely atmosphere, the music is the best and the staff are very friendly. The best place to mingle, dine and wine xxx

Its alright... nice place to chill

Fighting a lot music keeps stopping and they don't have some of the drinks that are local

The DJ should talk less. The hygiene requires improvement

i do not know whether they have the same DJ all the time.. certainly not.. but the DJ that played when I was there sunday 26th August 2019 most of the night did not allow tracks to last. most of the tracks couks barely survive 2 mins befire another one was played.. reason for the 2 stars. Also too crowded.

Duce lounge is nice place to be

Very lovely place and very welcoming staff

Food is Nice great atmosphere. But too many chairs on the dancing area. The staff here are nightmare especially the black girl at the entrance, collecting entrance fee. She is very very Rude. And the thing is the management here don't really care about how their customers feel about their service.

great at nights, never money wasted

What a meal! Worth every penny spent

Not much going on here, some jazz music in the background, a handful of people at the bar, bit of a ghost town.

Nice place to relax. Friendly people and live band play on Friday night. Lovely dishes on the menu.

Good music alright food place is well decorated for events

Been to rubbish tips which are cleaner. Staff a rude save you money and don't go there

Had a pleasant experience with staff with a friendly and positive attitude. Would be nice to visit again and again, not bad at all. The environment is very welcoming and was able to navigate my way through happily.

Dissapointment of the highest order !!!

Worst club I have been to they the staff is rude the owners are disrespectful and try to disrespect and harass female patrons. It’s not a place with any class very dissapointed and will never go back. Made the mistake of eating some of their food and my belly was a mess for days. I question the cleanliness of their establishment. Save your time and health and don’t go.

Great night out. The revellers make an effort, ladies are looking on point; so are the men. Polite security, door staff and bar staff and DJ Sean and Co keeps you dancing all night with a super selection of afrobeats, bashment and hip hop.

I came here to support my friend who was performing, I would not come back it was so hot and their was no air conditioning everyone was sweating! #sweatbox

Good vibes mostly though couple of people had to be stopped from fighting

A nice place to be with your family

This place is frivolous and stupid. I will never go back there. First they got some low lives with no manners in the restaurant talking so damn loud like bunch of uncivilised fools. Second they hired a white polish girl as a customer service and server, in a place where there are plenty unemployed black people. Rather than employing a black person and train him or her adequately, they hired a white person. Have you ever seen a white server in Indian restaurant? They gave me a dry pounded yam with nasty sour taste egusi stew. I can make a much better egusi at home. Do not go to this frivolous restaurant and I surely will never go there again

Once you come to the DEUCE Lounge. You will keep coming over and over again. Drinks prices are just the best for a lovely lounge in the area. I love DEUCE Lounge. Best Thursday nite in town....

Been here on a couple of occasions for different events. Doesn't seem to be as popular as Kings Lounge across the road. Food is available (African) and service can sometimes be slow. Can be a little pricey given the area. £60 for a bottle of Rosè Bottega!

cozy place, decor on point, nice ambience, prompt service delivery. Tasty array of Nigerian /continental dishes. Highly recommended

Coolest place to be....in barking good atmosphere and gud music

Amazing place n lounge to chill n drink n dance...loving it all the time to come here...I would recommend should try out...thumbs up..!!!

Okayish for east London. Blows hot and cold. Some weekends its packed with a good crowd. Some weekends its as dead as a crime scene. Drinks are priced well.
