Metrobar in Derby

Had good afternoon/evening in here. Music was great, good pint of Stella. Definitely go in again when we next visit Derby.

Love going here , love the music

Went there tonight and the manger, shouting at her staff,I didn't like what she said to her so I went and told her she was nasty cow , and she hit me . I'm now at police station for assault. It should be on CV TV .

Nice bar. Music a bit repetitive and loud. Could need a better JD. Bar staff friendly but slow. Not enough seats or tables for a bar.

Love the music, love the staff including Adam on the door 🤣 I have a great time every time I go to metro

Rough and ready , good fun at the end of the night though...😊

Went in here on St George's day. Always great patriotic music and videos to celebrate the day. Called in here for the last 5 years and Always a great experience on the 23rd 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Great pub. Good djs and music. Friendly staff

Like a time warp back to the 80s, brilliant

Great atmosphere, wide selection of music and beers

This bar wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea but if your after a cheap night out with music and dancing it could be for you. All ages and types of people in here, generally for those of us past our clubbing days but who want to go into town and enjoy the weekend atmosphere.

Amazing place, fantastic friendly staff, brilliant atmosphere on weekends, highly recommended popping in here for a drink !!!

A great fun and friendly atmosphere, however it needs to be fully cleaned and updated. Slightly run down.

Great atmosphere on a Saturday night

City Centre Bar with Fabulous Vibes and Music systems and Lighting with Pink Coconut Saturday Earlydoors Events

Best place in Derby brilliant music.the staff are friendly and caring

great atmosphere, friendly and funny staff always feel looked after and safe 🙌 x

Security was very over the top and handsy. Definitely they could have been more diplomatic. As much as I understand it can be hard for security to make sense of 2 separate/ conflicting versions of events I don't feel they really made any reasonable steps to find out what actually occured or ask politely for anyone to leave or step away from the situation. In my opinion it was just grab and kettle. Force first ask questions second and seeing as the main people involved were all women I can't help but feel they didn't do there job correctly. As a male bystander I wasn't at any point scared for me or anyone involved, this wasn't a dangerous group of men which could spill in to all out violence, it was a couple of middle aged women exchanging unpleasantries, there was no need for the reaction that occurred...

Great night, great music, shame about the 2pint pissheads that ruined it for other's 😞

Good bar staff.. bad security staff was asked to leave When my phone keys were taken. Bar staff on a power trip.assaulted me then called the police..ha joke of a place.

Staff are brilliant and LGBTQIA friendly. 😀

Great place, friendly staff always welcoming, great atmosphere

Good old classic 80s music. Great environment.

Its ok. Can't moan really. Serves drinks and has decent music on a Saturday

Can I please opologise for calling the doorman a w*****r. However he judged me for for being for having to much to drink before I even I spoke to him. Yes I had I had a few but door-staff like that you certainly do not need. I believe I was perfectly fine until he he came over aggressive. I only fought my corner. Door staff like that you don't need. reading some more reviews it appears that the security staff are power crazy.

Me and a friend was a victim of unprovoked assault last night. The bouncers did nothing about the situation. Not a safe place to be at - especially as a young adult

Avoid. It's a scrubbers' bar. Much more fun can be had at the City Bar, White Horse and Noah's Ark. The bouncers are violent

Brill music and lots of afternoon fun ,loved it

Love this venue especially as the play northern soul brilliant dancing

Always pop in for a beer when in derby on a night out

Brilliant place great atmosphere

Great music .Brilliant staff .Just a shame that people will manage to smash a whole pint on the dance floor soaking others in the process .The staff keep on top of it as much as possible .The toilets are ok at start of the night unfortunately as good as the people using them so drunk sick peeps dieing in a cubicle while People wait .You are less likely to see fights as the door staff don't stand for it .An older clientelle as over 25 means less giggling groups and stag or hen which suits me Sarah Smith

Will not be returning ever again... Door staff member on a power trip let you in just to refuse to serve you...

I’ve not been into town since 2012, and I must say. Coming to this bar and getting my drink spiked. That I definitely will not be attending this place again. I’m so disappointed that this kind of behaviour still goes on. And I wasn’t the only person to get my drink spiked that night from this place. Just be careful ladies.

Fantastic Atmosphere With Great Customer service & the Security are Amazing - They Make you Feel Welcome

Great bar with great offers and the staff are lovley

Quite grubby back street bar, overpriced drinks, which selection is not great. Overcrowded on weekends with to many louts looking for trouble. Ok place if you're into that kinda thing

Just a great place for a drink and dance ..with great friends

dont go here its the worst place to go bouncers attack you for no reason at all music is soooo bad and people that go are out for a fight

Easy going, pleasant staff and good music plus good match quality 👍

Spent last Saturday night 11th jan 2020 in this bar a great atmosphere and was pleasantly surprised with the drink pricing. Me and my partner has a great night Thanks guys.

The Metro bar is one of the last drinks of the night type of places. It's got an over 25s clientele that want a good night out and are by 12am usually drunk enough to be acting like kids. The music is too loud for the size of the venue and there isn't a lot in the way of seating. Having said this the atmosphere more than makes up for the places short comings and drinks are an average price when compared to other venues.

Not many kids get in here, good music, 60's, 70's loads of old soul and disco and long forgotten gems. Staff friendly and efficient.

Music is great friendly door staff really like to watch sport in this bar, my only issue would be some of the prices. They sell strongbow dark fruits in cans £3.95 for a can ?

Bit of a Star Wars bar but the music was good and there was free food put on on multiple visits. Beer wasn't too bad either

The last bastion of the desperate and lonely, good music and open late.

Amazing atmosphere and friendly staff

Music and videos great. Beer reasonable. Toilets need bringing into the 21st century.

Good tunes but dubious clientele. Sorry but true

Whatever you do, don't ever go in slightly slightly drunk. We had an over zealous security guard ask us to leave because we sat on a chair he thought was in the way. We argued and got thrown out. His colleague wasn't interested in us and agreed. Classic case of someone feeling more superior than he was. Have never been thrown out of anywhere before. Will not be going back ever!!! Even my hairdresser shuddered when we said we'd been there. says everything!!!

Fab all round thats why i i ienjoy the place xx

Cheap drinks but cheesey music and you can't request a song from the dj

We had a fantastic night here, great music and atmosphere

I will always love this place x

Brilliant night out.Saturdays packed to capacity with lovely friendly people from all walks of life,everyone enjoying the music and company they were in. Big thanks to Sophie for the confidence boost you gave me (that memory will stay with me for ever " I had the time of my life" !!!) you are a star xx !!!i A massive thanks to the DJ & the bar staff who work their socks off to make the nights so enjoyable. I will definitely call in when ever i'm in town .

It's a shame that such a great and fun place like Metrobar is only worth 2 stars... Great oldie music, reasonable and competitive prices as well as a nicely located venue. Only due to human factor I can suffice to give it 2 stars. Security personnel is rude and lacks empathy and understanding. If you happen to come by in a good mood or tipsy, make sure to play the entrance by the book. If you don't, your entry can surely be prohibited without any explanation or reasoning, even if you kindly ask for it.

Good nite out always go to the metro bar wen I go out

Very good different from others I've seen x

Nice drink in the day to watch abit of sport

Great atmosphere, cheap prices, brilliant music!

Great night great music but really need to fix the ever leaking toilets

Great music! Good drink prices and brilliant staff!

Great place to drink music is awesome only trouble is one of the male door staff has an attitude problem.

Great pint of John smiths most people you can laugh and joke with

Great atmosphere and great music.

Not a regular haunt of mine, but always a fun friendly atmosphere

This is a trendy place👍 and very lively bar😀

Great place up on a visit today staff very friendly security staff fantastic free curry and rice as well definitely go back

Lovely bar, has music, football, does free food after footie. Really good prices. All in all, Not to be missed!!!

one of the better places good music a good 30s + bar

Well staffed bar with security on the door to keep it a good drinking pub. Dancing also available for those who want it. Good mix of music is a bonus.

Great bar not for the faint hearted or the more conventional of persons but amazed by how cheap the drinks were and in general a really great bar with lively atmosphere, recommended and a bar I now frequent more often.

A bit different for a drinking house.

Love this bar. The music is great and the service and prices are excellent.

The least said about this place the better

Come from Stoke to visit this pub my favourite love the music and staff

A real dive. If you're looking for one of the slummiest places in Derby to drink this is the spot. If you do decide to brave the substandard drinks please use the toilet elsewhere as you'll probably end up catching some as yet undiscovered illness

Good music, reasonable prices, clean toilets

Usually trouble free place..good music average priced drinks & you get free crisps on the table too! Only down point would be the middle aged sgort haired blonde door lady probably should learn how to smile & be more inviting as a sour face isnt what revellers want.

Cheep cheerful retro music ,no frills , over 25s(strictly) good night .

I don't go in very often so I can not say much about it

Popular and loud bar with DJ playing hits across the decades. Noted more males than females. Not the place for a romantic evening. But if loud and raucous is your thing...... then enjoy.

Watched a Derby game in there recently and prices were good and free crisps on tables.

I have not been here in years! It was ok however the rest rooms being up two flights of stairs is off putting.

Good pub, very annoying DJ though, voicing political views all the time, not very professional

Just called in on a Friday night. Wasn't there long enough to make a proper judgement

Rough and ready town centre pub. Regular weekend and evening DJs and sport on TV. Don't go in expecting posh cocktails or facilities.

Fantastic place for the over 25's

Nice place. Various different music nights..

Great pub,brilliant bar staff and fantastic atmosphere

Great pub on a Saturday to watch the football

Needs improvement to make it better.

Working in Derby this week been in the metro a few times staff are sound good music and actually a nice well kept pint of grolsch cheers guys

The staff were super friendly, and I was made to feel welcome with my girlfriend and mate, when we showed up on Monday night just gone. The service was wonderful, drinks were reasonably priced and all the staff were smiling. I even felt welcomed to be a part of their conversation. I'm sure I'll definitely be returning around Fresher's period. - Sunil.

Fantastic music, great atmosphere, friendly staff and punters alike 💋

Packed to the doors and nasty aggressive drunken people.

From the door women to the bar staff they are all friendly....x

Great music,drinks prices are reasonable as well.

Great place. Good fun mid week karaoke and lovely people

Me and my husband eat here regularly, the food I'd highly recommend it to anyone
