Awful pub.
|
Had a good night here on Saturday. Friendly staff and customers, music and drinks were fine. This was our first visit to Fleet, but would definitely return to The Emporium.
|
Has recently been decorated. Went for lunch the other day, good food, reasonably priced and friendly staff. Would certainly give it a go if you havent been for a while, A Plesant place to go now, not how it used to be.
|
Greene King top brass hadn't sorted it by Christmas 2007, still a hell-hole with filthy beer. I think the bouncers are there to stop people leaving.
|
This place has really become quite awful in the past year. Every pint I've ever had in the place has been off. Music far too loud. Too many bouncers - and they clamp you if you dare to use their car park. Avoid this abortion of a pub, then hopefully Greene King top brass will step in and sort it out.
|
Still a nice pub, but has lost its atmosphere. Used to be very good on a Saturday with R&B night. The music now is pretty crap, some drinks are a bit pricey. A good place to stop for a early drink..
|
Has the feel of a place which can get indeed very lively, with live music on quite a lot. Very much a bar but at least you can get abbot ale here
|
Reasonable. More expensive that some of the other pubs in the area with a less friendly atmosphere than them too. Seems a favourite haunt for teenagers and consequently the testostorone levels go through the roof at the weekend after a few pints.

Another Fleet pub that has a sad demise due to the rather nasty little sods that seem intent on causing a fight rather than having a laugh.
The set-up of the pub means that it gets packed in certain places and gives that awkward squeeze through situation which tends to lead to annoyance of others.
However, lunchtimes and weeknights are great. Music is good and food is nice, and due to overall size can cater for a lot of people and has a nice feel.
Need to eject that hooligan element before people will go back.

This is most definetly the best pub/club in Fleet, Saturday nights are best whenever Dj Mr Jay is playing, thursday and fridays are not so busy and the music not as good as Saturdays. AND NO THE WOMEN ARE NOT TARTS!!.

Nice place - but they seem to change the DJ's alot - where's those two guys that played the RnB on Thursdays??? Bring them back, I thought their music was excellent, I had a really good night in this place when I got my result through

The Emporium is the best club in Fleet for entertainment, Saturday nights are excellent, old school r&b mixed with the lastest. Dj Mr Jay is on a different level..

I went to the Emporium on a saturday night, the pub is excellent. Dj Mr J (Images of London), plays the best R&B selection. Quality night

Recently refurbished- it's now become rather too fussy & modern for my taste, what with all the flat screen monitors, light beech effect panneling & red carnations on the tables. It's also just gained a large non smoking section. Has done nothing to quash its nickname of The Old Extortionate. Nice beer garden though. Opposite Jaxx if that's your thing. Regular DJ. Have permission for a late licence from the council, but don't know if they've implemented it yet. Really not a bad pub, just not really to my taste! It's a Greene King, so good IPA. Good Guinness. Don't make the mistake of ordering a double vodka red bull if you need a pick me up. It'll set you back almost seven quid.

The emp has been given a brand new facelift, and has become a very popular hotspot!, Dj Greg on Thurs and Fri nights plays some fantastic music!. All good!

Nice place by day, trashy at night. Great for lunch and afternoon drinks. Pleasent beer garden at rear, competatively priced food. Evenings the place is rough and trashy. Toilets usualy in bad repair

Good pub, good music, very busy Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights and stumbling distance to Jaxx nightclub (was cube/warehouse etc) Service sometimes a little poor due to the shape of the bar and lack of staff serving!

The Emporium is a great place to end up on any night of the week.
It has a real good vibe on Thurs, Fri and Sat nights as there's a DJ on these nights

Great Atmosphere. Great music at the weekends. Crewling distance to The Cube nightclub.
