Amazing place... amazing staff... amazing service....

Went for the RaptureMN event, and the crowd was good, the vibe was on point, the dancers and outfits were on point, the music and sound at a great level, and bar prices reasonable. Will comr back for more events in 2020!

Have been here several times in the past and had a great time. Very accepting crowd. Went there for st paddys weekend and at bar close the lights immediately turned on and me and my friend were accosted by bar staff yelling get the **** out. As we were trying to finish our drinks we were approached by staff who then gave us a five second countdown and threatened to snatch the drinks out of our hand. As we were leaving through the door we were then followed, aggressively by bar staff. Sad to see how they treat non regulars.

Was there a couple of times years ago. Very interesting vibe, nice people. Dont be scared to go.

Love this place where have you been all my life ground zero?

I write this with full knowledge that some people will look at me differently But until youve had hot wax poured on you, you havent lived life! SW= Strawberry pancakes!

Amazing atmosphere. Staff is sooo awesome. If youre a first timer or and experienced pro, it doesnt matter. Acceptance is key in this environment. Everyone is just here for a good time. AMAZING.

This is an awesome place to go if you are into alternative culture. They play a lot of industrial type music. So thats great. Drinks are really cheaply made, but the prices reflect that. I was surprised at the amount of people that look like tourists. So just a warning if you want to come and not get weird looks. Wear black. Its a goth horror nightclub, it is overall very excepting and a really awesome place to go.

Goth to the max and the show was a great bonding experience. Also gotta give props to the bouncers for being totally cool.

Go to for dancing. Best show in town.

The concept and atmosphere is great, but the bar is cash only and the drinks arent very good which makes it hard to rate. As a fun, seedy, and divey place to spend a night its a solid 4 stars (fun, but not exactly a VIP experience), but as a bar its objectively bad, hence the 3.

Home away from home. Last standing goth club in MN.

This is a really fun nightclub. My girlfriends and I have been here multiple times and we always have a blast!!!

A wonderful place to go on saturday night for some quality entertainment!Pros:- Good stompy music- Great place to get away from T Ann Finn- Lovely decorations- Drink a Vampire. No really, do it. Its delicious, AND Ironic.Cons:- Sometimes the occupants spontaneously erupt into a swarm of bats which is like, an adorable event to see but also they might accidentally flap too close to your ear which is kinda disconcerting but hey, goths be goths.

I had a blast the first time I came here! The bondage show was something I will never forget, I didn’t know that there were lot of different rules about getting up too often if you sit in the front and which way to get to the bar during a show so I got yelled at a lot by the workers. I wish there was a note or something pinned in her Facebook page about the curtsies/rules since I had never been there before (or seen a bondage show) and felt really bad about potentially being very disrespectful. Otherwise the music was great and I really enjoyed myself! I would recommend it to my friends, just be sure to read up on the rules and they have a cash only bar.

Best place to spend a Saturday night! Especially if you love dancing!

One of those places you dont mean to go to but find your way there and experience the strangest, most insane awesomeness ever. NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART. Or most strong hearts as well

Interesting place but if the bartender violently throws your change at you like he did me i dont think he should expect a tip just some advice lost young man

Best place! Loud music that doesnt all sound the same, great people! Only downside is cash only and not the greatest tasting drinks

Great time Everytime.

DJ constantly increased music volume to painfully loud levels. From what I understand, this particular DJ was known for playing to loud despite warnings from club staff. Good atmosphere otherwise. Two-for-one drink specials sometimes.

Awesome scene, the only place I go.

The BDSM show is basically an older unattractive domme awkwardly trying things with unattractive men and women. I understand this is the Midwest but youll find much better shows at the Gay90s for kinky Fridays.

I love this place and its exotic themes. I just wish more people knew about it. You need to go there on a Thursday or Saturday night to appreciate it because there isnt much on the internet the clue you in.

Thursdays are a great night to come. The stage show is varied and wild. Kink, arial silks, good music and even some fire on stage.

Our only good service was from the coat check guy.. the new decor is overdone and tacky.. the propylene glycol spewing fog machines were used excessively, during my recent visit and it caused me to leave early- on account of throat irritation. For a venue that hosts actual bands, they need a DJ on non-band nights who can flow music effectively. This place has a beautiful wood bar that needs refinishing and better lighting; making it into a permanent Halloween themed dive joint is not going to attract respectable patrons.

Gothic decor, friendly staff. Drink prices a bit high. I like that no matter who you are or what you look like you will be accepted.

Best EBM experience in the cities

Really great atmosphere and nice drinks. The events are great and the crowd is welcoming and cool

Would have been nice if they said they were going to be closes on their fb page

Been going for over 20 years n its alwAys a place to go to have fun.

Friendly and respectful people, mostly students, convenient despite u need cash . great place! I will go back many many more times..

Goth/industrial club. This isnt the place to go if you want to grind on the dance floor to hip hop or top 40s music. They dont have tap beer. But if youre looking for something dark and stompy this is the place to go. Cash only. 21+.

Youre bound to have a good time on a Thursday or Saturday night!

Great service, despite being a little small. The remodel was beautifully done and the atmosphere is awesome.

Bondage show is fun but the goth atmosphere is not my scene. But I was there with friends and that made it fun!

Low key and really fun place to go out in the cities.

Last saturday me and my husbacd came here for the first time we loved it . Great music had a really good vibe.

Very Different is the best way to descirbe it. I highly recommend you go atleast once in your life. It is CASH ONLY!

Unique atmosphere, different music than played in any other club in the area.

Interesting sociable place. Good shows. Good drinks

Cover charge was advertised $5 and they charged $20, regardless of their advertisement. Music was eh..all sounded the same. Dress code is not casual, you have to conform to goth culture or youll get stared at. (Mind you it is Halloween weekend and we dressed up for it)... Not impressed

Didnt know that they just changed the policy to 21 and up only. This was the only good place for people who are under the drinking age to hang out and meet great people.

Very fun if you like the dark rock music genre (e.g., Nine Inch Nails).

Been attending Saturday nights Bondage A-Go-Go for a month now, its a comfortable scene. But more importantly, if youve got a slightly kinky bone in your body, its worth a trip to Ground Zero on Saturday nights.It can be a little isolating to realize you like being tied up and hit in Minnesota. We dont have much thats out in the open around here. Sure, you can find munches to go chat with other kinky people in plain clothes on FetLife. But Ground Zero gives you the opportunity to go watch some kinky fun with no commitment what-so-ever. For a small cover price, you can see people engaging in your wildest fantasies and see for yourself that there are other kinksters here in Minnesota.Other relevant points:- Cover is only $6 if youre 21+, drinks are okay priced (5.75 for a Jameson).- The kinky show goes from 11pm until 2am, then lights go on and they usher you out fast.- Theres usually regulars hanging out at the bar to chat with friends, but theres always an empty table in the middle if youd like to come watch the show. No one bats an eye at the couple or solo person just there to watch, regardless of what youre wearing.- Contrary to the bathroom complaints Ive seen below, the mens room is usually bright and clean.- They seem to alternate between a few regular Mistresses, whom usually have pre-arranged subs, and also allow anyone to sign up and play (with tip).Seriously though - what else are you going to do on a Saturday night thats better than watching nearly-naked people get teased and beaten by attractive, talented women?

Great atmosphere with multiple themed parties every month a drink specials on a weekly basis

The patrons were very receptive to The Minnesota Krampus Verein last night!

Its been an awesome stomping ground for years.

The worst dj in mpls plays crap music that doesnt blend woth the last song played. They have one large speaker that has way way to much treble. Small dance floor. The drinks they make are not strong they short ya on the shots if you dont order the shots alone. Wont ever be back here

This is about as good as it gets for BDSM in the cities. Its Minnesota.

Tell Mistress Mara and Madame Bee hi; a fun excursion to the wilder side and good prices on drinks

Very poor service. Bathrooms gross. Great vibe.

Decent drink prices and an open-minded crowd.

Great place to go on Friday nights, small crowds and great drink prices, nice dance atmosphere where you can just be yourself.

Hella weird buy definitely an experience to remember lol

Saturday night fun! Bring your dancing shoes!

Great place, fun music and friendlier than most bars by far.

Went there for a geek show with some friends and decided to stay after the show ended. I couldnt figure out why after the show ended the place emptied out on a Saturday night...until we tried to enjoy ourselves.When we tried to dance some guy came running up to us and told us no drinks on the dance floor. Ok, fine. We can see how if there were a lot of people dancing the place would get messy.When we tried to get pictures of our group together the same guy came running up and yelled at us to delete the pictures. There is a section in the back of the bar that does have signs up saying no pictures but we didnt take picture there. He didnt care. He proceeded to make us show him all our pictures and delete any from the bar. That is ridiculousThe bathrooms were also disgusting and you better hope that your friend doesnt have to pee as badly as you because you need someone to hold the door shut for you.Also, bartenders intentionally jack up drink prices and make them very weak. When we started the evening our drink was $5. A few hours later a new bartender showed up and was obviously new. She looked up the price for our drinks and asked for $4. She also made them a hell of a lot stronger.

First off, cash only for cover and drinks. The bar didnt have very many alcohols to choose from. For a bar with some awkward bondage, I expected them to have some Kinky.

Great place, people are friendly, drinks are good, show was interesting.

Great music

Used to be a cool place, but it need to be revamped

Pricey.

Fun place!

Favorite spot

Trendy, but lame.

In here its halloween all year.

Packed after 11.

Dont remember anything.

Took in a bondage show here during the Vampire Ball. The place draws an awesome crowd of people that like to dress up, but the beer selection was terrible.

Not cool.

Oh my gawth

Excellent

Great for bondage night

Great unusual place

High drink prices and extremely weak drinks.

Not breathing but still is fun

Awesome place.
