Great nightclub with 3 different DJs and type of music playing. Despite being 3 floors it can get pretty crowded the later it gets.

I went there to have a good time and enjoy the night. My night started off great, the bartenders were fantastic made my drinks quickly and well. I didn’t have any issues with the atmosphere or the other guests at the bar. Most of all the staff was fantastic answered my questions, as I was only visiting Yuma.There was however one bouncer who accosted me 2 times that evening saying I was blocking traffic, when there was no one near me or behind me. The second time he accosted me he actually laid his hands on me! I hand done nothing incorrectly! There where no signs posted anywhere in the club informing any kind of rules! I was dress for representing PRIDE I had makeup on and was complimented multiple times by staff and other guests!! But this one bouncer kept getting extremely irritate towards me! I asked him to explain himself! He stated he didn’t have to and that I had to leave the club! He pulled 3 other bouncer over and said that I was being aggressive. Then he kept touching me and grabbing my arms and trying to pull me towards the exit! I requested multiple times for him to stop touching me that I was willing leaving the bar! It was very upsetting that i was told by multiple residents of Yuma that this particularly bar was accepting to the LGBTQ community! They are as far as I am concerned! But this ONE Individual ruined the fantastic evening I was having! I would have loved to have left a better review but I can’t due to this one individual who had some kind of vendetta towards me! I was disappointed!

Ive only been a couple times. The last time there one bathroom security person kept two drink girls from being all sloppy and agress towards me for no reason trying to put beads around my neck. They called her Ma I know its a club, people get a little thirsty, but some cant handle themselves. But Ma had everyones safety in mind. She reminded them of where they were and everyone was there to have a good time if not they could leave. I heard that the new owner went through the staff eliminated the jobs or some I hope for their sake and all the other ladies around they keep her. I wont go back if I cant feel safe.

180 degree turnaround here. We dont know what changed but there is a big difference in the way we were treated by security and the atmosphere is much better now. No more thugs working. Instead of Kress being our last desperate resort to go dancing maybe it will become our first choice. I took the time to write the terrible review I previously had posted because of our terrible experiences. So its only right to correct it and we want to say thank you.

Been here a couple of times and almost all of those times have had a great time!!I believe her name is Leticia, sorry if I got that wrong but she is the tall security girl there honestly has been nothing but AMAZING to me and my group, when there we usually do reserve a table the server & manager that set that up are prompt and make sure your good. Hip Hop side is where its at the DJ plays good music.Only issue I have is when some of the people that somehow end up getting into your reserved section, personally if I know nobody in that section way try and wiggle your way in, if you want some personal space get a table but whenever that happens security is quick to let them know they gotta go.So if your in Yuma and wanna let loose stop by, there is no cover!! and show up early it gets packed quick.

Where can i start ? This was horrible.. the first time i ever stepped in this so called Night Club i was immediately removed because someone felt threatened by me who i didn’t even know, incident number #1 . 2nd time some security guard started getting in my face and put his hands on me and i was jumped by 5 or more security . 3rd they attempted to clean up racial attack and asked me to perform at the kress hip hop room, and he manager refused to pay me for what we had on contract once i pursued legal action he paid the amount and black listed me . All i hear from this place is bad management, horrible staff and watered down vodka. VIP is a joke, the real vip experience has been at clubs out of town like Zuma, C.A.S.A, Luxx, Monarch or El jefe to name a few . Flat out the Kress is a Joke and it’s a shame management or the owners have not addressed none of these issues ! This place is a horrible representation of what a Night Club in This town should be ! My true rating is a Negative 5 ... “ -5 “ Good Day

Club itself is good. But why does the bathroom lady try to start some fights. Came out of the bathroom, the bathroom lady is out there with some other ladies pointing at me asking if i’m Having a problem with her and the guests. I’m in my 30s i was there for the first time i don’t need some drama just because some ladies have issues . Not going again because of that.

First 5 minutes after being there a big fight broke loose and we almost got hurt. The rest of the evening was okay. Top floor has heaters and great hip hop music. Latin side seems to play the same music over and over again. Drinks are decent. By the end of the night, its over crowded and you just need to get outta there.

Zero stars if possible, used to like this place before the big bathroom ladies were there trying to control everyone and everything with a very rude way of demanding how you can use the damn restroom, it’s a social club you go there to have a good time, you don’t go in there to get screamed at by their bathroom lady for stupid reasons. Lost my business and i know you will be losing more people because of this securities/bathroom lady however you want to call her.

Two female bouncers asked me to leave. Ive never been kicked out of any place before. They said I looked intoxicated. I was dancing at the back, on my own, pretty tamely. I guess I dance that badly. With my social anxiety disorder it has taken me years to work up the courage to dance in public and yes, alcohol helps, but not if Im sloshed, which is why I dont get sloshed. I also dont get sloshed cuz I want to be safe as a single woman. This morning I had no hang-over, no headache, nothing. I wasnt drunk. Wasnt slurring my speech, wasnt losing my balance, was fully mentally present. I immediately complied, didnt ask any questions or argue. I asked if I could throw my full beer away and they told me I could chug my beer on the way down to the door (which seems like the opposite thing to tell a supposedly intoxicated single woman as you usher her out the door into the night alone to either walk it off or find a ride or drive, supposedly drunk). If I had gotten harmed outside the club it would have been on them. If a woman who is alone is acting drunk, bouncers should consider the possibility of her having been roofied, and not just usher the woman out the door, on her own, at night, to go figure it out herself while shes drunk. If I had gotten hurt it woulda been on them. Thankfully I didnt get hurt, despite those women, because I was pretty dang sober.It was an almost full bottle, one which the bartender apparently thought I was sober enuf to purchase. Im not really much of a drinker or a chugger, so I ended up throwing it away. My friends told me I should get a refund but I dont care about the money, I care that it was kind of humiliating being escorted by not one but two bouncers like Im dangerous or something, and being told I look drunk when Im not drunk. I got dressed nice for their club, dont really understand what they saw that gave them concern. And they did not explain anything.Also, a couple in the club bumped into me and when I apologized twice (they did not apologize), the woman told me um you need to excuse yourself and walked off angry even tho I had just taken all the blame for something they did.Ultimately a pretty embarrassing experience which I will not be repeating, as I will not be going back there again. Too many snobby rude judge-y hostile women who treated me like an unwanted presence.

I showed up around 10, on Friday no cover. Club started to jump off around midnight. Good music, fun times.

The Kress has to be one of the nicest establishment downtown, very cool with a great atmosphere, I like when they have the rooftop bar open because its such a unique feature. Is there a cover? sometimes, but if you really think about it the cover goes to paying the entertainment that keep us having a good time, so I think a small cover is always reasonable. I think its a great addition to the resurgence of downtown Yuma.

Negative Stars if I could!! . Security elbowed me in the face and I had a swollen lip. Was here for the first time with my girl and our husbands and my girl went to the bathroom and her husband waited outside for her and they kicked him out because he “tripped” or stumbled and kicked him out for that and then my husband ask why he was getting kicked out then they kicked my husband out and ELBLOWED me in the face. I confronted the dude and he said he HAD to punch me in the face and didn’t offer my first aid or anything . Then I confronted the woman who apparently was the manager and she offered me a free drink and I told her that I needed water or ice for my face because I just got punched and my face is swallon she didn’t apologize for anything just tried to cover it up. The lovely LOVELY brewery next door gave me ice and water and said they have heard awful things about the Kress and hear and see a lot of bad things and they were so nice to me. My husband then called the cops because they would give me the name of the guy that hit me. One cop was so understanding and said that they get this a lot theres nothing they can do unfortunately but they said that this happens a lot. I would not recommend this place ever my first experience was horrible and I’m never returning.

You stand in line for an hour trying to get in, service inside is terrible. Its the worst kind of bar, its the you only have one option for drinks tonight and we know it so were gonna treat you terrible. Ive been to large cities and never went through anything like this. Stay away at all costs!!!

Review №19

I DO NOT recommend this place. The managers are crooks and do not honor written contracts they have with their entertainers, paying only half of what was written in the contract. They are bullies and I would NEVER support a business with such dishonest people. They use their bouncers for intimidation for their own selfish purposes. Besides this, the food is really poorly prepared and the service isnt impressive.

Rooftop nightclub. Youll struggle to find anywhere else like this in Yuma so youve gotta go if you want drinks and dancing. Gets busy so watch out for big queues.

Review №21

So many negative reviews about this club but yet yall talk alotta smack when youre drunk. You complain about the bouncers and how they strip search but yet theres cameras everywhere to see what goes down. If it wasnt for the big female bouncers to keep you in check then you would be bitching about how crappy Yumas only club would be. Be sober and tell the truth.

Jan is a horrible employee, in the 15 minutes in line she1: Singled 5 people out to pay the “ cover charge” that the rest of the 45 people didn’t pay.2: Didn’t let a sober person in because the woman asked what time it was3: She was very rude and unprofessionalThe employee alone made the night unenjoyable.

Loved it! Lots of space, a DJ! and a band playing in the other room! While others get to enjoy the roof top area to lounge and kick back and soak in the fresh air. Its an awesome place and I highly recommend others to attend. Especially on Saturday nights with DJ Dort Vader and Jonny Awesum!

Review №33

Horrible... They only get business by default. The bouncers are basically strip searching the girls at the door. After you have to separate with your date at the door. Once you get stripped searched and have to wait for your date they tell you to go inside even though your waiting for your date. Not that serious so I left...
