I grew up in BTR and started coming here while still on active duty...quickly found the staff/ owners are not the friendliest and that hasn't changed over the years..every couple of years I come back to visit and hope it's gotten better but it hasn't..the bad times here out weigh the good by far .it's kinda the only dance club now so you're forced to it but it's not worth the aggravation.
Fun times. Been going there since 2014 and it just keeps getting better!
I was very disappointed with the accessibility of splash. I was thankful I got in with some boards the security guard put down but it still wasn’t safe. People in wheelchairs go to bars too. I couldn’t even get on the platform because again no ramp and it was a huge step. The only place I could see the stage was by the stairs and people kept standing in front of me and using my wheelchair to help themselves up which led to someone smashing my arm. Me and my friends drove an hour away for the drag competition my friend was apart of. I expected so much more from this community and was greatly disappointed at the way I was treated and the accessibility issues I faced. Please do better.
Bruh then Djs need to be fired cause they keep playing white people music but it’s black people time
had the best weekend…. 2 days in a row! if you are visiting please go!
Splash has been a second home to my friends & I! The employees are welcoming & the music is always one point! The drag shows are my personal favorite! If you’re looking for a FUN dance night out this is the place!! 10/10 recommend.
Came out with friends on a whim and had the best night of my life, honestly was a bit scared to go to a gay bar for the first time but , I have never felt so safe to just let myself go and fully dance without worry or judgement, just to dance and be happy and feel safe, everyone was beautiful and kind and lovely. I use to bartend and I also want to say the man that made my drinks did an amazing job, they were balanced but strong. If your scared to go, just go, like please just go and try it you'll have a blast.
Fun dance club with an active crowd and good manager. Cheap drinks but does charge a cover, even if you are over 21. Only suggestion would be letting people over 21 in through a separate line- if you have to pay a cover at least let people buying drinks have priority.
I was groped and followed around the club, when I told the owner and security guard they said “it’s your word vs his”.I was groped while on the dance floor with some friends by some middle aged guy who looked like he was on drugs. I told him to get away. Then he stayed next to me the whole time. Every time I moved he followed me. When I moved to the opposite side of the club, he followed me and was standing still staring at me. I told him to leave me alone. He wouldn’t so I told security. Security came back and said the person that groped me was gay. And said “it’s your word against his and we can’t kick people out because you said he did something”. I told them how uncomfortable I was and how messed up it was that I was groped and followed and they didn’t do anything because the guy said he was gay. I talked to the owner and he reassured me that he wanted everyone to be safe and have fun and that it was not okay. He said he will take care of it. I was upset and stepped outside for 10 minutes. Came back in and the guy who groped me was standing at the bar in the front. I was upset that he did nothing after claiming it wasn’t okay and he would take care of it. I asked the owner what the issue was and he said “it’s your word against his” i said why would I make this up about someone I don’t even know? The owner then went on a five minute rant, pointing his finger in my face, touching my friends and screaming at me. He screamed at me for about a minute about how much money he had lost during Covid. I got my phone out to record it bc of how aggressive and rude he was being towards me. Unfortunately I can’t post videos. But he told me to go to Reggie’s and see how I’m treated there. Then said “there’s the door go” but claimed he wasn’t kicking me out. Then he asked security to escort us out. So he couldn’t kick out 1 person for groping me. But kicked out me and my 9 friends. Splash is supposed to be a LGBTQ+ friendly place, but they let someone grope me and did nothing because he said he was gay. Was so humiliating and scary. Worst experience I have had at any bar.
Place smells like BO and there is no air conditioning. Bar tenders and dj are banging though
