    This venue ticks all the boxes
    There’s nights out, and then there’s NIGHTS OUT!! We went to Maggie Maes for my stag night, visiting on Club Tropicana night. First impressions - quite a small venue, maybe we’d over-estimated the potential. We couldn’t have been more wrong… The atmosphere was electric, the staff were amazing, the DJ engaged with the crowd through the evening. Would I go again? Absolutely!

    Quality night out and amazing during the day!
    Amazing people, delicious drinks and the atmosphere is top tier. I cannot express how great the staff are from the bouncers on the door to the lads and ladesses behind the bar. If you are in Brighton and would like to listen to both throwback and new tunes, I would highly recommend going there. Love them all ❤️

    Abba fun
    Our first time to venue and have to say time it didn’t fail to impress. We had a warm welcome from the front desk and the atmosphere and ambience was friendly and fun. Bar staff friendly and there was plenty of seating to use. The people who attended were also very friendly and made the evening more enjoyable. Abba were great !

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
