DQ The Late Bar

A well rounded venue situated down Fitzwilliam St. It’s just far away enough from West St to be removed from the tacky glare but central enough to easily stumble to in the wee hours of the morning.
The venue is split into two separate (sometimes combined) spaces. The smaller ‘upstairs’ DQ probably holds about 200 people and is equipped with a DJ booth and stage area to accommadate live bands. Local promoters make good use of the space and you can often find good spirited nights here offering indie music, electro, drum and bass or some such other electronic beats.
Downstairs is larger and holds around 400 people. In the most basic sense DQ really is just a large room, interspersed with occasional leather clad pillars and sofas, however the bar service is rapid and the prices inoffensive, making DQ a good option for drinking late into the morning.
The downstairs venue has a variety of nights passing through it, including highly fashionable electro nights, 3D old skool raves, and more casual drinking based affairs. On the whole the DQ crowd varies depending on the music being played but it is usually young and up for a laugh.
Beware the overly aggressive and somewhat unprofessional bouncers.

Good venue offering live music and club nights. Standard prices aren’t that good but they do have offers on which more than make up for it. Worth giving Razor Stiletto and Threads a go.
