Venuestar Review A Bar Called Barry provides a funky venue in which to boogie the night away. A hallway-type structure leads patrons to the main dance area at the back, which is where the fun begins. The venue plays a variety of top 40 tracks with a good sprinkling of retro and alternative. When the DJ's choice is popular, the split-level dance floor engulfs some of the seating area.
DJs work their magic on weekends, with a good range of danceable retro and rock music.
An upstairs room complete with bar lets those who are all danced-out take a break from the action. Julie Whiting Second Opinion An insanely alternative venue, A Bar Called Barry is extremely popular, and often busy. Once the Last Laugh Comedy club it now has a Camden, London, feel for those that have been there. If you're even slightly alternative and want to have a dance around the Fitzroy area, head here, and don't be put off by any queues out the front: they're there for a reason. Simon Woodhouse Readers' Reviews From an 18y/o perspective. A fun, laid back, care free place where you can unwind and actually enjoy yourself. If you need a break from the House/ Techno clubs (and their crowd), this is place! Generally an older type of crowd, which is a bit off-putting at first, but once the DJ starts spinning the tunes of your High School (even primary school days), it simply doesn't matter! A great place to meet with up friends who want nothing more than to escape the 'norm' for just one night (maybe more). Sarah, Preston, 08/08

Readers' Reviews Barry is a wonderful bar, the drinks, the tunes, the cruizy Atmosphere! Always chock full of cool people and everyone is so easy going. The DJ is a genius! His crazy choice of music keeps a smile on my face all night. If you have a morbid phobia of queues - like myself, definitely organise a guest list. They're only too happy to do it for you, you can line up on the member's side and it's discounted entry, too! Ange, Williamstown, 01/06 If you're into all different types of music, from RnB to 80's, Barry's has a funky atmosphere with everyone keen on just having fun! Only problem is you have to get in early to avoid the queues. Oh AND the DJs pretty much play requests all nite. Yay!
