Square Nightclub

When i went to order my drink the bartender said “are you sure about that?” and looked down at my stomach assuming i was pregnant. nope just an obese woman that wants to drink her problems away without being questioned. 0/10 experience, get better staff.

I only go on Wednesdays for karaoke, but the environment has always been super judgement free. (even when I butcher every song I sing) The regulars are awesome and super welcoming and it genuinely feels like a truly safe space to just be you. Idk about any other night tho. Also they pour strong as hell.

Extremely rude and disrespectful staff. They are definitely on a power trip and love to scream at customers when a simple hey we prefer you don’t do that would be sufficient. owners need to reevaluate their staff.

Don’t go here if you want to actually drink! I had one shot and someone went up to me and said “alright that’s enough” and escorted me off the premises. So unfortunate.

The bouncer called me a homophobic slur and grabbed my arm and forcefully threw me outside. Do not go here if you want to be at a gay friendly establishment

Such horrible service. TJ is so disrespectful and rude. To talk about someone behind there back and act like a nice person to my face. What a back staber. Lost a customer and business. I will never be coming back.

Allison will take care of you . So well I took time to write a review.

This place used to be a great time, however recently the quality of the guest experience is extremely poor.I know music taste is subjective but the music they play is lackluster most weekends. This is made apparent by the empty dance floor.Many members of the staff are rude and show no accountability, this is proven by the way they reply to negative reviews.If you do decide to come here steer clear of the bartender Jim W. He will go out of his way to be rude to you. He has an absolutely awful attitude and should stay far away from the service industry.Lastly, and most concerning is the quality of the alcohol they serve. About a month ago I ordered a glass of my preferred liquor neat. What I received tasted so ridiculously far from what I know this liquor to taste like that he either mixed up the bottle with a lower tier liquor or they are not being honest about what’s in their bottles. I have experienced this on more than one occasion. Buyer beware.

Bartenders are always snobby and stuck up attitudes. Like you have to be part of a High school click in order to belong. This could easily be fixed. Hire 100% all new staff and business will improve. Only bad vibes here.

Went to square on a busy Saturday night, Allison went above and beyond. Remembered me and my friends drinks on a super busy night. Beyond impressed 10/10 would recommend

Friendliest bartenders and best DJs in town

Easily one of my favorite bars in Akron. Love the drag shows they host, love the drinks, and love the people who show out ready to have a fun time!If youre looking for a place to drink and dance, come on by. You WILL NOT be disappointed!!

I have had many great times in this bar. Everyone inside, patrons and bar tenders, are very nice. Its a great place to dance away your worries with the help of well priced and well made drinks. I like the atmosphere because there are a lot of different rooms and places to sit. They have coat racks too, which is a plus.

I recently left a review, do to my poor experience at this location. They recently responded by accusing me of being rude and treating staff poorly. They must not even realize who they are responding to because I was not even rude to staff. I stayed for 5 minutes and left. It seems funny to me how they respond negatively to all of the bad reviews. The ownership of this establishment has no place in the service industry if they do not know how to properly deal with complaints and trainer staff. Is an operations manager oh, I will give you the advice that you need to work on how you present yourself go through your actions and your correspondence online. Never get into a back-and-forth exchange, especially online. You, as the business owner, will always lose that. You are losing the respect and credibility of any clientele you want to visit your establishment. I wish you the best of luck

Its a club atmosphere on the weekends with cool lighting and good music. The drinks are made well, with a heavier hand, so they are worth the little extra price in comparison to the bars around it. The week is more relaxed with nice bartenders to chat with. They have a pool table and nice sitting areas inside and an enclosed outdoor patio for smoking. Gay friendly.

Edit-My first experience here was not great, but things were a lot better the last time I went. The bar tenders were friendly and didnt openly judge me for not knowing much about alcoholic beverages. They made amazing drinks for me with the vague descriptions I gave of what I wanted, such as some thing fruity and delicious.The bouncer was super cool and non judgemental when he let me know I shouldnt go back inside when I clearly had enough. Im very glad I went back to give it another try.

I just went there and asked for a song to be played and the dj was very rude. I asked for I wanna dance by Whitney Houston to be played and he rolled his eyes at me then sucked his lips. Which was crazy because my friend and I were the only ones dancing. Idk what’s up with that bar , maybe because I was a black women and he just disregarded what he said. It was honestly horrible treatment, just for asking a song. Honestly, I wouldn’t recommend coming here after my experience tbh

I love dancing here on Saturdays, karaoke on Wednesdays. The bartenders are great, and so is the music

Generous pours, friendly staff, and an open and welcoming environment. Great for dancing on the weekends. Best karaoke on Wednesday. More reserved with a local feel during the week but always a good time

Clean and friendly staff. Good.musoc and a solid dance floor. Allison is especially amazing and made the evening super memorable!!

I was simply adjusting my mask and the bartender rudely yelled at me. I did not take my mask off like everyone at the bar did and there are no social distancing measures in place at all. The health department needs to visit this place.

Not nearly as hopping as I had hoped it would be. I enjoyed myself and encourage you to check it out.

Fun little bar, great for dancing but can get way to crowded. Not many places to sit and bathrooms are single stalls. But the drinks are cheap and it’s a good time.

Best nightclub in town! Love the bartenders! Don’t miss the most popular karaoke spot, on Wednesday’s 10-2, and come out Sunday night and listen to some Jazz

Ive gone twice, both times it was pretty empty. most of the people seemed to be gay men or straight women.

Not bad. Music is loud, temperature is hot and the floor sticky. My gin and tonic was a little weak. Good mix of people, though.

Cool place, good bartenders, Josh and TJ make good drinks! Have had a lot of fun here

Lovely martini themed gay bar. In a great, artsy area of Akron. Tons of entertainment options nearby to fit nearly any style. Very walkable area.

It was a slow night, but DJ played what we requested (we were the only ones dancing). I was DD so didnt get a drink, but patrons and barkeep and DJ seemed nice.

Im a DD picking up my husband and friends. I went in to the bar to get them and the bouncer forcefully put his hands on me and pushed me. When I told him I was here to get my husband

I love this bar! Amazing bartenders, good environment, recommend to come here on any day of the week!!

Discriminates against people. Would not be let in even though I showed two forms of ID because they were not from Ohio and I have 2 last names. Looked it up it’s not even the first time it happens in this place. I don’t know if it’s stupidity or just sad.

Fun clean bar great dance music live entertainment karaoke night trivia night jazz night fun times great drinks friendly staff cool Ambiance every room seems to have its own little theme really well thought-out space

Love this bar and the people who frequent. Some of the best bartenders Ive ever had the pleasure of tipping.

Service is lacking bartenders are rude ignores you when you try to buy a drink and often leaves from behind the bar when people are waiting for drinks

Great decor and great music selection. Drinks are ridiculously cheap. Great choice to have a great time with friends.

Closed? I tried to go here on a Friday night, but I couldnt find the entrance. Otherwise would have three bars next door a closed business and a movie theater. This place must be closed. Too bad.

The ownership here is very rude to customers. Just take a look at how argumentative they are on the reviews online. Avoid this dump!!

The bar has a nice customer base the bartender not that friendly.

Nice atmosphere. Pleasant bartender! Good drinks

Always friendly. Great dancing. Good drinks!
