Fabric had as much trouble when it opened as that other over-hyped London superclub, Home. Both feature cutting-edge sound systems and ultra-modern decor. But Home, just off Leicester Square, has to cater to the walk-in run-of-the-mill Saturday night in town crowd - whereas Fabric, over in the East, is there for the dedicated clubber. First place this shows is the sound systems - Home's is state of the art, but Fabric's is regularly deafening. Too much bass end and this thing gets painful, and boring as it sounds, that ain't always a pleasant experience. There are flaws with Fabric's layout - the bottleneck that always forms between ...  Read the complete review

Fabric is a quality venue with a great sound system and an even better music policy. The main problems with the club are that A, the que to get in is rediculous - not helped by bouncers/door staff making you wait for a stupid amount of time and B, the cost of spending a night in there is not cheap. the entry fee is £12 for a start, then you have to pay for the cloakroom, and the drinks are a plain rip off, if you put them down for a few seconds make sure you watch the bar staff as they tidy up your glasses before you even get to finish your £3.50 bottle of beer! On the plus side the music policy is excellent, a wide range of dance music is covered, hip hop, house, drum &  Read the complete review

I have now been to Fabric three times. The first time was the opening weekend and despite having pre-booked tickets on the internet we queued for 3 hours and didnt get in..dont ask it was somebodys b/day so we stuck it out. Needless to say Fabric were very good about it and very apologetic, we got VIP tickets for the second time and that was a good night out. If you can get in the VIP section you are laughing..leather couches..balcony overlooking the dance floor..room to move! The final time was as a regular visitor and it was much worse.far too busy and thumping hardcore same beat for twenty minutes type music. a real club addicts club..if you prefer charty dance music .  Read the complete review

What a line up! Liam Howlett the main man behind breakbeat techno punksters The Prodigy, James Lavelle Mo Wax guru and UNKLE coordinator and Talvin Singh winner of last year mercury Music prize. Fabric itself is a club situated in Farringdon, London. Along with Home it was launched in a blaze of publicity last year and unlike home has consistently hosted the best in ‘underground’ urban dance music. The whole place has the dank dark feel of a under ground cellar, albeit it a huge sprawling labyrinth of a wine cellar. There are three main rooms (or ‘spaces’) loosely connected by the main bar and stairwell and the place gets seriously jammed with ...  Read the complete review

The first thing I should say is that I've never listened to hard house at home. Like your average parent, I find it a bit repetative. Therefore when my friends first persuaded me to go to Fabric, I was a bit apprehensive. However I've now been three times and had some wonderful times. The club has a good layout, with one large main-room, a smaller second room and a (slightly disappointing) chill-out bit. But this is irrelivent because there is no reason to leave the main room. The times that I have gone have all been Saturday nights, when the House DJ Sasha has a residency. I advise everybody to experience his breathtaking ...  Read the complete review
