Reviews of Middlesex Lounge (Night Club)

Joseph O'Connor

Make it New Thursdays is THE best night in the Boston area. Can't miss. If you like house or techno and are in Boston there is no other place better than Middlesex on Thursdays.

Siddhesh Ghurye

Over hyped

Daniel Roca

This place is nice but there are better places

Ashley LaBossiere

Went here for a private event and paid my bar tab with my card and left a cash tip of $7.00 on a $38.00 bill and wrote cash in on the tip line but they still added gratuity to my card of $4.00. I wasn't going to call and complain about $4.00 but I find it ridiculous that someone would do that.

Ivan Cadiente

If you can get in, the music is great and fun vibe here

Str8 YPree

Terrible DJs, and the bouncer thought it was okay to put his hands on another individual.

Ralph Wender

Worst club ever. Paid 10$ to come in and the stuff was super unfriendly. Musik and drinks were ok. BUT a Friend of mine, who was there with his girlfriend was VIOLENTLY thrown out for doing NOTHING without talking in advance or anything!! Is this how you treat guests and paying customers?!

Matthew Keithley

Very straightforward establishment, drink and dance. Really picks up around 11:30-12:00.

Nick Nicolaou

Their bouncers think their above the law when I asked for my debit card, they started assaulting me.

Nicholas Neuwirth

Weekly Techno things

Last Saturday night was my first time here and I had a blast! The DJ was on point that night! Typical drink prices and although it's still not a huge dancing space, it's definitely still a good time! May want to get there a little early as the line can get pretty long. Also, lines for the bathroom can get a little crazy but, that won't stop me from going back and shaking a little tailfeather!

Kelsey McGlashan

Mediocre. The drinks were meh. DJ was ok. Space is very uninteresting and pretty small. Cover was $10 which is definitely not worth it for the size.

Linette Davis

It's only one room, not super interesting

Frieda Busic

Dancing at Vault every 2nd Tuesday of the month. We love it.

Lucas George

Skip this club, the bouncers record you and when an individual asked for his debit card he started getting recorded without consent.

Tuan Nguyen

great Thursday nights

Alison Hui

Small space, could have better seating

Michael George

Awesome sound system, legit DJ, poppin' dancefloor, and good looking crowd. But drinks are expensive and on saturday night the line for the bathroom is as long as the line to get in. It's probably faster to run over the the Asgard and come back. Also, watch out the sketchy dudes trying steal your wallet, or your girlfriend.

Luke Nehtolis

This place is smaller than a New York apartment, and why are the bouncers chilling outside with their "gang" of friends. Ironic how they all seem to disappear when police arrived. Find a better club in the Cambridge or Boston area.

Yan

hands down, the best dance club in central square. it's just 1 large, dark room, where the dj spins all sorts of music depending on the night. check out thursday nights for some deep house sounds. on weekends they artificially inflate the line, so get there early or be prepared to wait until 12:30 to get inside.

Jacques Jus

This place is good on both Friday and Saturday nights. The dj provides a good mix of new hits and old school. The crowd is very young, maybe due to its proximity to the Universities. They do not have a big variety of drinks though. They have their own cocktails mix which is not too bad.

Kenngon podcast

It was ok

Michael Finnegan

Great local spot, dance floor. Always fun

Peter

Three words... MAKE IT NEW !!! I will always love this place because of it's amazing Thursday nights.

Joshua Berk

Music sets the mood in this lounge open for beer, cocktails, and light foods. Cool without being pretentious, Thursday nights are a sure thing (Make It New, the Award-winning, seven-year old techno/house party). Other notable evenings are/were <3throb and CVLT. Bartenders + drinks are great; the place is one sprawling dance floor. Enjoy the break crew that regularly appears during the week.

Veronica Martell

Great music!

Iñigo Lorente

Cool people and music. Too small and crowded for an overpriced cover.

Nancy Figueroa

Very long wait, but a very good place

Shyam Sheth

Standard drink prices for Boston and has a cover charge, but hey, it's a lounge. One of the few nightclubs in Boston that actually plays rap! Heard Jay-Z - PSA, Migos hits, and snap music within close proximity of each other... DJ knows what they're doing.

Jacob Peskin

Good luck, seen the entire story and video posted on Reddit. This club is a DUB.

Christopher Tassone

This places varies A LOT depending on which night you go. For EDM on Thursdays, it's always a good choice. Other nights, it can be a ride.

Franton Lin

Middlesex is a pretty solid club in the Cambridge area. Fridays or Saturdays are a fun time, but the crowd and music can vary a bit. Sometimes there's a line around the corner at 11:30, and sometimes you can walk right in at midnight. The music is generally pop/hip hop - stuff that people know. Bathroom line is usually long, but you can just dance through the wait.

Rob Sheppard

Packs with sweaty dancing college kids. If that's what you're looking for, it does the trick, I guess.

james B

Good crowd, good music, great staff....always a good time

'ro maina

Went for HouseBoi...great staff/drinks, awesome crowd...

Tiffany Potter

Literally the best place to dance on the weekends. One of my favorites.

Melanie Silva

Don't waste your time. Worst club ive ever been to Cambridge, if you like being in a dark box with people shoving and pushing you and randomly touching you this is your spot lmao. Overpriced and bouncers will record/put their hands on a customer when they have no right to do so as a bouncer when the customer was asking for his card back. See you in court, got it all on video

Scott Jones

I love the minimalist atmosphere of this place. If you're going here club at night, make sure you get there by 10:00. Any later and you risk standing in some very long lines.

Topher Taylor

awful layout, Bicep was 5 stars though

Philip Anscombe

Loved it

Str8 yPree

Good luck trying to keep a sh1tty club going meanwhile you have guards who think their above the police. We'll see you in court. Check out reddit and 4chan as well.

Jack Robinson

They bought a cheap small sized box and called it a club. They have older bouncers who don’t even know the law nor do they follow it, their own bouncers will record you and put their hands on you. Lawyer up. Tons of better bars that won’t steal your debit card in Cambridge.

Ronin .

It's basically just a dance floor w a bar, so if your not there to do either of those things then oh well! Our group had fun. Wish the DJ would have let some of the old school jams play longer than 30 seconds a piece, but mix was good.

karinou mboka-boyer

Meh

Lemuel Boyce

Sometimes the music is hit or miss. But we usually have a good time.

cristian cabrera

The bouncers were awful. I had a broken foot and the guy at the door yelled at me for being disrespectful when i joked to my friends about having to be at a bar for a few while needing a doctor to help me for my foot. Terrible.

Randall Shutt

House music!!

kathryn irwin

Good play list but when requested a song the dj would not play it even though he said he would. Drink are very expensive!

Kat Jimenez

Slowing down entry when you have a discounted price before a specific time is Unprofessional

Rohan Jain

Hip hop music, young mix of people, cheap drinks. What else do you want?

Joe Turner

Maybe the clubbiest place in Cambridge. Fine if you're into that.

Gabrieljorama

Music is good. Prices are decent.

Michael A. Jones

Great place to eat drink and be merry!!

Colin McNair

Great DJs. Come here to dance.

Alex Birch

Solid dance events (I.e. Make It New) and good bar bites but the setup for these events and bathroom situation are atrocious. Put the DJ booth in the opposite corner and completely redo the bathrooms to increase capacity and then this might make for a fantastic venue. Sound system is solid and the crowd can get really weird.

Long John

Okay drinks

sammy Ayoade

Great place to go have fun, and have fun

Michael Poloso

Absolute trash

Smallie Michelle

Door guy was obnoxious but once inside we had a chill time and the DJ was awesome.

Kathryn Day

The offer a burlesque night which is kick-ass.

SARAH COHEN

Love Love the food selection. Last time I was there got an amazing cocktail and nacho's and a quesadia . The nacho's were to die for!!! the quesadia was really good too!

Jordan Lucas

If you enjoy overpriced drinks and bouncers that record you / put their hands on you, you'll love this club. 0/10, never again.

David Day

Thursday night is one of the greatest club nights in the world

Gloria Asaba

Ride bartenders the place is just not worth it

David De Ridder

Best club in the Boston area on Thrusdays only

Andrew Weida

Fun place to dance.

Ricky Warski

If you like dancing in the dark and paying overpriced for overpriced drinks, then this is the club for you. Watch out for bouncers recording you without consent. Fat black guy with dreads was recording me. malaka

Farah Hani

Rude bartenders, long queue and boring music

valeria barletta

Good music on Thursday night

Jillian Burgess

Great place for dancing and hanging out with friends. There's a DJ playing a variety of music too.

25 Seconds

Best Dee Jay's and great vibe . I love the place

C. Drakes

Only decent when Kon is on.

Anthony DT

Great vibes, dope music. Went on a Saturday and they played a mix of ragaetron, dancehall and hip hop. Dress code isn't strict either. Overall great time.

Parth Patel

It was a nice lounge, I felt that the area they had was small compared to the crowd they had. They had people waiting outside to get inside so that is always a good thing. We got in early when there were less people so we did not have to wait for the line. The bartenders made sure that it had enough alcohol in cocktails and other drinks unlike other places where they put no alcohol. I recommend this place.

Lina P

They have good DJs come through every so often.

Yvonne Raia

Nice dance room. Nothin fancy just dance with no judgement. Good sound system. Great friendly staff.

Michael Tibebu

Enough space to dance and sit around when there is not a lot of people but their is not a single HIPHOP song being played. Mostly what they play is oldschool random songs. When you are a club and you are promoting to be playing the best songs and having the best DJ, then you would want to stand up to your pronounced statement. Unless you are on drugs I am sure no one would dance to that type of music. Play hit songs and entertain the crowd that is paying to get in the club to have fun on days off. Any way I got in I played the cover got a drink; finished my drink and left to another club, total disappointment.

Payum N

Huge fan of the Thursday night events.

Venkat Vedam

Great sound and great ambience. Every single time!!

Jeremiah Samuel

There is a bald bartender who looks like an arab, who is very Disrespectful.

Tomas Jimenez

Best place in cambridge to dance on Thursdays

Abhirup Dutta

Drinks are overpriced. Th DJ did an okay job at best, didn't seem to know what songs the audience liked. Nonetheless, the place offers a great dance floor that's big enough to accommodate the huge crowd.

Matthew Cox

Needs another bathroom or five

Isabelle Pierre-Louis

Great place to go out at night

Joe Payne

Just not impressed. They should do something else with the set up. Seating is strange. Large bathroom lines infront of the DJ booth. Food was good though.

Katur Patel

Came here for drinks on a Friday night. The always have new DJ's so cover is about $10 and the line gets pretty long so come early if you want to avoid that. Given it was the end of the year and most of the area students are likely gone there was no line but the place filled up by 11ish. The music was a good mix of throwbacks, hip hop, r&b, and top 40. They have a coat check but most people just leave their coats laying around the edges of the room. The drinks are well made and run about $8-10 with a fairly attentive bar staff.

John Bracaglia

The music and vibes are great (especially for Thursdays), but they put the bathroom line directly in front of the DJ booth! It's insane!!!

Jason Williams

Best DJs in boston

Martha Velasquez

Super

Picture Upload

Biggest joke of a club that I’ve ever been to. Make sure you check your bank statements after you leave. I wouldn’t even call it a club, more of a shoe sized box.

Yumi WIchirakon

Great place to dance like its no ones business with friends and people who really enjoy going all out with their moves. Perfect DJ sets always. Just a really cozy place with good vibes, cheap drinks (no creeps), so much fun always. Very quality place for good music and people.

Ian Tracy

I came here one evening and coat-checked an expensive coat. When I went back with my ticket to claim it, the coat was gone! They did very little to help me find it and did not compensate me one dime. Really recommend you go elsewhere on your weekend evenings.

Uz M.

It's a hit or miss tbh

Ronice Kimbrel

Great people, strong drinks

Binggie Ambrose

Fun place for drinks an dancing. Good dance and R&B music.✌

Cristiano Ronaldo

Their bouncers will record you and physically try to assault you. As soon as the police arrived, all their friends ran away and the owner tried protect this nonsense, stay away from this club.

Asya Bashina

I love the variety of events offered at this venue. The playlists are very good for the weekend dance parties. The bartenders make really delicious drink combinations. The cover is cheap.

Tony Lopez

Great dance place

Mpumelelo Nxumalo

Good times!

Alexandra Kaplan

Fundancing great dj.

Jasmine Pres

I love the music, spacious dance floor, and they don’t skimp on your drinks!

Cambridge Girl

Best bartenders ever!

Amir Yavari

Although the musics are good but I dont trust the bar tenders. They charged my credit card $60 instead of $30. I called my credit compony and they cancelled the entire transaction!!!! But if you wanna use your credit card be careful!!!

Maya Mukhopadhaya

Bare bones but good music and fun for dancing

Victor Wang

Not exactly upscale, but if you don't mind a tight squeeze, this is a fun place to just go and dance with some friends. Late nights it's set up mostly as big open space to encourage dancing, and there is limited space for sitting down or putting your stuff (no coat check of course, just on the seats). So don't bring a huge coat/purse/etc unless you want to be worrying about it all night.

kurt kim

No light, like dancing in the cave.
