Recess at CollegeTown reviews
12Be weary when coming to this place. Look at the bad reviews and take them seriously. I came here with 5 friends, we booked a table and they kicked me out immediately for dancing on the chairs of the table we just bought. I told them I was sorry and that it wouldn’t happen again (any club I’ve ever been to it’s never been a problem to do this) they refused and kicked me out after we had just spent around $1000 on our table. Entitled white girls who run the show here, I will never be back lol. Go see how a club works literally anywhere else and maybe y’all will be humbled. Worst experience I’ve ever had especially when booking a table & spending that kind of money. Seems to be a trend here based on reviews tho.
Last night i watched a girl get assaulted and multiple girls ended up yelling and cussing out this 30 year old man. A security guard saw this happening and then grabbed the girl that has been assaulted and said she needed to leave, instead of the man. The girls started cussing out the security guard saying he couldn't do that. He then proceeded to DAP UP the guy and laugh with him about the situation.
I love cess. Every night is a cess night. Especially when it’s free. Okay only when it’s free. The tequila could be better but that’s okay I come for the ambiance. The only thing that could make cess better—6 STARS IF YOU WISH—is an update to the pool design. A waterfall at the end maybe? Some tiles on the bottom to hide the trash? Love my midnight swims here though!
I reserved a table from Anita 2-3 weeks before the FSU Notre Dame Game. Our table minimum was $500 so I put a $100 deposit on the table. She reaches out to me the day of our reservation to confirm we would be there. I get a call/text shortly after that someone outbid our table and we needed to now spend a minimum of $1000. I said ok - an hour later - she texts again and said we got outbid and now need to spend $2000.
This is not how you treat reservations. She claimed her owner created an outbidding “policy”. Loser!
Security is absolutely horrible and will kick you out for the most minor situation. I was once kicked out because of my flashy belt and thought I was sagging.
I came here with 5 friends after a FSU game. We bought a table with a $1000 minimum and had a fine time.
At the end of the night when it came time to pay my tab the attendant didn't like how I signed my signature and made me resign it to "match my drivers license. " I'd signed my DL years ago on a screen at the DMV. After calmly making my best effort, she departed and would not return my credit card.
I went into the back office and asked for the manager. He handed me a minimum of 3 copies of my check, demanding I sign each of them "like my drivers license. " I requested my American Express back from him and he refused and became confrontational. He said he was going to call the police if I didn't sign more copies of the receipt and I invited him to call them.
At this point I said forget it and departed the building. I had to cancel my Platinum Amex and have another card sent to me.
I've never had such an experience at a restaurant or bar. I spent $1000 and was treated like a criminal, threatened, and refused to give me my credit card back. If you go to this establishment, know they don't value your business and I would suggest paying cash so they can't steal your credit card.
Look tbh play real music I feel like people would rather hear rap and Spanish music over edm
Wow what isnt there to say about Recess? Its a fun loving exciting environment with lights and aesthetics that are perfect for a rooftop club. The staff is extremely friendly and if your lucky enough to get Frenchy as your bartender your drinks and experience will be unmatched! A great place to let loose with a bunch of friends and kick back a few drinks
Incredible roof top bar with a perfect view of Doak Campbell stadium. Always clean, awesome staff, and I’ve never waited for more than a minute for my drink. Would definitely come here again.
Love the atmosphere and vibe. Drinks are reasonable but you do automatically get charged 20% or more tip each time. I got two vodka cranberries and two shots of tequila on one trip and the vodka cranberries were $4 the tequila shots were $2 with tax and automatic tip my charge was $19.20.the second trip to the bar for two vodka cranberries I had to buy two because $10 limit on card was $16.80.that's still comparable to other places so not a big deal. Just a heads up. The girls fee was also cheap $5 and the guys were $10.
The place had a good vibe, drinks were delicious had an okay time fue to the fact I didn't stay long
Unique place right on campus at FSU. There weren't bars like that when I went to college
