A Sauchiehall Street bar and basement live-music venue, part of Glasgow's alternative scene since 1991, with gigs, club nights and DJ sets most nights of the week.
Nice N Sleazy is a bar and live music venue at 421 Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow, part of the city's alternative and indie scene since 1991. It occupies part of a Category B listed classical tenement (401-427 Sauchiehall Street), designed by Horatio K Bromhead around 1870.
The ground-floor bar has a stylish, careworn feel with murals, low-hanging lamps and worn leather booths; downstairs, the basement is a sparser room with a black-and-white dance floor, a small stage and a loud sound system. Both rooms programme gigs, open mic nights, vinyl open-decks sessions and club nights across most nights of the week, including the weekly Trad Thursdays folk night and club nights spanning techno, garage and electro.
The venue is available to hire for gigs, club nights and private events; hire includes the PA, lighting and smoke rig, an in-house sound engineer and use of a small green room. Weekend slots book up quickly.
