MBarGo nightclub in Kuta Bali

November 27th, 2006

MBarGo is the best nightclub in Kuta. Located across the street from the old Sari Club, this modern joint offers a dance floor, large bar area and lounge bar. Usually its is rocking and a favourite with Aussie tourists.

       
Friday night I rode down there to check it out, arriving around 11.45pm. The place was pretty empty and I sat at the bar, watching a re-run of Arsenal vs. Newcastle, along with the staff. All the while MBarGo’s sound system pumped out the tunes. Looking at their drink menu, I saw a selection of the usual cocktails, Caipirinha, Mojito, etc. prices ranging frm 45,000-55,000rp. Beers were 15,000rp, your choice of Bintang, VB, Fosters, draught Heineken. I enjoyed a couple of VB’s, definitely a different taste than Bintang.

Freidns of mine in the surfing industry have told me the lack of Aussies, means way slower business. Kuta and Legian are hit the hardest. Seminyak does okay, because of the expats and Euro’s. Between Idul Fitri and Christmas there is always a slump.

Places like MBarGo, that spend a ton on rent, staff, eqiupment etc. really need to score big on Friday and Saturday, as well as creating some excitement at other nights in the week. There just didn’t seem to be that much going on last night. I left around 12.45am and there must of been 20 people in MBarGo.
