I used to go to the banque all the time. This was many years ago. It was a fun place to dance, meet people and have a good time. There was not a lot of drama like today. When I go in, I feel very uncomfortable. The atmosphere is young and so are most of kids that are there. The drinks are overpriced and so is the food. The cover charge is too much and you are never told when prices are raised. You go in expecting to pay one price and are shocked when it is something differnt. The staff turn over is high and the guy who has white (gray) hair says the club is his. I know the owner and I also know that the guy who says it's his is lying to everyone he tells this too. Too bad the owners don't have open eyes or ears when it comes to this. I could be a fun place again. Get rid of the white haired man and bring back the bands, at least on the weekends. If not the bands, at least bring a friendlyer staff. The blond at the door does not stay at the door long enough to know who is coming into the club. She is always on a break or flirting with all the single guys. Keep your hands to yourself and leave the married men alone. Over all, the banque could be fun again if they had the right staff in there. Don't think I'll be going back there any time soon.

Pros: lots of military

Cons: too expensive
