The IVY: Cleveland Bar Guide

Had a blast seeing Level Up, Bassdrip, Lizard, Avilys, and Lit Wilson! If you get there early, it's easy to get a good spot. Doors were at 8 and there was no line. By 10, it was a little crowded. By 11, it was packed. Staff there were crushing it. I have no idea what all was going on but they seemed on top of it every time. They were all friendly and professional, even when I kept accidentally getting in their way while dancing 😂. Sorry again to the employee I tripped and almost made faceplant. Kudos to the one hostess who I asked about a coat check. She initially said they didn't have one, which made sense to me given the tight venue. She found me, maybe 10 minutes later, and apologized saying she didn't realize they made an exception that night for the event and took me right to the coat check.

Was a great experience! Great service, Jason was super on top of everything. Had a VIP table and was taken care of. Looking forward to future events! Definitely planning for next year and having a birthday party or three here! Had the best view at table 5. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a good place to party in Cleveland!

Great place for fun Thursdays and weekends 💯 A more upscale club with all genres of music. Also they have top djs 🎉 in the industry and bottle 🍾 service. Plus another bar right below it for a more casual experience. Nader is always a great host. If you are in the 216 check out the ivy. And tell them Diesel and Mo sent ya 🎉🎉 @dieselandmo

I was in a group with 3 of my friends. The bouncer at the side door let all of my friends in and stopped me and cut me off from them. I said “But I’m with them” and he goes “Well they didn’t say they were with you”. His tone was aggressive so I immediately left. Mind you, I am 27, sober, and not breaking dress code. I have never felt so humiliated and degraded. My friend knows the manager and brought him out and the bouncer told him I was yelling at him and they still did not let me in. I never yelled at him - I never said anything but that I was with them and respectfully left when he asked. I’m not sure why this bouncer felt such a hostility towards me, but it was clear he felt I was suited to be left by myself and put at risk to be in an unsafe situation. Was I not pretty enough? Did he feel like taking his frustration out on someone? I am truly disturbed. This ruined my Halloween and I will never return here again and will let others know about my experience too.

Had a private event here and it was the best experience! The staff actually took the time to take care of us make sure we had everything we needed and made sure it was an enjoyable experience! I feel like good service sometimes is hard to come by but all of the staff here are hospitable and all round great people and we had an amazing experience and couldn’t recommend more! After I private event we stayed and continued to have a great and memorable experience! Thank you guys so much!!
