As far as beautiful women, you can't go wrong at Mink. 3 to 1 girl guy ratio. But I havent been there in over a year.

Maybe but the past 3 times I've been (needed a change of scenery) I've seen 3 fights break out in the span of 20 min.

how about the club itself, does it usually pack? what style of music...etc. Thanks for the feedback guys!

pretty tiny, usual Richmond Str. crowd/music

but some nice decor inside, otherwise hardly different from clubs like Inside, 7even etc

i havent been there in a few years but it used to be a mixture of house and urban. the patio is absolutely gorgeous.

starting on may 20th, the official boat cruise afterparty will be on the mink patio every sunday from 5pm until whenever and will feature some of toronto's best house talent.

i went there once and saw manzone & strong spin on the rooftop patio. it is a beautiful club. i loved the patio, but just not the crowd that i enjoy being around. i would definately go back though if they brought in a big name, and kept the ticket price up to keep the z103 crowd away.

my good buddy is actually in charge of the promotion for the friday nights their (platinumworld.ca) and lately ive been stopping in every once in a while to mingle before heading out to various other house geared clubs........the patio is amazing, its basically three different levels, all canopied (sp?) and you can smoke and everything, inside....the dancefloor isnt really that big, and its odly shaped, but the decor is nice and on fridays it DEFINATLY rams. Really not a bad club to check out on a friday, very nice people, the music is typical richmond, but overall not a bad vibe at all.

I used to go here pretty regularly last year and the patio upstairs is absolutely beautiful. It plays commercial house music for the most part. Keep away from downstairs...way too much r&b and I've seen a few fights break out. It is more of a "pick up" kind of place vs. other EDM clubs that we talk about here....people don't dance much...just kind of bop...


Posted by Endlesswave on May-10-2007 04:08:

Yep. As for the music, the upstais is the commercial housier type stuff that was mentioned in here.

Mainstream House upstairs on the patio.

Urban/Top40 inside. I wouldn't recommend going there - shitty music and hot/stuffy.

It's somewhat of a singles bar - guys and girls go there to hook up.

P.S. They shot a couple of episodes of "Keys to the VIP" in Mink: http://broadband.thecomedynetwork.ca/comedy/?sid=49
Watch episode 2 - I went to the same highschool as Patrick, and he just gets owned brutally by the women in this episode.

Haha oh man I watch that show once in a while...it's hilarious!!! Definately the place to hear and observe the worlds worst pickup lines/ attempts! And sometimes you catch a glimpse of people you know!

Yes! Hahha. I never associated myself with these pickup artists, so watching/hearing the tactics they use to pick up girls is hilarious. But what's even better are the shootdowns from the girls. Those are soooo fuckin golden.
