Friday Nights after 1am are hoppin. Not to mention the music they play on Fridays is a fun stream of remixed pop singles. Loved it! Bring cash for the coat check and get ready to dance! Also, you have to enter through«manor».

Great place to go to for late night clubbin. They play a lot of techno, progressive, trance type music. You have to enter through the alley around the corner from Manor. The place is kinda small, so if you don’t like bumping into people, then you’re gonna have issues here. It’s always packed around 2am, so i always try to get there before then. A lot of people keep telling me that monday’s are really good there, but I’ve only gone on fridays and saturdays… and those were good times also. There’s 2 bars, 1 is in the front when you walk in to the right and the other is all the way in the back near the dj booth. there’s couches and tables along the wall and a small dance floor in the back by the bar and dj. There’s always good looking people there and just like any other club, you’re going to meet some cool people and some total tools and yatches. Bottom line: Nice spot to finish off your night of partying. Trendy, chic atmosphere, great dance beats, good looking people all around, and alcohol served until the sun comes up. What more do you want?

This place is way too small and way too overcrowded. Not to mention the owners and bouncers are total douche bags. I’m not sure why I ever went here, but rest assure i’ll never come back. Avoid at all costs, don’t waste your time here!

If you want to be treated poorly by the club manager and the bouncers, then by all means go to this place. The place is overpriced and they do not care about their most loyal patrons. Really disappointed and would not go here anymore.

This place is cool, especially if you’re still in party mode and not wanting to go home yet. It’s open until 4am and 5am on Saturdays. Just know that this is an after hours spot — meaning you don’t start your night off here. You will be by yourself until the late night crowd starts rollin in around 2am. And that’s usually when the music gets better, anyway. So i assume ppl from Manor get sent here when they close at 2am and 3am on Saturdays. It’s not pretentious at the door, which is a lovely change of attitude from other clubs and they aren’t really strict on dress code or guestlists. That’s awesome. I prefer Monday nights after Angels and Kings when it’s Industry night — that would get it 4 stars… but alas, I am no longer built the way I used to be and can rarely ever come out Mondays let alone stay out partying hardcore past 2am. Poor me. But def a solid choice whenever I get my little boost of energy.

Around the corner from the Manor. Same company, same ownership. You know your there because it’s next to the alley. Black velvet ropes and a couple bouncers that couldn’t keep kids out of an overcrowded Chuck E Cheese. No signage of any kind, just an entrance through a dark entrance to a black painted door. My buddy and I are dressed like guys on their way to the corner pub for a pint and grub. Not my idea to come here, but I wasn’t the driving force so we just followed. Two other buddies who had the connections to get us all in. Four guys without girls going into a «DL» after party is unheard of, especially when not one is paying any cover. The guys which got us in are dressed in street wear. One guy has Tevas on! Fucking Tevas. The other is dressed for the couch and he’s the one calling the shots at the door. Bouncer doesn’t even think twice and their in, me and my buddy start to enter and the bouncer asks. «Are these guys really with you?» Giving us the attire stare. WTF kind of question is that? Shit. we’re dressed better, why the question.(This is clear indication of what kind of shit happens at a club or lounge entrance, their place. their bullshit) Rather than break his nose, I just walk in this bitch.(I should note that amongst the women, it wasn’t only the sexiest of ladies, I assume that the bouncers let all ladies come in because there was a hodgepodge of women. But there were very few guys in there. I was told about this after party by one of the bouncers at Manor.) Inside, the space is small. It’s got less square footage than a 7-eleven convenience store. The lights are dim and mainly some sconces along the walls. Everything is a bit blurry now, I was a couple patron shots and a few cervezas in at that point. There’s enough space on the dance floor for maybe twenty people to dance. Four tables for bottle service were already reserved. As more sexy women entered, the dimmer the lights got. Music was bangin’ but not as awesome at Manor. Within twenty minutes the place was jumpin’ and the girls were doing their sexy best to get every guys or girls attention. Drinks were expensive, more so than at Manor and shots well, my buddy still gives me grief over the coin I dropped on a few shots of patron. Two short bars located in the front and rear of the long room. I was surprised they had space for coat check and at the entrance three unisex washrooms with an always attentive attendant. Unless one of the washrooms were used for a hookup, getting through the line was speedy. Good times? For what it was, not paying cover and being with buddies, it was cool. Danced with beauties and flirted with brats. This is your spot for that last chance for a hookup. I don’t think I’d care to venture that way again. unless bro’s night out happens again. Hopefully not anytime soon. If only it wasn’t as stuck up as Manor is. I’m fine with three stars.

I had one of the worst experiences ever at Stay, otherwise known as Manor. I went there with a bunch of my friends on a Monday night to celebrate a birthday, I think there were 8 of us. We sat down in a nice couch area near the back bar, and we were all spending lots of money on their pricy drinks. After about an hour of chilling, the manager came over and forcefully THREW our stuff out of the area and told me he sold the area to bottle service and that we had to go. I tried talking with him but he wasn’t having it… his ego got in the way and he stated that he would drag my ass out of there and that he had politely asked me to move in the beginning. There was no ‘asking’ going on anywhere, you shouted at me and treated me like I wasn’t a PAYING patron. To make matters worse, the buss boy sent to help heard us out of the area grabbed the birthday girl’s arm so hard it made her spill her cosmo all over her white dress, she even has a bruise to show it. What a night ruiner, we were all so disappointed… The manager then sent over some shots, which was a very weak attempt to fix the situation. There was never an apology, nothing. I work at a near by bar and used to recommend people go to Stay Manor, now I tell them to stay away.

Great place for late night, just a shame it’s only late night. Around the corner on Erie from Manor after 1am, up stairs on the right. Fun crowd. Gets busy circa 2.30am. If this place gets over-crowded, could kill the fun and the dance room. Let’s(try to) keep it on the DL.

Been here twice, fairly easy to get in if you have the look. It is very small, not a good people watching spot because you will see everyone at least twice! The staff is wonderful, the barkeep is awesome! The music and atmosphere are great on Saturdays. I was able to go into Manor through Stay, which made me feel very special!

I went to Stay Last monday after Angels and Kings. It is right above Manor and kind of hidden … that’s why I guess there aren’t any other reviews. lol The Décor was nice and the DJ played great music… The crowd was good … It was an Industry crowd so it was way better than tourists… and trixies This place was fun for a weeknight for those of us who work all weekend.
