An amazing place to randomly find myself dancing to superb house music in the South Bay. When they have house music, all walks of life from the area gather round and everyone is grinning from ear to ear. The best times dancing the last few years have definitely been here!

This bar has a throw back feel with plenty of liquor to offer. Do not come here, however, if you are looking for beer on tap. Only bottled beers available.

I hope some day they will be able to play some mix song beside electronic only.

Eddie the bartender was amazing, great customer service and he recommended the best drink based on my preference, the apple martini when I didnt know what to order! They didnt have the all the ingredients for it either but still was able to accommodate my needs!

First time here with some friends. Thought it was a nice lounge. Drinks were good and priced right. In downtown Campbell and walking distances to many bars and restaurants.

Good music once the dj gets setup (usually by 10pm). The bouncers are polite and relaxed. Easy parking. Good atmosphere. Diverse crowd.

Good house music to dance to. Convenient location in downtown Campbell to go dancing after eating dinner at one of the local restaurants.

Great music and fun crowd, usually. Bartenders charged us different prices for the same drink. Vodka soda was $15, then $10, then $15. Its not a $15 dollar drink kinda joint ...

Too loud. Wont serve you if youre wearing a tank top on an empty Tuesday night, regardless of if youre the only two patrons in there. Ill take my money where I may drink in comfort.

DJ plays mainly burner electronic music, with occasional splash of R&B, reggaeton, and normal edm. They are the last club in Campbell that was able to keep there license after the scourge of 2018 nightlife from the city. This club is a sausage-fest graced with appearances of drop gorgeous dimes looking for some fun after a swirlz (or two).

Great drink selection, super friendly bartender, and later in the night it becomes a great dance spot.

Always get great service. Music sucks. Like techno 80s. Definitely calls to a crowd on ecstasy, you probably wouldnt enjoy this place sober.

Review №25

Quaint little spot. Mellow and refined vibe. Dtla parking always sucks, lyft or uber preferred. Craft cocktails are on point. Would be better if there was more room to dance.

Review №26

$2 off beers at happy hour. This includes a well chosen selections IPAs and even one Icelandic beers!The well drinks, which are usually the cheap liquor variety at most bars, are top notch here: Jack Daniels, Captain Morgan, Kettle one vodka: best bar in town️

Downtown Campbell for dinner? Take your self over to Cardiff and dance it off. Theres always a DJ spinning something funky! Good vibes, casual place. This is a Campbell landmark

Review №28

My absolute favorite bar. Any time I want to go out and enjoy myself, Cardiff is the first thing to come to mind. Dancing the night away to the sounds of house, with drink in hand and the disco ball spinning, what more could one want. Everyone is always friendly and the staff is great.

Who knew you could find good house music in Campbell? Heard about this spot from a friend and decided to check it out despite my reluctance based on the local. Place is awesome and reminded me of places like 26 Mix, Club 6, Liquid, etc., spot I used to hit back in the day in SF. Dont know when Ill get back but if Im in the area, Cardiff will be on the agenda.

Review №35

They charged me for water and then took too long to let me get my drink. One bathroom and no where to feel comfortable. Place is a hazard since they let too many people in at once.

Great dive bar they have like 20 day boards

Review №37

Now what I like is the good crowd. Place itself is a bit small or maybe too many people like to come here. Not sure. Bartenders are good in mixing the poison and music is good. I had good times and so did my friends. When in town again I will come back for sure.

Havent been back to Cardiff in a while but after last weekend, I had to give an updated review. As I approached Cardiff, a group of passing idiots regurgitated pure ignorance, yelling things that included ASIAN WOMEN!! and I CAN SAY WHATEVER I CAN AND GRAB YOUR ASS!In disgust I vented to the bouncer as he was checking my ID. Right at that moment, those FOOLS came back!! I pointed them out and the with a stern look, the bouncer said, I wont be letting them in.Its a small act but I instantly felt safer. Just wanted to say thank you.I remember rounds of drinks and fun energetic music. Totally chill place to stop by as youre bar hopping around Campbell.

Ive been an attendee of events here since 2007-2008. Theres always a decent crowd (both in number and attitude), respectful bouncers, and heavy pouring bartenders. Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and some Sundays, House Music is playing. Wednesday nights are hip-hop night. Not Lil John OKAAAAAY type, but classic, lyric-driven, conscious hip-hop. There is no TOP40 played at this spot, and thankfully there never will be.Reading lots of previous reviews, folks are really pissy about the whole No CA ID thing. After talking with the owner of the venue, as well as his bounce staff, I can break down exactly WHY they have this policy in place:A person with a suspended license (usually happens with a DUI) has no license, so is left to obtain valid identification by using a CA ID. Theres nothing wrong with this, but by weeding out patrons with CA IDs only, he prevents suspended license holders from coming in and drinking, which is probably what they did to get themselves in that position to begin with.Sometimes the rules dont make all the sense in the world, but theyre there as a safeguard for both patrons coming into the establishment, and the owners responsibility in providing a chill, drama-free environment. If you dont understand that, then this isnt the place for you.

Review №53

Genuinely the best music in San Jose, the DJs here are easily San Francisco quality house DJs. The dance floor is small but fun, no cover charge, and decently priced drinks. Wayyy less douchey than Campbell bewing co down the street which is easily one of the most douche laden bars in the bay area.

It should really be called The Vortex because once you go in its easy to lose track of time with the music, and drinks!

Its ok for dancing. They cleaned up the interior so its not as dirty as it used to be. Cocktails arent very good and a little over priced.
