Casa, Stafford

Casa is right next to the main club in stafford and opposite wetherspoons which always helps, its a really cool place to go hang out on a night out especially on tuesday nights for students. They have a deal of 5 VKs for £5 but you get a free shot with every drink you buy in there so its 5 drinks and 5 shots for a 5a. They have a really cool smoking area outside the front. Upstairs they have a dancefloor and a balcony for smokers too.

I’ve generally been to Casa on a Friday or Saturday night. In Stafford you’re pretty limited to where you can go out so thank goodness that Casa arrived!

It’s pretty expensive drinks wise and doesn’t have a proper dancefloor but it definately makes up for that in atmosphere. Great comfy seats upstairs, excellent shots and quite a diverse selection of music. You will have to check out the individual nights as the music on will be quite different for each night.

Casa is very smoker friendly with huge areas both upstairs and downstairs to hang out in.

I’d recommend signing up for Casa mobile updates which will let you know quite frequently what is going on at Casa that evening or in the future. Quite handy if you are not sure what to do at the weekend. They do have quite alot of promotions during the day too.

The best of the few places open late in Stafford.
Drinkies are not too expensive.
The bouncers can be a bit funny with people who are wearing something that doesn’t “fit” or if you are a little worse-for-wear.
Play some good (older and modern) tunes to have a boogey to - although annoyingly, the DJ does not mix well at all!!!
Good mix of different people!

Stafford is a bit limited for late night bars and clubs. Casa is the best one I have been too. Doormen can be a bit picky about clothes, sometimes allowing fashion trainers, sometimes not.. Good for a dance, and drinks don’t break the bank.

personally i have always had a good time when we have gone here on a night out. To be honest there is not much to do in Stafford on a night out so this pub just makes a change. Yes unlike Zanzibar it is not full of spotty teenagers which is also a relief really.

Its close to Chicago Rock and Weatherspoons so ideal locations for when one is completing a bit of a pub crawl.

Hey I dont no if anybody else feels this but Casa is not for students, its full of old men and woman going though mid life crisis- who want to look fashionable or feel aceptable when bingeing themselves stupid to shockingly cheesey music… Oh and its 2 pound to get in after 11…

The interior is cheap/or unstylish and is designed for old men to lie down horizontal when they have had to much fizzy wine. I would think its one of the only places in stafford were you breath in more smoke standing inside as well as out as the place is designed to be one great big smokefilled atmosphere under unmbrellas. I thought going home stinking of smoke was a thing of the past?

Oh and I thought you had to be 21 to get in? or have they lower it so old men can purve over skiply clad 17 year old with fake I.D pretending to be grown up and binge with people as old as there parents? Yuck!

Casa is a spanish style pub/nightclub that sells food during day. ace for smokers cuz they’ve got lots of heaters and a huge brollie!

To put it bluntly…at some point during the night, youve got to goto CASA!! ..but remember no trainers as my pal found out!

I had lunch here when it first opened. The staff were really friendly and helpfull and got the chef to make my carbonara without mushrooms - brilliant! It was a bit bland though, no seasoning…but not bad!
On any normal night the prices are average, maybe slightly more expensive than most places in Stafford.

On a Saturday, unless if you come here early on just dont plan on going, it is stupidly busy and the que to get in is huge!

Tuesday nights are brilliant in there, drinks are super cheap (like everywhere on a Tuesday - Student night)

The interior is fun, its got a big enough area to dance, the DJ upstairs is easy to get to, theres a brilliant outdoor terrace and there are comfy seats everywhere with loads of cushions. There are fluffy white curtains. The way its set out it kind of looks like a mix between a spanish bar and a pimps bedroom, I wouldnt be surprised to find a revolving bed there. I love it though. I’d say its one of the better places in Stafford and well worth a visit (especially on a Tuesday night!)

Casa is situated in the heart of Stafford’s nightlife area with Love2Love next-door, Wetherspoons across the road and Zanzibar around the corner. Therefore, it has to be good to compete.

The bar had not been open for long when I visited so the look and decor was still shiny! Everything was clean and tidy too, including the toilets which were rather a surprise; possibly the best to be found on a night out in Stafford (For those that care about such things!).

Prices here are what I would pay in a London pub, so £3 a pint. However, the quality is better. This is probably because the place was new though with clean pipes. I hope the quality stays.

There were deals on spirits when I went and the quality of the glasses were quite frankly a topic of discussion as my vodka coke appeared to be in a small vase.

There was a smoking terrace upstairs which I didn’t get to look at, however, judging by the rest of the place, it would have been good.

The music wasn’t too loud considering the venue’s small size and the staff were all friendly. Seating was comfortable with sofas and the bar had lights underneath it which changed colour periodically which confused many a tipsy student on my visit.

5 Stars because even though the prices weren’t exactly student-friendly, the quality made up for it.
