The Venue
Although Egg is branded as one of Kings Cross' clubs, it's worth pointing out that its quite a walk from Kings Cross station. Sat on York Way, it's pretty much equidistant between Caladonian Road, Kings Cross and Pentonville Road. However, the owners of Egg don't shy away from the fact it's a difficult place to get to and organise the Egg Bus - a free shuttle bus service that takes clubbers from outside The American Car Wash, by Kings Cross station on York way - a great idea.

It isn't the most attractive area in London, but once inside the rather sophisticated entry system – similar to an airport security check – you'll soon forget this. With three floors and a garden, this place is huge and there's something for everyone. You've got a warehouse style basement area at the bottom, playing minimal house; the middle floor, club-like section hitting up heavy house tunes; and the trendy loft area at the top, hosting random live bands and more commercial house tunes – think of great house and dance classics from the ‘90s that you forgot even existed and bands you'd never imagine would play in a house venue.

Best of all is the garden area – something that makes the venue really unique. It's a chilled out area with funky furniture and clubbers arrive at all times of the day and night to sit and chill on the bean bags. This section can also be hired out as a VIP area at certain times of the year and there's even somewhere you can get Caribbean food if you get hungry. At the weekend, the party starts at 10pm and goes on until late Sunday, only shutting for a few hours in between.

The Atmosphere
The type of people who visit Egg fall into several categories – you've got students (who are likely to increase in numbers when the new development opens), old skool ravers who want to party like they did in the ‘90s, groups of non-Londoners visiting the city for a good night out, and randoms who are just unwilling to call it a night and unable to find anywhere else open at that time of the day. What is sure about Egg is there's a distinctly happy vibe – you get the sense that clubbers here have been planning their night of dancing for a while. And because of this, they're really up for a good time.

The Music
It's not advisable to visit Egg if you want a night dancing to commercial pop. Although the house music played varies depending on whether you're in the loft, basement, garden or middle floor, it's aimed at relatively hard-core clubbers, who are up for a heavy night of dancing. If this isn't you, however, it's worth checking out the listings of the bands playing in the loft - you might surprise yourself and hear something as random as a jazz band. The venue lists all DJ acts, which are on signs clearly displayed around the venue. There are regular day and nighttime sessions - notable favourites include Alwayz Frydays on a Friday and Breakfast at Egg on a Sunday morning.

The Drink
Unsurprisingly, Egg doesn't have the greatest range of drinks – think spirit and mixer or bottle of lager – and perhaps the odd cocktail if there's a themed night on. They're quite expensive, too (around £2.50 for a bottle of water). But if you want to get a drink in most Central London dancing spots, would you expect anything else?
