Went for the Wednesday glow party and it was awesome. Great kind friendly staff, great price drinks and amazing music. The DJs were killing it .

The club would be great IF they played decent music. We liked the atmosphere but the dj tonight was/is horrible. He was playing some sort of odd techno music with an accordion in it. We stayed for half an hour waiting to see if the music would improve but it didn’t. The group of people who arrived after us nope’d out right away. When we arrived we were the first in and no one was there after us.

Had a lot of fun dancing, slightly obsessed with the time machine drinks now ?...Only missing a star because my shoes kept coming off of my feet (causing me to lose my balance) with the amount of stick on the floor ?

Dj was so rude

Decent music with elite vibes, stay away from ordering a "time machine" if you want to keep you dignity or have any responsibilities the following day. I would write more if I didn't get blackout drunk but my friends said I had fun..... ill be back one

The DJ was very rude actually and doesn't take any requests and cuts you off typing and then changes a song every minute which I think is a bit ridiculous and the coat check girlie must feel pretty entitled in her position too but the bar staff were good.

I wanted to suck face with the Sasquatch himself but the drink called a “Time Machine” made sure that didn’t happenWill try again next year

Best club in Banff, but it's small so be sure to arrive early.

A group of us went to the Sasquatch to dance after dinner on the weekend. There was a little bit of an incident involving another guest. The door person Megan was right on top of it. She handled it with a high level of professionalism, as did the rest of the team.
Abysmal music. They're still playing pop hits from 2010.... Those weren't good in 2010, and they're absolutely un-dancable now.

I initially didn’t want to go into the Dancing Sasquatch as I’m a bit past my “club” days and much prefer a more chill bar/patio situation. But it was the last night of my bachelorette party and the group wanted something more high energy so we swung by after dinner around 10:30 PM and honestly - I was pleasantly surprised! Granted, I already had incredibly low expectations due to the existing poor reviews but the ambience was pretty great and the place itself was much more clean and modern than I thought it would be.Yes, there are plenty of young 18-20 year olds but I was fully prepared for that considering the drinking age in Alberta is 18. Honestly, I was more aware of the many other bachelorette and bachelor parties going on. Our group got there right as it was starting to get full so we had plenty of space on the dance floor and had no issues dancing around each other.Now on to the important parts - drinks and DJ. Some drinks were a bit watered down for sure but, compared to where I’m from (Chicago), they were much cheaper than what I would have to pay in a similar spot so I don’t know if I’d personally call them overpriced. With that said, I did end up going back to the bar more frequently to get a refill until we started getting more “pre-made” drinks like White Claws and canned drinks since it’s kinda hard to water those down. Other than that, the service as pretty quick and friendly enough.As for the DJ - I have incredibly mixed feelings. Overall, the song selections were great. Plenty of variety to appeal to the masses. But where they struggled was with transitions. It was very weird to hear an absolute banger of rock song - Fat Bottomed Girls - get cut off half way and transitioned to Started from the Bottom. I get the intention but the execution fell flat. This happened many more times throughout the night. Luckily, our group was smashed enough not to care.Once it started getting pretty late, the music turned a bit more EDM-y and that was our cue to leave.

Some songs weren't well known. LEVELS played though so it was good.
