Knokke Out Zoute

Great place to party

Excellent event pro

Nice club

Elegant, modern, safe, fantastic beaches, the Monaco of the North

Great catering from Amsterdam - during a Belfius reception.

We went once, since then we have tried to go to Knokke Out in Waterloo on 3 or 4 occasions and on every single occasion we have been turned away, being told exactly the same thing – we are not regulars. It’s been the same bouncer each & every time. However, as my wife asked the eldest bouncer on the door, IF you don’t ever let us in, how on earth do we ever BECOME regulars?! We noted the younger bouncer looked rather embarrassed & uncomfortable at my question because perhaps he actually had some moral fibre and maybe would have preferred just to say, ‘Sorry, it’s just too busy and for Health & Safety reasons we can’t accept any more people into the club’. That, as a reason, we would have accepted. BUT to give us a whole load of bullshit and actually say something that could incite anger and perhaps trouble outside the club if we were perhaps people of a more aggressive nature? Not wise - and actually not a very good way of handling people (especially slightly drunk people); a skill I would have thought essential as a bouncer, no? He even tried to suggest that my wife was a ‘regular’ and so was our attractive female friend (who has never been to the club by the way), but that I was not! I would also suggest that it would be monumental feat of memory to recognise each and every single one of those, say 1000 people, who were at the venue that night, unless the bouncer has some form of autism I am unaware of and is in fact an ‘idiot savant’. But then surely, if the man has such a memory then he could be earning a lot more money touring the world showing off his amazing mental agility skills tor performing in LA, not working as an aging bouncer in a Belgian nightclub. All we wanted was a few drinks & a bit of a dance to celebrate my husband’s 38th birthday - is that too much to ask? We’ve now officially given up attempting to go there and are advising friends not to bother either and as you can see I am also putting my opinion very LOUDLY about Knokke Out on any review sites too. We are NEVER silent dissatisfied customers.

Very nice people, big covered terrace with nice sofas, cloakroom. Unfortunately, slow bar service. Huge amounts of broken glass on the floor, perfect for ruining your shoes, and awefull to walk/dance in.

Sadly a bad experience in this cool location. We've been there during the Zoute GP, they were totally under-staffed and they had no plan how to deliver a proper service. We asked several times to get our beverages and they came up after 1 hour waiting time that the desired drink was not available anymore... come on..., it's Zoute GP, if you don't have stock on that weekend, how will you make money? Because it is also not with the cold and overcooked food (buffet) that you secure your clients. The music was more or less good but they were totally over the edge of their capacities of service.
