This review is taken from the current (2011) edition.
It isn't pretty and it smells of the night before but what Nice n Sleazy does is good music, good drinks and the food’s not too bad either. Celebrating its official 20th birthday in October 2011 with a month-long party, Sleazy’s is finding its regulars from back in the day are returning as well as continuing to draw in a stream of new music lovers. Until 9pm daily there is a reasonably priced bar menu on offer. Snacks like nachos and potato wedges fill a small gap – go for the wraps and you get a healthy side of tortilla chips. The Sleazy burgers are very tasty and even though the halloumi option is deep-fried, the wholemeal seeded bun and generous salad won't make you feel too guilty. Other pub staples like macaroni cheese and beef or veggie lasagne are also available. Head to the bar for dessert because a beer or cocktail is probably more tempting than anything on the menu, with Williams Bros Scottish beer being served here since 2010. Nice n Sleazy is nice and its low lighting and graffiti walls do make it feel a bit sleazy – but it is also friendly, eclectic and welcoming, has an excellent retro arcade game and the club nights mean you can stay there until 3am.
- High point: Cheap food and cheerful staff
- Low point: Dead flies in the vinegar

They don't mention in their website/ gig promos on the List that if you turn up alone you wont be allowed in. Charming - kick a guy when he's down! :-(
