Sat on York Way, it's pretty much equidistant between Caladonian Road, Kings Cross and Pentonville Road. 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.
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.
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).
