We showed up to a Saturday party at SpotLite around 11pm and parked a few hundred feet from the building. I was driving with 3 others in the car.
It was 30 dollars each to get in so 120 total at the door. There were a lot of people there and the music was good. We were having fun. Between us four, we had 2 drinks each, the girls drinking Paloma’s, which they said were good, and my friend and I drinking 2 beers.
We couldn’t check our coats because the cost check was taking so long and every trip to the bathroom was a really long wait.
The bar tender seemed like he was having a terrible night and had a mean-mug pouty face on and seemed upset we were ordering drinks from him.
We were ready for our third and last drink at 1:45 am but the pouty bartender told me the bar was closed and wouldn’t serve anymore with no last call, even though someone 10 feet from me just got served and he served the guy right ahead of me.
The girls were disappointed but we stayed for a bit longer and left.
When we got to the car I discovered my passenger front window was smashed and glass was everywhere.
It was about 9 degrees outside and it took awhile to get all of the glass off the seat…it was all over the car. The would-be thief opened the glove box and searched through it.
I walked back to the club while my friend got the rest of the glass off of his seat and walked up to the security vehicle parked in front of the club. She was clam baking out the security car with weed and when she rolled down the window she seemed upset I would bother her about trying to get back into the building to talk with someone. After being as nice as I possibly could despite the callous attitude, she pointed me to a door I could try. I got back into the club and looked for the owner or someone in charge. Someone at the DJ booth told me they already left and said all I could do was talk to the people at the bar.
I told them what happened and the guy was visibly annoyed and upset I would bring that up to him. I suggested I wanted to try to recoup a few bucks since we spent about 200 and that made him even more annoyed while he said in a sharp pissed off way, “we’re not paying for that!”
Very bad attitudes of everyone I came into contact with. No caring whatsoever by anybody or even someone saying sorry. They just said “that sucks” in a pissy way, while the high security officer wasn't doing her job.
It will be 250 to fix the window with my deductible and I have to miss work tomorrow to have it fixed before Christmas, not to mention driving home freezing.
Terrible experience and strange aggravated people at the club. Open drug use by the security officer Lolo and the people in the club…and not in a fun way, in a, these people have issues way. Very bad vibes and a dangerous area with no concern for people’s safety, but expensive.
We won’t be going back again.

our vehicle got broken into and the window got smashed.. we tried talking to management to let them know and they didn’t care and dismissed us rudely as if this happens here all the time.. fun atmosphere but not worth the dangerous neighborhood :(

I've never had a bad time at Spotlit. The day time is chill and they have a nice coffee shop. In the summer, they open the garage door so you can hangout inside and do some work. The night time...it's just one of those places where you're not afraid to be yourself and be free. Good music and local artist.

If you want to dance like no one's watching this is the place to go! Good sound system, cool in the summer even with the garage door opened.
Drinks are reasonably priced and delicious.
Getting a drink is fast paced and chaotic but the bartenders have patience!
Bathrooms are always clean, the record section is nice to browse while partying. I've walked out with a couple newbies.
Just a cool place!

So I’ve been coming to spotlite for a few years and especially love their Laylit nights, the electric middleeastern vibes were just what I need in life but unfortunately I was there tonight and have to say I am disappointed in their selection of music. Go back to the authentic Arabic music vibes please or I won’t bother.

Awesome April

I was there for a baby shower. It was very nice.

I love this place. Want to drink an Albariño while you watch a DJ set?...and wear something you feel good in?...and poke through some vinyl/ maybe purchase a record? Bet. Parking is free, too.

Last night, on my birthday, my car and those of five friends were broken into right outside the venue, with windows smashed and belongings stolen. Security saw the whole incident but was busy smoking weed in their car. The owner claimed they couldn’t do anything since the guards aren't armed, and that the police take a long time to respond. It raises the question: what's the point of having security if they can't protect our cars? Given the area’s reputation and the frequency of these incidents, I wonder why the owner doesn’t hire armed guards. It felt suspicious, as there was a lack of genuine concern from the staff. I left feeling uneasy, as if the club or security might be involved in some way. The owner didn't gather our information to follow up, nor did she suggest any measures to prevent this from happening again.
