Top of Beardsleys is one of the longest
running weekly dances in the Bay Area, if not the longest. DJ Phil
Trau plays mostly R&B, what I would term "classic WCS". The dance
crowd is primarily an older crowd. Phil will take requests and
occasionally play more modern music. There is a bar at the
establishment, meaning attendee SHOULD BE 21 and over. Since there is
a bar, free refreshment is not provided. For an older establishment,
the floor is in excellent condition. There are plenty of seating,
along with some folding tables. Ventilation is good as I've never
felt hot there; I guess the A/C works really well. The neighborhood
is OK. There are plenty of street parking, in front and behind the
establishment. If you're looking for a place to eat, this venue is
ideally situated. Beardsley's is on the edge of downtown San Mateo,
where there are plenty in downtown San Mateo, so eat before
you get there. |
