Splash Bar San Jose

Drank to honor my mothers memory who just passed, went to use the restroom, SJU exchange student raped me in the stall, left, then security took me out refusing to listen assuming I was wasted... Yeah. Thus I've never gone back. This place isn't worth all the problems it has what with security, very light pours on drinks, fighting, x rated activities on the dance floors... Don't go, find somewhere else. Renegades IS far better!

The club definitely has its highlights. The music is always poppin’, the space is big with a nice patio, plenty of seating, and even three different restrooms, which is a win on a busy night. Drinks can be a hit or miss depending on who’s behind the bar, but when they’re good, they’re really good. On the downside, there’s no designated smoking area, which is rough for people who need a quick step-out. Management also feels a bit greedy lately. The cover charge is steep, and they’re still charging the full $20 even at 1 AM. They used to cut it in half closer to closing, and honestly, when there’s no special event, the cover should be around $10. Overall, fun spot with great energy, but the pricing decisions are giving "we know you’ll pay anyway."

I’ve been going here ever since i moved to California 4 years ago, every time i visit San Jose is just a great time coming to splash . The only Reason why i lowered the Ratings is because recently they hired a new guy at the door & he’s been very rude & a little Racist. Ps I’m not very confrontational but this time it was just needed. He didn’t allow my friend in because he didn’t have an "American ID" .

Michael was such a jerk he made me walk in a straight line just not to let me into Splash I felt so disrespected bc I've been to this club so many times and I frankly felt discriminated by Michael and manager Jonathan. I feel like they were so unfair and they should be replaced by kinder and nicer people bc they didn't represent Splash at all and this was the 1st night I didn't feel welcomed by this club/bar!!! I hope these people get spoken to or fired bc Splash has always been my safe place but Jonathan and Michael ruined it for me. I hope they get their bad karma. If I was so incoherent how is it that I remembered their names and wrote this review right after Michael was a jerk? I saw Splash was hiring new people but you'd assume it would be fun or kinder people, but nope. Frankly from all the years I've gone to Splash (January 17, 2026) was the worst night of my life.

CHECK THEIR INSTA BEFORE COMING! Been here several times and had great experiences, but this Sunday night at 10:15pm they’re suddenly Cash only $25 cover when the last 2 Sundays I came at 11pm, there was NO cover! It’s usually only $15 - $20 cover Fridays & Saturdays. Had to go home cause I didn’t have that much cash on me and didn’t have my card on me. Edit: I went to their insta and apparently there was a drag royalty meet and greet that day at 9pm. Dunno if she was still there when I tried to get in as there was no signage or anything said to indicate it wasn’t just a regular Sunday "Wet n’ Wild" drag show. I get you had to charge cover to book the queen, but could you at least update your website to say CASH ONLY, it’s 2025 y’all please!

As of 04/17/21 This bar is Open...It's just picking up, they have still the distance and mask restrictions. If you go around 7 is better you have more chances to get inside and stay there or else the have tables on the street. Good music. I started feeling kinda going back to normal.

They are discriminating against foreigners. And profiling people. We had one temporary ID in our group or someone who used over 30. And they told us that they needed a physical ID so we went and got it printed out and then they did not let us in. It was quite mean and rude and I would not recommend going to this place. They only let in young people.
