Information about this former nightclub on the "Get Reading" website provides a somewhat chequered history. I quote "A nightclub in Reading town centre which closed after years of problems with drugs and violence... The club closed in September (2017) after losing its licence due to two major police incidents and drug problems. The club, which has also been known as Bar Mango, Zeus Bar and Club 20, had a history of problems with crime. One incident was a mass brawl in July (2017) last year where a man was slashed with what police say was a weapon. The final straw was an incident of mass disorder on in the early hours of Saturday, August 5, (2017) where St Mary's Butts had to be closed due to the trouble."
