Mercury@machinewerks is a private club for members and their visitors. It is located at 1009 E Union Street in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood.
Mercury @ Machinewerks features some of Seattle’s best Gothic/Industrial and electronic music DJs. It’s is a great place to dance or hang out with friends, relax, play pool and enjoy good conversation with interesting people
over cocktails!
All promotions now say “Liquor sales to members only.” That is the disclaimer the WSLCB requires us to put on all promotions. They want to make sure that the general public understands that we are a private club and do not
serve spirits to the public like non-private night clubs and bars do.
Your visitors will still be able to enjoy our hospitality, as long as they are invited,escorted and signed into our establishment by a member.
Members must show their membership cards and a valid ID upon entry.
If you do not have your membership card you will be asked to sign-in.
Members may bring up to three visitors.
The 3 person maximum is strictly enforced. Members must arrive with their visitors. If you do not, your visitor(s) will have to wait for you to arrive to be signed in. When signing in, you must PRINT your
real name as it appears on your legal ID.
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT – Do not visitor random strangers that you do not know into our establishment.
Please Dress Appropriately
Mercury @ Machinewerks has a dress code. Goth, industrial, fetish and formal attire is encurraged, though basic black is acceptable. Casual attire, jeans and clothing that does not adhere to the spirit of the community is
unacceptable.
Special dress codes may be enforced during certain nights or special events. These will be available on fliers and promotional announcements.
If you bring visitors who are new to the scene/culture, please make sure that they are dressed appropriately before coming in.
You can help make things a little easier by being prepared when you get to the club. Have your ID and membership card in hand when you get to the desk. Make sure your visitors have their IDs and cover ready. If you’ve got
a large group, members signing in visitors should come to the desk with the specific visitors they are taking responsibility for to sign them in (and please, have first/last name spellings worked out before you get to the desk
to sign in).
Do you have membership but lost/did not receive your card? This should help answer your questions.
If you have applied for your membership card and you have not yet received your card but nothing on your application info has changed, please continue to sign in at the front door when you visit. The sign
in book helps us identify folks who do not have cards so we can get those out to you.
If you have applied for your membership card and information has changed (address or legal name change), please fill out an update form at the front desk in addition to signing in at the front door when you
visit.
If you are a current member and have lost your card/your card is damaged beyond use but your information has not changed since receiving membership, please sign in at the front door until we can get your replacement
card out to you.
If you are a current member and you do not have your card and your information has changed, please fill out a membership update form at the front desk and continue to sign in until you get your card.
When you receive your card, please sign it and print your name on it to make it valid and then put it somewhere where you can access it easily (like your wallet). Laminating your card to protect it is not
only acceptable, it’s highly suggested. You are responsible for replacing your card in a timely manner if anything happens to it, or for notifying us if you do not receive one within 8-12 weeks after applying for membership.
