The club opened on 3 May 2013 and included a one-way mirror enabling patrons in one of the £800-per-night private rooms to view into the hand-washing area of the women's toilets.

Reports about the mirrors made news in New Zealand, Australia, the United States, Qatar, and Portugal. On June 14 2013, Glasgow Licensing Board forced the club to close for seven days, to remove the one way mirror, and to provide equity training to staff. Police Scotland investigated complaints about the mirrors. In 2016, playwright Adura Onashile wrote the play Expensive Shit based on the events at the club. The play featured at the 70th Edinburgh Festival Fringe. On March 30 2022 the club announced it was closing. References
