CITY centre club Dogma has had its licence suspended following a stabbing.
The police asked the city council to review the Byard Lane venue after the attack which happened on June 22. At the time three men were arrested but were later bailed.
Staff at neighbouring clothes shop Reiss are pleased the bar has been closed.
Supervisor Adam Hutson said: "I am not really surprised it has been shut down at all.
"We have wanted it closed for a few years now because I think it looks terrible and we have had a lot of trouble.
"We have had our windows put through and on a weekend there is usually sick everywhere.
"It is just a pain for all the other businesses down here."
Following the stabbing some people took to the club's Facebook page to provide messages of support.
Rosanna Williamson from Nottingham said: "Dogma is without doubt the best bar in Nottingham.
"This incident is not and by no means a reflection on the bar, but an extremely small minority granted entry that night.
"I wish the victim a speedy and full recovery."
Dogma's future will be decided at licensing panel held at Nottingham City council on Monday, July 21, at 10.30am.
A council spokesman said: "Following the recent stabbing incident at Dogma, the police asked us to urgently review the licence for the premises as being associated with serious crime and disorder, and the decision was taken to suspend its licence.
"This decision will be reviewed by a Special Licensing Panel on when further information will be provided by the police and options for further action will be considered, including the option of fully revoking the premises licence."
The Nottingham Post was unable to contact the management of the bar.
However, a message stuck on the door of the club said: "Due to unforeseen circumstances we are unfortunately closed for today.
"We apologise for any inconvenience caused."
A second notice is also stuck on the window about the licence review.
A Nottinghamshire Police spokesman said: "The three arrested men are still on bail and the victim is now at home recovering.
"The club has been shut down due to the serious nature of the incident.
"The matter will go before a Nottingham City Council licensing panel on July 21."
