Grind House

I joined Grindhouse a year ago and began training promptly with Nathan Gibbs, who I want to give a shoutout to here. Nathan’s expertise in kinesthetics was integral in healing a chronic knee injury I had, and has since been instrumental in me building a significant amount of functional muscle over the past year. Nathan is extremely knowledgeable, dedicated to his client and training, and flexible to what your goals and needs are. On top of all that, he’s a great vibe to train with. Grindhouse has a great layout, great staff, a wide variety of machines to use, and a positive atmosphere. In my opinion it is the best bang for your buck in the Williamsburg neighbourhood. As someone who usually doesn’t like going to the gym, going to Grindhouse makes it enjoyable and training with Nathan has made it worthwhile.

I wanted to love this gym but I guess not. I tried their free 3 days trial. The gym itself is packed with lots of equipment, plenty of space to work out and even a sauna ( the best part). During my trial (which I only attended 2/3 sessions), the staff gave an unwelcoming vibe and their maintenance team is great….but it would’ve been better to not clean right under me while I worked out lol(dangerous). I think the vibe in here did it for me the most (maybe I’m projecting who knows) but absolute fitness in Grand street gives a warm and welcoming vibe by their staff and even gym members. Will definitely be joining them instead :/

Terrible experience while cancelling membership. I told them 25 days before that I want to stop my membership. But apparently according to their "terms and conditions" it has to be cancelled 30 days before. And they proceeded to charge me for an extra month - even though I'm moving and I won't use the gym for that month at all. 25 days is enough of a notice - they just saw a chance to get another 1 month of gym fee out of me and they took it. You can do better Grind House!

Memberships are a little pricey, but still an Amazing gym filled with awesome equipment, serious gym goers, and friendly staff. Locker rooms/restroom/showers are nice & while small (1 person), they also have a little sauna room/nook that’s pretty cool.

Love this gym - favorite gym I’ve ever worked out at. And Danielle is the best - excited to train with her. Was super easy to sign up, fees are fair, and their cancellation policy is very reasonable and simple to do.
