A nice bar. A place where you can come, get drinks and hang out with friends. They have all standard bar drinks you can order. The atmosphere is very nice and comfy. The staff here are very friendly.

A great place to attend drag performances.

For the most part, the venue is nice, but certain areas, depending on where you stand, the music can be overwhelmingly loud to the point you feel it in your chest.

The vibe was good overall.

Only been here a handful of times and I try to give it a chance but every single time it’s a mood killer. The exact same regulars make up 75% of the crowd, there’s just no variety, the majority of college kids that just got into town seem to avoid it all together, and it is very cliquey to the point that if you’re trying to be friendly and socialize with the regulars you see every time they will give you side eye and not even try to have a legit conversation with you. It feels like you have to know someone they are friends with in order for them to want to talk to you. I’ve never had this be an issue anywhere else downtown except this place. Service is decent for the most part but you would probably have a better and friendlier experience elsewhere for the same price.

Iconic. Not just a bar – a beloved pillar of the community.

Worst bar ever. So unfriendly, bar tender rude. Kicked my friend out for no reason. They have a sign in there that they should take down. It’s says “gay bars are where those who have lost their religion…religion lost them… no family” etc. my friend has lost so much this year and this is the one place we thought he would actually be treated with kindness and respect and it was the exact opposite! Don’t go here. Not one person said hi, bar tender served me a drink and not my friend. It was like she was racist. NOT AS WELCOMING AS THEY SHOULD BE. Our first experience in a gay bar, and it will be the last!

Great shows and the trivia/karaoke nights are always fun as well. I’ve never had a bad experience in the two years I’ve been going there. Bartenders and bouncers have always been kind and respectful.

If I could give zero stars I would. I came from out of town with a bud in support of someone there. Paid a cover to get in. Received no service, bar tender was extremely rude. Told the bouncer and bar tender signaled that I couldn’t come back in. So I got upset. Not a very welcoming place and would never go back!

They physically pushed me with their chests out the door.

The only gay bar in town but it is friendly and welcoming to everyone. Clean place with strong drinks and cheap beer. Come on Thursday for bingo and karaoke you won’t regret it. Or join for a drag show hosted by world famous Sharon Share-a-like.
