I went to a few gay bars, and by far this was the bt place to dance and the mic was the bt here, varied, and not too much dance mic like you got your head bangg a fish bowl!Super efficient, iendly bar staff, wh buy one get one ee drks before 10pm if I remember rrectly. If you have gay iends like me, brg them there, you will have the bt night out!The guys dance on the bars, there's no hassle, s all fun, good tim!
There are plenty of gay bars up and down 9th ave and there's no reason to spend money at a place that will treat you like total trash, threaten you, and be unnecsarily belligerent and make you feel unsafe jt bee they're on some kd of power trip.Wrten January 9, 2023This review is the subjective opn of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
