Ive never been here before, because Im underage, but I live next door to all the fun! I know none of the staff or owners, but when I got locked out of my apartment(second floor) ALL keys inside, cars and everything, the owner and a few extra helpers were so nice and came to the rescue with a ladder and laughs. I cant wait to go after my 21st!

A great place to visit. Nice customersBartenders are friendly. Tuesday nights are my favorite. Not to crowded, free diner with drink purchase and music isnt to loud. They have great Drag shows on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

While sometimes no longer fully thought of as a gay bar, the truth is, any establishment that continues the tradition of offering a free buffet on holidays is a TRUE gay bar. There was a time when gay men and women looked out for each other ... cared for each other ... and those that werent accepted by their families had someplace to go on the holidays ... the bar. While things are more accepted these days, it is nice to see a place that continues the tradition. If only we could all continue to look out for each other ... care for each other ... rather than being, all too often, so catty and superficial. The plague years taught us to be humble. It seems our liberty has made us complacent. Oh, the lessons weve forgotten ... oh, the lessons we are doomed to repeat. Alas, optimism and hope can be found in places like this. A gay bar is a place anyone can go to ... and be whoever they are ... and whoever that is, they will be accepted and loved. Lets keep it alive. Cheers.

As a straight guy at a gay bar (my cousin had me come down) I had a blast! Everyone there is nice and respectful and its really just a place to have fun, if you are open minded and like to have fun gay, straight, pan, whatever your orientation this is an awesome place. ( to the other straight guys out there, there are some seriously hot straight chicks that frequent )

Just a dive bar that thinks its upscale. More than half of the drag queens are on drugs or are alcoholics, and the regulars are normally just as drug addled and crazy. Plus, you actually have to pay to see the show itself, $5 a person to be exact. Every time Ive gone the drinks have either been too strong or absolutely disgusting. The staff is rude and catty and the queens are very unprofessional, borderline dirty and do not care about personal boundaries. If you want to get hit on by a potential pedophile or black out drunk butch lesbian dressed like eminem that has yet to know what the phrase no thanks means, this place is for you.

All Ill say is its not my kind of place.... Very dive-like and it definitely felt like my group of friends were outsiders maybe because we didnt have face tattoos, wear onsie pajamas and none of the guys in our group took their shirt off. Pros: drinks were cheap, they were one of the few bars open after 2am and the people at the bar were friendly.

The show upstairs was fantastic, and the jello shots are great but the dance floor was sticky and cocktails were weak.
