Best club ever! I had a lot of fun with my friends. Music and the dance floor were amazing. The dark room is 100% highly recommend. Thank you for the great time. I just put 4 stars because a bald and old bartender guy that was fixing my drink had a bad behavior (Rude and screamed me) I wish remember his name.

The Heretic!! Not much to say other than its always a fun time. Unlike other places theres a good variety of guys. Favourite nights are the DILF/JOCK parties where they offer a clothes check...my first time at CHUNK...it was cute..

This fun and lively atmosphere was so inviting. I went for dance night on Thursday nights where they teach you a dance from 8-9pm. It was my first time in a dance class and everyone was so nice and willing to help! Afterwards was open floor which was so fun! If you like to line dance or two step definitely go to the Heretic, you’ll fit right in!

Ive been here a few times for themed nights where it wasnt specifically a gay event. The staff is always professional and chill, the club itself is pretty clean for a club. I have yet to have a bad experience here. There are usually the clubs regular patrons there, but theyve never given us any smoke about our presence. Def recommend!

Gay bar that has monthly goth events. Its small but nice. Staff is friendly, but their drink selection is limited. Bartenders pour heavy, so watch out. Theyre an outdoor smoking patio that looks recently refinished. If you like privacy when you pee, you wont get it here!

It was fun, it was big, its totally out of my realm of familiarity.!!! I came down for bear pride with some friends and as someone whose only been in Nashville clubs this place was amazing. I didnt know there was a leather store inside, that was a neat surprise. I especially liked the dark room, it was discreet and adventurous but not out of the way. And the restrooms were numerous, thank God. Next time Im down in Atlanta, definitely coming back to this place.

What a fun night! We visited for a theme party and had a blast. We brought a group of six and the bartenders are no beginners. They were whipping up drinks faster than we could get the names out. The cover was only $10 for the night, the dancefloor was huge, there were two cool bars, and a big smoking deck. It didnt feel crowded at any point and the staff was awesome at keeping it light and lively. Well be back soon!

The Heretic is super nice inside. Wood everything and a leather shop when you enter. It gives off a rustic look and smell. Everyone is always friendly and the servers are always spot on. They have events weekly. I definitely recommend this bar. God bless.

Ive been here a few times with my girlfriend for line dancing and two stepping country nights on Thursday. Cool spot and the drinks are cheap and you can get them pretty fast. Wish they did more line dancing and less two stepping but other than night not a bad place to check out for country dancing every now and then!

Interesting place, but Ive been there 3 time and had to pay $20 because it was charity event, a special weekend, and the 3rd time, they blocked off most of the bar for a themed event. If u wanted to go past the 1st bar, you would have to pay. Dont need to go back.

This bar has brought so much joy to my life! I go on country night, mostly. Great spot, good music, and one of the only places left in Atl to line dance, two step, swing and more! The people who work here are wonderful!! My favorite week night spot.

My coworker had told me about staying night on Wednesday Wednesday of last nights my first time. the security guard was at the door he waited until I came in the building ask me for my ID I feel really do Im 45 years old he replied that was nasty attitude I still got to check your ID. Ill let him check my ID went and hung out at the bar got a sweet dreams I noticed he left almost 40 people in and he didnt stop not one of those and ask them for id I was there to do it for 15 minutes because I didnt like the vibe of the security Ill give you A5 if the security was not being judgemental on picking who hme ask for ID. told my friend that recommended your Club to me about what happened last night. He reply yes the secuity guy do that only to us black and he can be a jack asssometimes
