The atmosphere was great , The owners were so sweet and kind such a lovely couple btw. The food was good. The dj got the party going around 12. The drinks were good and the staff was friendly . What else can you ask for ?

My partner and I stopped by around 10:30 to get a drink, we asked what the cover was and the response was “it depends on where you’re from.” People from the area get in at no charge and out of town people pay a cover. $8 cover per person when they close at 11. They should be happy that people are stopping by to buy overpriced drinks. Great business strategy you have by sticking it to tourists with a cover charge, a more appropriate response would’ve been “there’s a $8 cover charge vs singling out visitors. I guess no money is better than some right? Visitors to the area, find another bar that values your business!

So much fun! Stopped here on a whim oneFriday night and was glad I did. Cover charge was reasonable at $10, the food was decent and the drinks were moderately priced. I loved the drag show! Very entertaining and a nice variety of performers. I would go back here next time Im in the area. Only downside is that they allow smoking indoors which sucks for non-smokers.

Wish we could leave 0 stars. Took too long to get a drink. No atmosphere. Overpriced drinks. Admission was too expensive. Me and my boyfriend travel a lot this has to be the worst gay bar we have ever encountered together next time we’ll just drink at the hotel.

Went there last night. One of two gay bars in Myrtle beach. The music started out kinda bad but got better over the next few hours. I dont drink often (partly because Ive never found anything I liked drinking much), but the bartender was nice and gave me a simple drink he thought Id enjoy. The local leather group/club had a small charity event ,which was fun to watch. The dance floor was pretty much empty until 1AM or so, and even then not a lot of people. They have a dartboard and two pool tables, which people played throughout the night (bring a few quarters). I had a really good time. Im sure Ill come by the next time I visit Myrtle beach.

Came here in December and it was all decorated for Christmas. Absolutely gorgeous...there had to be over 30 Christmas trees. Drinks were great and bartenders were the best. Loved the music. We had so much fun. Definitely coming back!

Great place to party! Great place to visit especially here from out of town! Can’t ask for better staff, and not to mention the owner Ken who has over the years has provided a safe and friendly establishment to come to. Always professional and courteous to everyone, lots of props to him and his staff!!!

I’ve been to Pulse three times when visiting Myrtle Beach.Where I’m from the gay clubs get packed.The DJ at Pulse is absolutely awful. A good DJ will mix one song into another not play one to the end and start another. Check out DJ Richie Rich he is amazing.I always order the same drink wherever I go.Sadly the only good one I had here was during happy hour with Jon. The others have been awful. I think it’s time for some changes here before it fails.Just some observations but worthwhile I think.A ban on smoking inside would be a big plus !!!

Local LGBT and all inclusive bar and night club with great staff and entertainment. We always have a great time at Pulse Ultra Club and recommend you check it out while your here on vacation or as a local anytime. Judgement free and drama free place. Food is awesome as well and the owner and staff go all out to make it a great time!

Went here on a Sunday night looking for somewhere to relax and it was great. My wife and I were looking for a place to go drink a bit and since we are from the upstate we didnt really know anywhere. We saw this place and stopped in. It wasnt crowded since it was a Sunday but everyone was very friendly and nice. We stayed for almost 3 hours and my wife sang and we both had a good time. It was clean, well lit, very well decorated, and I would definitely go again. The karaoke was fun and everyone had a good time singing. My only real complaint is smoking inside which neither of us do and could definitely put some people off, deservedly so. Would recommend anyways.

Used to visit frequently. Have since moved away and wish the gay clubs at home were a bit nicer like this one. Have had my up and down moments while visiting here but overall a great experience. Definitely one of the best in the Carolinas.

Went for a bachelorette party and honestly I loved it! While I’m not gay, it was still a great time! Everyone was SO nice, super respectful, the music was good, and so were the drinks! I’m so used to college bars, so coming here was SO refreshing! I would love to come back when I’m in town again!

I am a CD from NC and visit this club 5 or 6 times a year. ALL of the staff are great, particularly Julie, John, David and Ken. I have never been to a club that cares so much about the customers, even to the point of making sure I get to my hotel safely when I have enough to drink! I will be a loyal patron forever! Toni

My wife and I were looking for a place that would be laid back and different. This place did not disappoint. They had a drag show and it was amazing. The ladies were beautiful and one of them I would have sworn was Whoopi from back in the day. Could not tell them apart. We met quite a few people and everyone was nice and nobody was pushy. We even got a free shot because we were virgins. We will be back again and again. We cant wait to check it out when they are busy.

First time Myrtle Beach, and was looking for a good gay bar. This place deff lived by its name as being the #1 gay bar. Great bartenders, great music, great lighting, great layout, and dance floor. Only thing is the smoking. Not my thing but I get it but it’s the reason why I gave it four stars.Overall I would deff come back!

Very friendly lgbt club. As a transwoman, theyre very nice here. The bar staff is nice and knowledgeable. The music is good and the shows are fun. They have plenty of themed nights. My only real complaint is that it smells like cigarettes so do yourself a favor and dont wear clothes you like, but defiantly still come.

Nicest gay bar in Myrtle Beach. Friendly crowd and reasonable prices. They also have a food menu. The drag shows are very popular. I attended the 7pm Friday show, and there was a sizeable crowd.

Worst service in the world and poor service at the front door the guy had no customer service and inside the complete club has smoke everywhere unable to breathe and the music sucked not worth going at all even they refill the alcohol bottles that they were using instead of opening a new one

Review №53

Would be 4 or maybe even 5 stars if I didnt smell like an ash tray after attending. I had to leave after about 90 minutes because I couldnt breathe the heavy smoke-filled air.Delicious, inexpensive strong enough drinks, nice variety of things to do. Locals and tourists were about 50/50 of the attendance.

Yeah this place is embarrassing. They only play songs mixed to house music. Which means, there is only like 3 people on the dance floor at a time. Yikes.. Better look else where for a fun gay ol time in myrtle beach.

Cons: Ever since the bar relocated to this new location its been getting worse. The DJ continues to play the same music over and over again. Dont try and request a song because the DJ will refuse to play it. The bar is wayyyy to smokey! Heck, I could get past the smoke if the DJ played better music.Pros: Julie is an awesome bartender :)

I have been to a lot of bars and Julie is by far the best bartender I have ever had. Ive never been there before and I ordered one drink and after that I would approach the bar and she would hand me another drink. Thats incredible to be able to remember someones drink order, name, and tab with that many people in the bar. Best bartending experience.

The bar is really big, modern, and eligent. However, that does not make up for the fact of the horrible customer service. The bar staff was extremely rude. I attended the club August 24th and I have never in my life been more offended by the bar attendant. I will never be back.

As a local to the area of Myrtle Beach I see why some have stopped coming to this bar. The smoke is overwhelming. I havent been to the bar in a while but Im pretty sure the Dj played the same music. Its a shame because this bar has potential.

Review №93

Went to this club twice within four days. The music is super repetitive and when you request songs to be played youre given an excuse everytime as to why it cannot be played. The bar staff was great, enjoyed the drag shows, but unfortunately besides drinking and shooting pool thats about it. I dont recommend this bar if you wanna go out and dance.

Review №99

An okay bar/club. It is pretty slow off-season so youll most likely encounter the fellas you see on your Grindr grid. Take that as you will. As others have reviewed, the smoking indoors is a big turnoff. You will leave smelling like an ashtray. Do not sniff your clothes the next day as you will probably gag.The biggest letdown is the music and the empty dance floor. I understand EDM is a current trend, but the music is usually too fast and/or too obscure to get into. It feels like Ultra Music Festival; you really have to be on something to really enjoy it. I would enjoy a gayer soundtrack (britney, madonna, kylie, katy, rupaul, etc..). The drag shows are pretty tame but always entertaining.On a positive note, the bar staff has always been friendly and great (in my experience), and the drinks are almost always strong if you know who to go to. People from large cities will appreciate the economically priced beverages.
