Honestly this bar is horrible. The staff are always rude. They chastise other customers, Ive seen it happen multiple times and even to me for no reason. You pay for your drinks throughout the night, then when you ask for a glass of water, you know - tap water, they tell you you have to buy water. Im just floored at how poor their basic customer service skills are. Theyve lost my friends ID. Horrible, everytime. Dont go, go to Charlies or Hydrate.

Its small, but it is one of the few non-dance clubs with an extended license. Nominally a lesbian bar, but when the other bars close it becomes very crowded with a very mixed crowd. Many of the staff from other bars come here when they are done, so it almost become like an industry night in the last hour they are open. Its a low key bar, with little in the way of decor. Very bare bones.

the bartender rachel is incredible, the community in there is so welcoming and friendly, everyone is so nice. yeah, it is a little bit small, but its also great that you have the option to sit near the front and sit to chat with friends or go to the dance floor in the back. this place has community and is very welcoming to men AND women-a rarity among some bars in boystown

This bar was an unexpected dive amongst the boystown gay bars. Before 2am its pretty empty and calm, but quickly fills up once the other bars in the area begin shutting down. The staff may not be the friendliest in the world, but they get the job done. I reserve this spot for nights I dont plan to go home prior to 4am.

This lesbian and gay bar is one of the more tame in the area. The environment in fun and music is good 90s 80s dance but its not crazy loud and super crowded like some of the others. Drinks are affordable and the bartender is very chill. Note that this place is cash only.

This club looked like a small rent-a-wharehoue, the drinks were super overpriced, the bartender hardly made any contact with new comers so I hardly felt welcome. Im sure there are better gay clubs in the area but this was a really bad first time experience

Always a good time, especially late at night. It doesnt try to be anything that it isnt, but generally the crowd is always down to have a great time. Its the place to be if you want to make some random friends for the night, and the bartenders are awesome.

Small bar, the crowd was mixed. The bartenders were really nice and friendly. A great dive bar to grab a couple of drinks. FYI, cash only bar.
