70's night downstairs brings out the old school nostalgia of the glory days of gay bar hopping. The piano bar upstairs draws an eclectic group people singing along to a variety of show-tunes.

Piano Bar on main floor and more quiet. Downstairs DJ spins tunes that will have you dancing while cruising the diverse selection of men of various ages and culture. Note....this is a Gay Bar.

Always great to go to. Hot bartenders, a fun crowd whether there's 5 people or 30. Drag shows are hit-or-miss. Drinks are priced at what one would expect from the area. Nice pours. Overall always a good experience.

Had a real great time there several years ago; people were friendly, and I love the decor. Tried it again recently; tried to get a drink and the stuck up bartender looked at me like I had tarantulas crawling on me or something. I never liked the downstairs section; too loud for me, I guess. Still, I'll give it another shot soon. Just gotta remember to keep the tarantulas at home, ha ha!

This bar is an institution that's been open a long time. Yay!! & Congrats!!

However, some of the longterm bar tenders here are very UNAPPROACHABLE, and I've been a patron for four years. They act a bit like you've entered into THEIR personal sacred domain, and you have to earn their attention. Like bitchy old flight attendants who have just served too many drinks, and everyone pisses them off in some way, even just by being there!

Especially this one guy. He always has something up his *ss. No matter who I bring into this bar with me, they always say, "Oh, HE has an attitude". And I'm a good tipper!!, so it can't be that!

Fortunately, the bar always has two bar tenders that kind of split the bar in two. So when Mr. B-face is working, I can usually avoid him.
