The bartender ignored one end of the bar. Seriously bad service. Was at the bar for over 30 mins then left it was funny after a while since it was so ridiculous. The couple to the right of me stayed they are going to text me when they get served it is now 50 mins no text. It wasn't as if it was not clear as to who arrived at the bar 1st or that the ones who just walked in and got served were regulars. Just pure incompetence and laziness by bartender. Went across street got a beer in 30 seconds on this wonderful Friday evening.

Completely amazing vibe. The music will get you pumped up and the crowd is lovely. Try to go during Daytime Realness!

The bathroom is a disaster. Real health Hazard. Bartenders are average. They'll treat you right if they're in a good mood or if you overtip them. Woman at the door was rude and bossy. There are way better lgbt places to spend your money, for real.

Large back patio is still festive during the pandemic. Drinks are cheap with a mix of cocktails, beer and wine. One of my favorite places to hang out after a good dinner.

Not unless there's a show ... And most of them are free.

If though they are grilling burgers and hotdogs outside, then that is cash only!

Second and fourth Sundays of each month, they have live salsa bands from 4-8 pm. I don’t know if they play salsa other days/nights.
