    A gay bar classic. The decor is fresh the bartenders are sweet and the drinks are strong. Excellent drag shows and a fun lounge vibe with very forgiving lighting.

    A fun low profile neighborhood bar that has a great Happy Hour. Josh, one of the bartenders is very welcoming and friendly plus makes a perfect cosmo! What it may lack in decor it makes up for in comfort with no pretension. The low lighting creates a good vibe and we all look better in that kind of lighting!

    This place is so great, it's one of the last original gay pubs in Chelsea with that neighborhood feel. I used to live around the corner and loved stopping in here at the end of the week or happy hour to catch up with my friends..
