The only alternative bar in Phoenix that has a black owner. The atmosphere is so friendly cozy and fun. They have so many themed nights I will be back

Sat for 10 minutes at the bar without service, then someone sits down next to me and they get a drink right away

This place is awesome! Eclectic decor and very friendly staff and owners... makes you wanna come back. This is the oldest gay bar in AZ but it's really an everyone bar, so welcoming! No food but great drinks and snacks if you wish. There's different activities going on every night. Check them out on Facebook or Instagram

Parking: If the lot is full you can park at the post office across the street.

Wheelchair accessibility: Both entrances, bar and the restroom is wheelchair accessible.

It’s was cool place, there was some kind of valentines event going on, but it seemed unorganized and no one knew what was going on. Bathrooms are insanely weird. There’s a toilet where you go number 2, and right in front of it was the sink where everyone washes their hands. This is all in the same “hallway” that the urinals are which form an “J” shaped. The end being the toilet and the corner being the sink.Staff was friendly at first. Zack, whom had a similar hairstyle to the cutie ASAP Rocky seemed like a cool person, friendly to everyone and laughing, but whenever I would ask for another round, he wouldn’t even speak to me. Just a nod and a side eye. I didn’t say much to him besides my drink order and where the bathroom was. After the second and third drink, I had to build up courage each time to raise my hand for another drink. I can’t say if he was in a bad mood or not since he was laughing and joking with everyone, new or regular. But he just seemed to have a chip on his shoulder towards me for some reason.Overall, I probably won’t go again unless it’s with friends so they can order. Or probably whenever Zack is not working. He’s seems like a nice guy, but my interaction with him wasn’t the most welcoming. Went here trusting they weren’t gonna be like the other popular gay bars with stuck up bartenders and people, but damn. This made me just wanna stay inside.

This used to be the local hang out. I’ve moved away and don’t frequent this place like I used to. …..now I visit when in town on business.Kudos to the new owner for updating a few things but to be honest I really miss the old vibe and the old bartenders.Every holiday there were decorations galore… does this no longer happen?I will return in the future but really did prefer the eclectic dive bar atmosphere it once had.

Friendliest gay bar, and bar period, I’ve visited in the valley. There are plenty of very cliquey establishments around, so it’s refreshing to find smiling, welcoming faces.. on BOTH sides of the bar. I have found my spot ? Zach, behind the bar, is top-notch ??
