Summer Bar & Lounge Reviews
Very quaint, modern, and friendly space. welcoming and inclusive. the owner and staff are extremely relatable and sociable. they are a little off the beaten path but worth checking out. and they are starting to do more entertainment to draw folks in.
Summer Bar & Lounge is a bit of a hidden gem in the community. There's not many LGBTQ+ spaces around, but Summer really nails it on the easy, fun, and welcoming atmosphere. The drinks are affordable and the owner is friendly. The space is more usable than Port. It's a shame Summer doesn't get busier on weekends, but right now it's the perfect neighborhood bar.

Definitely an upscale hole in the wall bar. As part of a gay pride pub crawl, I enjoyed the bar. Super cute. Not big people friendly in the sense that it is very narrow. Liked the stage and small dance floor. Had instruments so I assume they have live music. Major plus. Cute back outdoor patio. Has a sidewalk patio. Also a plus. Didn't get 5 stars because it seemed unprepared for the pub crawl crowd.
