The lesbian parade on the Friday of Pride weekend is what brought us here, to hopefully grab a birds eye view of it while having a few beers. Believe it or not, it worked! We ended up with choice seats at the corner outdoor lanai.

ATMOSPHERE:
The bar takes up the entire second floor of a two level building at the corner of 16th & Market, right where the parade passes. Plus, they have a cool but skinny outdoor lanai with a railing counter and bar stools that is excellent for people-watching. The inside has some good square footage but it still can get cramped.

The crowd was a mix. We met all walks of life while here, including a gay-friendly drunk straight girl traveling nurse that wanted to take my gay friend and possibly me home. :-O Thanks anyway, sister lol.

They have a full service bar and great music.

SERVICE:
Though I didn't experience it because all of my beers were purchased for me, my friends returned fairly quickly from the bar, so service was fast despite the busyness.

FUN TIP:
Something that kept me entertained were the ding dong drivers at the intersection of Market, Noe & 16th. Some drivers on Noe that were headed north would stop for some reason in the middle of Market, thus blocking traffic headed east on Market. HONNNNNNNK and me SMH all afternoon long, lol!

OVERALL:
Cool vibe & views, great prices, free street entertainment.

RECOMMENDED!! It was the first bar I went to as soon as I arrived in the Castro neighborhood. A well-deserved mention goes to the waiter, Aymanuel? who recommended clubs for me that night. Their peach margaritas are a delight. Very nice and friendly atmosphere. It is recommended to meet new people. I met a few there. I will return and recommend it to my friends.

Went as a last stop on Halloween after a couple of bars before cutting the night short for a flight. Honestly wanted to stay longer as there was a nice vibe and having a good dinner.
