About Green Lantern

Green Lantern is a longtime favorite bar in DC that offers a vibrant dance club atmosphere. The music can be too loud in the bar area, making it hard to talk. Despite this, the bartenders are friendly, and the drinks are good with even pours. Some reviews highlight a welcoming environment and a fun vibe, especially on nights when the bar is lively. The Green Lantern often features karaoke, dance parties, and attracts a diverse crowd, making it a popular spot for celebrations and events. Some visitors appreciate the chill atmosphere during the late afternoon, while others enjoy the lively energy at night. The bar gives off an old school 70/80/90 gay bar vibe. This place is still a good time, true to its roots back when it was a queer jazz joint. The Green Lantern is always a fun place to go and hang out. It's always crowded and it's always a good looking crowd. The downstairs bar is very relaxed with friendly bartenders and even a popcorn machine. The upstairs bar and dance floor are often full of fun people. Leather nights are very fun to attend.

What an experience! That is all

Great old school experience at this bar on a Thursday night.! Arrive late, after 10pm.

A solid gay bar for men.
Downstairs they play appropriate/good music & videos; drinks are strong and reasonably priced; bartenders are hardworking and nice to look at.
Clientele is mostly men (thank god); various ages/demographics make for a nice mix and some potential hook ups.

Upstairs can be hit or miss music wise. A nice space for dancing, good air conditioning and again a solid bar/drink experience.
Restrooms with working stall doors and fairly clean are much...read full review
