Good drinks but a smoky atmosphere. Place needs some fresh air or an open patio. Quiet corner bar.

What used to be a five-star place, and I used to go here for decades because it was such a nice place to go, has now become a place where you don't want to go. Customers buy the bartenders drinks and manipulate the bartenders for favors. Customers who can't even afford to buy themselves a second drink we'll go around asking others to buy them drinks. There was one customer that used to go in there and used to steal the tips on the bartender's and that they had to put a sign up and most recently the head bartender had effect and say was going to take the Jukebox and rip it off the wall. The main problem is that the owner Patty used to go in there and now because she's older and feeble, she doesn't visit the bar as often and so a lot of things are going on there that eventually will probably end up closing the Pro Shop completely. I won't go there anymore and I was a regular for many many years.

The BEST kept secret in Clearwater. Always phenomenal service, super clean & affordable. I have been going there for many years and will be back. Safest place for a straight lady to go have a beverage solo, or with friends.

I waited as a high school student, marching in the band to feel comfortable to walk in and be accepted as a gay man in my community where I grew up. I have been to Pro Shop previously on Valentine's Day a few years ago. My ex was part of a game he ruined that first time in going. Every time I have went recently this year if it's all consisted of 2025, I have been offended and disappointed in my being there, except one afternoon the bartender let me put Freeform on instead of sports. I have had people I know come in while I was there, some made fun of me, some altered their appearance, and it was really not what I thought would be the standard at a gay bar. One of the bartenders has been quite rude and unprofessional. I tried to get his attention to get a drink before happy hour ended, I told him about my drink, and went outside to smoke flower, as was previously told to do. The bartender came outside telling me his shift was over and my tab was $9.75. He didn't offer to transfer the tab, and management didn't have a policy of not inconveniencing me and transferring the tab to the next shift bartender. I put $20 on the bar, and he took a tip out for himself, instead of waiting for me to tip him what I would have tipped him. I didn't want to tip him $3, but he made that decision for me, instead of an envelope for him when he worked next, a service standard in most places. I was also taunted with what I've helped my community in an issue having no addiction to it by staff and patrons as well. I hoped it'd be a gay bar since many have closed and someone stole my phone where I can't use Grindr, Scruff, and such, and being a socially awkward gay man, relied upon them instead of satiating needs like before they were available. Really disappointed at the lack of community, the lack of helping, and the lack of hospitality.

Please file a Better Business Bureau Report and Complaint for me.

Great local bar. Friendly and attentive bartenders. Make excellent drinks. As a smoker, love the ability to smoke inside, but understand everyone does not enjoy that part. Will definitely be a regular hang out for me!!

Not much on food here, but cheap drinks and I think the oldest gay bar still in operation in the county to be honest or feels like it anyway.

Old ashtray dive bar. The smell was absolutely awful. I've been in smoking bars before but this was disgusting. We ordered drinks but couldn't stay to drink them. Also as another huge surprise they do not accept cards. Cash only. Glad one of us had cash on us. Has potential due to the location but it would need to be stripped to get that 40 plus yars of smoke out.
