Great place for cocktails and good bar food. When the weather is nice there is an amazing rooftop patio.

A fun and welcoming place for lgbtqai+ folks. Always have fun when I come in, though folks who don't want any attention might struggle a tad. Drinks are strong, would recommend

What happened to this place??? Boring and you were forced to watch the drag show bc the upstairs was closed. The bartender was not friendly at all.

I can't believe how much fun I had here. The atmosphere of the people here is so positive. You feel safe to be yourself and don't have to worry about anyone judging you. Next time I'm back in Des Moines and looking for a fun night I'll definitely come back here. So much fun.

Went for a drag brunch for my birthday and was excited to see the new location but was a little disappointed. It needs some work, everything gave dive bar. Also the food at the brunch wasn't great, very basic and bland. The drinks weren't strong but assumed they wouldn't be too crazy with the bottomless deal. All this said the performers were phenomenal, I wish it wouldn't have been so crowded to see what they could really do but they worked the room for the small space and everyone seemed to have a good time. Matthew and Brandonna were my faves

drag shows every weekend, a fun place for LGBTQ. Not too many gay bars in Iowa and this is one of the best.

First time coming since they've changed locations I have to say it's nice and I love the upper little patio but I do miss the actual dance floor
