“The taquitos are quite good. And the home made salsas are fab. You need to try both! But the tomatillo avocado was my favorite. The drinks were nice and they have a nice local craft beer selection. The piña poblano was spicy and the draft margarita was delicious.“

“I never believed my life will change in such a manner. I saw a review on Facebook about Mrs Craig Vanessa trading skills and before then I have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because I think I was so wise and never want to be cheated but when I contacted Mrs. Craig Vanessa, she explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit I can make within a week I was convinced to give a trial and risked to invest $1,000 and I made a withdrawal profit of $9,000 within a week. I am so happy that I trusted her and she didn't fail me. You can reach her through WhatsApp via her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

Dorothy Gay Bar • $
2500 W Chicago Ave, Chicago

“Super cute bar with really nice bartenders and a very nice bouncer out front that helped me and my friend find the place when we passed by it (it’s easy to miss). I don’t know if it was busy or I’m just easily ignored but it can take a minute to get drinks. Any slight annoyances were totally worth it for the awesome music and comforting environment! Overall 5/5 I’m in love with the place ?“

Frozen Margarita

“My very first time experiencing gay culture and I have to say I was very relaxed the moment I walked into the doors. It was super loud but that’s expected lol. After a few drinks I busted a few moves on the dance floor. Also I liked how many different areas they guys had in the club, very diverse. 10/10 would recommend. Servers and staff are great. Tip them appropriately. Slay“

“Very cute little spot for a neighborhood bar. My wife and I came in on a rainy Wednesday to just grab a quick drink and found out everyone was watching jeopardy and playing along. Mickey the bartender was super nice and attentive. I was excited to try the Pannini by Ian but I found out he got covid and couldn't make it, I wish him a speedy recovery!Highly recommend this place as a chill place to grab a drink.“

Beer Flights

“This is a great spot to relax with a drink and play some video games. Replay is a bit smaller than most of the arcade/bar establishments I have visited, but that's OK. You get a much cozier, friendly vibe here. All the games are also set for free play. The bartender was great, full bar, large rotating craft beer selection, a dozen arcade machines, and 2 pinball machines. They do have a nice large patio area out back for when the weather is nice. I can't think of a better way to unwind - craft beer and video games. Now, who will challenge me to a game of Frogger?“

“Roscoe's is iconic and someplace my partner and I have always wanted to go. The food was incredible, the service was phenomenal (shout out to Hara, my apologies if I spelled it wrong and to Shawn who is a superstar), and the atmosphere was great. We went during a RPDR Viewing Party so it was loud in the dining area, but it ensured you could hear the show, which we appreciated. The Viewing Party was amazing to see in person; Naysha Lopez, Batty Davis, and Kara Mel D'Ville were hysterical hosts, Q and Loosey were the special guests and were funny, vulnerable, and honest. The Friday Night Lights drag show afterwards was amazing! The queens of Roscoe's Chicago are top-notch and the entire is experience is something everyone should treat themselves to!“

The North End Gay Bar • $
3733 N Halsted St, Chicago

“My girlfriend and I frequent this bar during the week to grab a drink and play pool. Bartenders are incredibly friendly and attentive. The vibe at this place is top tier. One half is quieter with a pool table and some older folk who want to enjoy a drink and chat, while the other half is much livelier with a younger crowd playing darts and pool. 10/10 experience“
