Jukebox was paused. Was told if I tipped well they'd play me a song through their phone. Bouncer told me I couldn't bring water outside while she was drinking a White claw

This bartender (pictured) is absolutely trashy and a piss poor crew member.

Walked into this dead bar with my friend (black females) before another patron, bartender left from behind the bar, came back and chose to service the person that walked in before us (a white gentleman). The bartender had a poor attitude and would not meet us where we’re at, near the end of the bar where there was space for us to stand and place our order. In the 45 seconds we were in there I’ve never gotten so pissed off so quickly before.

Realistically their drinks are hit or miss and not that great. All the bartenders there lack consistency across the board when it comes to making simple cocktails.

Every bartender is chill, good music, great drinks, lovely patio space! Open in the afternoon so I have somewhere to chill and have a drink outside, open late nights so I can dance, sing, and party. Pool table and darts as a bonus. A staple on Lark street for sure!

Extremely overpriced!!!! The drinks were weak and very expensive! Sad that greedy owners push customers away. This was an amazing place year's ago. Sad

Safe place. You tell what you need and don't worry. It doesn't matter who you or the servers are. You are safe. This is the best spot I found for literally no questions asked, this is the, if you need something this is where you need, you go, I have ever found. The owners should be proud of the environment of safety that there is here

Oh Bar has gone increasingly downhill over the years. I’m not sure at what point exactly it stopped being a gay bar but it’s not anymore. The owner from what I’ve heard and it’s obvious from how the business appears, doesn’t care about the Albany queer community at all. If anything they pander to it and appropriate the culture, without doing any real service to local Albany queer people. If you call yourself a gay bar it should feel like a safe space. I don’t feel safe or welcomed whenever I come here. The demographic is majority straight cisgender people now. They rarely have queer events and never host drag shows. The bartenders are often rude unless you’re a regular. How can you still call yourselves a gay bar when you no longer have any of the qualities of one? Aside from pride flags and rainbows which hang with no real action or accountability behind them. After hearing that a gay person was physically assaulted by the bouncer to the point they needed to be hospitalized, and the bouncer wasn’t fired, I will never be returning. And the bar surely will not be missed.
