Gregory is truly a very friendly and attentive barman. He put on a Lady Gaga album for me when I asked. This really is my favourite gay bar in Williamsburg.

To the girl behind the food counter yesterday August 31st. If you gonna give me attitude for wanting a second hotdog, wear some gloves to lay out the cheese slices. After all
You really care for the free food right?
Lady letting people in seems entitled. I watched her start with someone who didn’t even want to go in which turned me off from going. Really bizarre atmosphere. Hope they figure it out

Disturbed by the behavior of a bouncer who was unnecessarily unkind. We live in the neighborhood and have been here countless times, we arrived with a group and one person threw a can away and the bouncer chose to target that as the reason we couldn’t come in. Fair enough to excuse the two people drinking from a can, UNTIL he insulted the physical appearance of another of our group in order to exclude the uninvolved parties. It felt targeted, unfair and extremely weird. Not to mention a very empty bar… On pride weekend….

Not a fan of cover for a bar like this. It doesnt deserve a cover imo. But it might make sense considering that the one bartender (this is a Friday mind you) took 10 minutes to make 3 drinks for the people in front of me. The inside is a bit too loud for me considering there's no place you can even moderately escape the noise.
I'm really glad the female security guard checking ID's threw out a creepy guy that was touching people without their consent--she is great. But when my friend and I were waiting for a cab the male security did not allow us to wait inside despite the fact that my friend has a cane and foot boot due to a recent surgery. It is illegal to deny accesibility and I'm very dissapointed because everything else was great. Dec 7 night/dec 8 morning. Security needs to be reminded that it is illegal to deny people with accesibility needs.
IYKYK - some of the best bartenders in queer williamsburg, and then some. Best drinks and a place that builds community!

It’s a nice bar but the bartenders can do better or even try, weekend is the worst especially after paying $10/$20 to Enter…They are very rude , for example they serve people they know and after you tip them thinking they’ll be nice enough to at least ask if u Okai or if u need another drink, They greedy for tip but show no respect. The atmosphere is beautiful, they have great dancers and good Music. Who ever the boss is they need to have a talk with their staffs. Imagine paying to get in a Bar for a drink and The bartenders are moving weird. I was ready to go off. But ofc you gotta respect the bartenders BS.

Lady taking cover said the back was packed, it wasn’t. They then closed the back 30 minutes later and most people left….

Great space and will definitely return
Fun bar - but despite both restrooms being labelled gender neutral, a bouncer sat by the doors told me I was only allowed in the ‘Gender neutral with urinal’ toilet, entirely defeating the point of having gender neutral restrooms at all. Disappointing for a queer space with lots of trans people.
That bar location is very good but rest of trash. Bad Music and Bartender, low class ambiance. Don't even try it.

Awesome
While I mostly stick to the gay bars in Hell’s Kitchen, this was a nice change of vibe and scenery. The outdoor area is really nice — despite patrons smoking out there even though there were signs saying not to smoke. Bartender seemed a bit annoyed at times with serving — unsure why.Drinks prices were great for NYC — low when compared to Manhattan.While the sneaker selections of the Williamsburg residents always perplex me…I’ll be back to this place for sure!
