One of my favorite places to enjoy a night out! We travel nearly 2 hours to come here from western mass. I love the music, the vibes, the community. The block parties are amazing. I've visited for pride, new years, even on my wedding night!

Went last night for Latin night and had an encounter with a drunk creepy stalker he wouldn’t leave my friend alone and was making her hella uncomfortable. Staff handled it quickly and professionally thank you!!

Outright dangerous. I have no desire to go here. However, all I keep reading about Ego, is that it is dangerous. Many people are drugged via their drinks, and don’t remember anything. Since 2018. I have seen hundreds of threads from Providence, Reddit, and stories from people, stating this. Do not drink anything you don’t open yourself, or leave it. Please, be safe! Be/love whomever you want to be, but, be safe! Avoid here.

Honestly such a waste of 10 dollars! The men in here were so creepy! The bouncer was rude and let in everyone no matter how drunk or rude they were to other clients! Such a waste of money and time please steer clear! There are so many better places for queer people providence!

Me and my friends were in a very uncomfortable situation involving us getting surrounded by a group of men outside. When i finally got away and asked the outside security for help to get the men away from my friend, he said does your friend have legs cant she walk over here? VERY UNPROFFESSIONAL and i thought security was there to help you, but they proved they did not give one f about the situation

They Do NOT allow bisexuality in this club. I was dancing with a guy for abt 30 mins and the second I swapped to a girl I was immediately kicked out.

I had went to this club for a friend’s birthday and they tried to tell me I’m dressed “to straight” like what I thought this place was supposed to be “judge mental free” then as I’m enjoying myself after they finally let me in I started a conversation with a women who I thought was very beautiful. I then asked her if she would like to dance. She agreed and she started dancing on me. It was maybe 2 mins into us dancing I got approached by two gentleman who worked for the club and they escorted me and my other friend out of the club and then they explained to us that this is a gay club. We understood that. They continued to tell us that we were “preying on women”. Mind you we walked in and went straight to the back/outside to smoke. We didn’t attempt to talk to anyone as we were also the only ppl in the outside area. (It was 12:30. 30 min before closing on a sunday. im assuming they close at 1) I had the conversation with the girl after leaving the outside area and dancing inside the club. As me and my friend are talking to the security they snatch my friends drink out his hand completely splashing it all over him. (They broke the cup all over him) they threatened us multiple times saying they would pepper spray us or beat us up after we were trying to explain ourselves. I completely understand this is a gay club but I have been to this club multiple times and never had a problem like this. I was in ego for probably 10-15 mins the most and all this happened to me it’s completely unacceptable. If I’m having a good time and dancing with a female I deserved to get treated like dirt? All bc i “dress to straight”. Worst club ever!

amazing staff that actually cares about the patrons. was escorted out tonight by security but not before them making sure i was hydrated and accounted for. thanks to the security would absolutely come back here again
this bar sucks. my friend literally got drugged and instead of helping her out, they kicked us out and my friend was legit incoherent on the streets of providence. do not come here they don’t care about anyone safety for real

I would love nothing more than to watch this business go under. The bouncers are extremely rude and disgusting (as you can see in other reviews). They treat their CUSTOMERS, like trash and will let you know that they don’t even need you in the club. The bouncers act as if they’re guarding some high end club, all the while it’s actually reminds you of cheap dive bar. Dont give this business any of your money, go elsewhere. Business owner, if you’re reading this, I hope you fail.

i used to come here from mid 2021-summer 2022. none of my experiences were ever worth it. the staff took their jobs WAY too seriously, as noted by other reviews. i saw a girl get kicked out for absolutely no reason, at least i didn’t see anything visibly wrong while she was dancing with me. if you’re an attractive and visibly gay individual you’ll have a great night here! but if you don’t meet the staffs’ standards good luck lol. the general atmosphere was also judgemental as hell. i got laughed at for socializing with other people. don’t waste your time here if you’re LGBTQ+ or struggle with self confidence issues. the community is not accepting if you don’t meet their standards and you will get extremely humbled. also, the bouncers pat you down in a way that could be borderline SA. honestly the whole experience was a little traumatizing.

Tried a new club for pride this year and unfortunately I have to give the worst review. There is zero reason that security people need to fondle anyone during a pat down. One shorter woman working security last night looked me up and down then caressed all around my breasts and down my entire body while making comments about my outfit. You’re supposed to use the back of your hands also. The whole situation was just insane and it’s sad that this seems to be a reoccurring issue for years now due to other reviews I’ve seen. One of the bartenders was wonderful but that’s probably the only good thing I have to say about this establishment and will continue going anywhere else for pride for years to come.
