This place charges covers for everything every month. They easily cash grab $40 for bearracuda tickets at the door... or $60 to hang out there during pride.. Where is the money going???????

This used to be the go to bar for gay kink Seattle. Now it’s just like every other gay bar, boring with over priced cover and drinks. You can’t even buy a pitcher of beer anymore.

This place is fun, horny men women and other and GREAT DANCE MUSIC, but the doorman announced immediately upon entry "$10.00 CASH only please, we have an ATM right here!" Ok, I said! It was great BC the ATM is literally right next to him! he says leave your ID here, but BC it's easier to just leave my entire wallet, instead of extracting the ID, and I WAS 2 feet away! I use the ID but happen to turn around quickly and see HIM rifling through my entire wallet (looking for cash or ?) I challenged him and he just said "have a nice day" I wanna kick his thieving ass! !

Decent bar (with weekend cover?), greasy food, acceptable drinks. They definitely don't open at 4pm lol. Don't try to go before 7 or 8pm, the doors will be

This place isn't a gay bar anymore... They turned their back on the community, sml moved their memorial wall to CCs, most gays gave it up to the metal detectors and woo girls.. It's a shame.. But paying cover for.. Nothing? Is pointless.

As a tourist, the place is awesome, loved the vibe. Drinks are decently priced. Dancefloor can be fun but... bruh, the same beat all night long, that was quite disappointing.

Lol $10 cash only on a Friday with ZERO line. Okay... We were visiting but if you can't even update your establishment to accept credit cards/tap-to-pay how do I know you've adapting to keep the community safe in your space? Sincerely, Austin, Tx ?♂️

I brought 22 people to this bar and had my ID on my phone as per usual- these guys made me go back to my Airbnb, as a 37 year old, to get my physical I’d… how stupid… I’m clearly 36 and had my digital ID… y’all are
Just overall bad experience. Don’t go here and save your money and time.

I went to Cuff for the first time after hearing absolutely nothing but rave reviews. It is currently 5pm on Sunday October 8th and I felt I had to leave this place. I sashayed in (as I do) had a great conversation with the security guard and bartender. I was impressed with the place and had questions. I ordered a cocktail and went to explore the bar. I come back and the bartender says he doesn’t feel comfortable serving me. He had started making the drink then refused me. As a business owner I like for other business owners to be made aware of when they have low vibrational people hurting their business reputation. As a licensed bartender (podcast host - retailer - Air Force Veteran - among other things) myself I know that some bartenders just like to feel like they have power over people just because they feel so inferior and just because they can. I did nothing wrong. I did not stumble in. I also did not slur my speech. The DJ + security guard (who would not have let me in if I was wasted) can vouch for this. This is negative energy attempting to dim my light and I will not let that happen. I walked to a different gay bar and will go back to Cuff and get a different bartender. ??✨

This place has gone down hill. Before Covid, I went here and had a good time, but after Covid is an another story since ownership changed and they didn’t change the name after buying this club. We went in January 2023 and the service was okay, but the crowd here just isn’t what we vibe with. However, during pride weekend, we attended and the club was packed to way over capacity. I went outside to get some air and they locked all the doors and didn’t let anyone back in, or out of the club. My husband was texting me that they wouldn’t let anyone out and it was probably one of the scariest things because they did not provide any reasoning, which impacted our health and safety. I feel bad for anyone who did not get in and paid for a weekend pass and I hope they called their bank and reported that they didn’t get what they paid for.I have not returned since pride and don’t have the itch to go here during my free time.

They consistently play LOUD music Wednesday through Sunday! I understand playing extremely loud music on Friday and Saturday night from day 10pm-2am but the same volume on Sundays and weekdays shows a complete disregard for the neighboring apartments. People actually have jobs and want to wind down at their homes.Please consider investing in better acoustics for the club or lower the volume of music. People actually have a life outside of partying every single night.
Three bartenders on a Saturday night?
