Cozy homey gay bar. While some may wanna show off on the dance floor or get gagged by drag Kweens, there's also the quiet gays that just wanna go to a bar and be around like minded people. Its a small town bar in the big city of La Crosse. It doesn't have the flashy extravaganza of a club like Saloon in Minneapolis; it's made more for the working gay wanting a tipple after a shift. You come in, grab a drink, hang out, and make memories like Cheers or more aptly QaF. There's dirt cheap drink prices if you want to indulge in bad decisioning and go home with a new friend, but the most of the patrons grab a beer and chat amongst themselves. The staff are fun and bring a homey vibe, definitely can see how some of the other reviews provided feedback on regulars versus newcomers. But being new to the city and having a tad more melanin than the average Wisconsinite, I didn't experience the discrimination that was aforementioned. The other thing I really appreciate was the gender expression diversity. It's not all cis male appearing dudes.

The bartenders are always super friendly and the drinks are great! It’s literally like a second home.

Uhm....yeah. It's all regulars, as an out of Towner there are three things I saw bad about this gay bar, 1. The bartenders only service the regulars first, sitting at the bar it took 15 min before either bartender served us, 2. The tunes box doesn't let you do fast passes, which doesn't allow you to know when your music or songs come on so it could be hours or days, per the bartender said and they apparently can skip it behind the bar but didn't allow some gay pop tunes, and 3. Says no vaping but they allow the regulars; us newbies were told no vaping but they didn't say anything to the regulars. I also went up and asked the lesbian over weight short haired bartender and she said no we don't allow it so everyone could hear their music (the fast pass) and i said well that's bad for business because my songs can be days or hours before we hear it and she shrugged her shoulder. Don't come here for gay bars - I hear a bigger competitor is coming in the near future. (Oh wait that's my club)

Bartenders, great I may have annoyed one of them didn't seem to like me but people there were amazing. Drinks were reasonable unlike most in the area and staff was friendly,Thanks Courtney ? for the great time!

Nice crowd, good lighting, and decent prices. $3.25 a beer sure beats most. Thanks for a good time.
Bartender was sweet and the drinks were very yummy!

If it was not the only "gay friendly" bar in town. They'ed never get a dime from me.Very clicky,The Bartenders are not very polite. (in my opinion.) & downright rude and condescending.They're sunshine and smiles w/their cronies.You & I,may or may not be an inconvenience*on the flip side, there are a few, that are damn right excellent bartenders.

We aren't from town (in for Octoberfest) and didn't immediately know what this place was until we were inside but thought, why not give them some business...totally ignored at the bar until our group just finally walked out...and it's not as if it was packed...actually got service in far less time in any number of completely packed bars on and off 3rd street that Saturday...they made it clear we weren't welcome...duly noted

Came in with a large group. Bartenders were very nice and quick with orders. Music was good and not too loud.
