EDIT: The organization has rightfully asked me to clarify that I am not a member, voting or otherwise, past or present, of CCL, nor have I pursued membership or been interested in doing so. I’ve helped a little bit with a few of their events, but I’m just some concerned queer who got livid when he heard about this, and I thought that implying I’m with a group would make my words carry more weight. Stupid, and I make exactly one apology to y’all: for lying about my affiliation, I’m sorry. The organization has also asked me not to abut this reply, and I have grudgingly agreed. However, the post stays. I will notate my deception, and will also remove the needlessly rude section at the end, but the rest stands. ORIGINAL POST, EDITED AS EXPLAINED ABOVE: This is honestly a great bar, mostly, hence the 5-stars for Food, Service, and Atmosphere. I was initially glad my organization [NOTE: THIS IS A LIE, SEE ABOVE] chose to patronize this place. But that appreciation ended last night when bar management decided that keeping things quiet was more important than dealing with an assault and battery that happened at the bar. If the genders and races in the situation had been reversed, my friend would still be in jail right now, while the harasser in this situation got to finish out their night feeling good about getting away with what they've done. Someone reserving your bar for an event does not magically get the right to assault and batter someone. Never mind that the person doing the A&B has a history of harassing the person they chased out of the bar... [NOTE: FINAL PARAGRAPH REMOVED FOR BEING UNNECESSARILY RUDE]
Literally the coolest place on Earth. The owner is super duper nice. Made me feel super safe as a queer person to be here with my friends!
Cute spot!
Loved the bingo brunch !!!
First time. Food needs some work. But for bar food its good. The chicken and waffles would be great if the chicken was not whatever they served me yesterday. Pieces of quarter inch dried out burned on one side deep fried then placed on a flat top? Idk. But the Buffalo blackened Bleu burger was outstanding. The karaoke was fantastic the games on the patio would have been great. But the piles of fresh dog shit covered with poop bags was absolutely absurd. This place is amazing but there were things that could have been so much better. Simple things
