About this place Bulldogs

Bulldogs was a gay bar at 893 Peachtree Street NE in Midtown Atlanta, for decades one of the city's best-known bars for Black gay men. It was a small, no-frills place with a dance floor, known for cheap drinks and a loyal neighbourhood crowd. Reports indicate the bar has closed, and we have no current phone, website or opening hours on file. Do not plan a night around this listing without checking first. Midtown remains the centre of Atlanta's gay nightlife, and several active bars are within walking distance along Peachtree, Juniper Street and 10th Street.

I was just there 5/17, I have a valid GA drivers license, I had it on my phone. They tell me they can’t take photo IDs…ok. Then I’m staying on the side of the line deciding to go home and get my ID or just stay home. When I see a person I know do the same thing as me, but with a Louisiana drivers license. I go back up and say i what I saw. The bounce says “oh he has a Louisiana License, and it’s digital and that’s why I let him in.” Georgia has digital ID’s as well. So I’m guessing because dude was light skin that’s why he got it. Nice to know an established is colored based.

Hello Bulldogs bar Mgr. Tonight I've experienced harassment and discrimination based on my current disability. I approached the Bulldogs building to enter and was very disrespected by the security guard at the door. He was touching my ID with his gloves and harassed me for having my ID upside down. My error, however he continued to harass me for choosing to hold my id in a firm manner. I informed him politely I don't like people touching my card especially with them gloves for numerous reasons. I don't need to discuss my disability to him which is personal. Once I passed the security process to pay my cover fee, the black male security continued harassing me about "my attitude". I directly but politely told him he's being very rude to me. He told the guy at the register not to accept my money and wouldn't let me in the bar. This is harassment and discrimination! It was a humiliating experience! If this is how customers are treated I will never come back here again. This incident took place at approx. 11:05pm Monday night.

Have not been out in years. Met some really cool ppl. Had a ball. Did not try food so I cant comment. The middle bar tender with the bald head likes to stick his fingers inside ppls cups which I did not find very sanitary. The dance floor was super sticky. My 1st thought was not of a pure nature, but im sure it was liquor....lmao We got there super early as we came from a open Mic night so there was no music playing outside until later. One of the single stalls the latch worked but didnt have anything to latch onto....so I was just waiting to be walked in on, even though I would not have cared lol we left around 1am and got there around 9pm. It was an amazing night. Will definitely return. Drinks are reasonable.
