About this place Purgatory

Purgatory is a queer-owned bar at 675 Central Avenue in Bushwick, Brooklyn. It combines a neighbourhood bar with a small performance space, hosting drag, comedy, DJ sets and dance parties through the week. There are cocktails with church-themed names, snacks, a few corners to settle into and an outdoor patio. The crowd is mixed queer and leans local and Brooklyn-creative. Line-ups change constantly, so check the events listing before heading out if you want a specific show. Weekday evenings are calmer; party nights run late.

They are ablist. My homeboy is in a wheel chair and straight up they wouldn't serve him because he was in a wheel chair.
