About this place Bishop's Lounge

Bishop's Lounge sits on Strong Avenue, just a block from Main Street in downtown Northampton. It’s not a gay bar, exactly. It’s a mainstream spot that happens to be gay-friendly, which in a town with such a large lesbian and queer population mostly means the crowd is mixed and nobody blinks. Doors open at 16:00 on weekdays and 14:00 on weekends, staying open until 01:00. Prices stay low. Some evenings bring bands or DJ sets. If you’re hunting for a dedicated queer night, check local listings; Northampton’s events tend to move between venues.

Ordered 5 shots, watched the bartender pour 3 and insist they poured 5. Will not come back here.
