About this place Green Lantern

The Green Lantern sits on Green Court NW, a narrow alley off L Street near Thomas Circle. The entrance is easy to miss, so look for the alleyway. Two levels house bars on each floor. The clientele is mostly gay men, often bearish. Cheap drinks and regular theme nights are the main draws. Leather and fetish nights happen, but it’s more of a neighborhood spot than a dedicated leather bar. Open from 4 p.m. on weekdays and 2 p.m. on weekends, it stays until 2 a.m., or 3 a.m. on Friday and Saturday. Prices rank among the lowest in central DC. Check the website for the weekly theme schedule.

A solid gay bar for men. Downstairs they play appropriate/good music & videos; drinks are strong and reasonably priced; bartenders are hardworking and nice to look at. Clientele is mostly men (thank god); various ages/demographics make for a nice mix and some potential hook ups. Upstairs can be hit or miss music wise. A nice space for dancing, good air conditioning and again a solid bar/drink experience. Restrooms with working stall doors and fairly clean are much appreciated...
