Gsus S.S.June 12, 2023Funny touristic stop for a drink in a typical Castro bar. Respectful and friendly community. Good Jack&Coke with a lemon slice. No food but you can eat sandwiches of the nearby local.
Drink chips are good all the time. If you forget to use them, bring them back for next time!
A bit more butch, a bit more daddy-like, and bit rougher than the Edge....Yeah!!
always a fun time here with friends... the DJ on Sat night plays great music and is super cute as well. Of course, I can't forget to mention DJ Ruben, always great music from him as well... and so e
Tom A. said the bartender poors with a smile. Wrong! He POURS with a smile! Learn how to spell. PLEASE!Upvoted 4 weeks ago
Cut the scene bullshit and get to the bar where the drinks are cold, the men are hot, and if you're lucky, both are strong.- Ken BaldwinMarch 31, 2014this is the only bear bar in the castro - just bearded fellows and dance music. you'll see some cute guys there. cool hipsters and daddies
Hornet AppOctober 4, 2013One of our favorite bear/daaddy bars on the planet. If you're not a bear, it's a fun place to come chill and be man handled.
Hit and miss on the types of people here but usually pretty bustling. Especially on underwear night on Mondays.Upvoted Apr 21
William DiazMarch 13, 2015Two for one drink specials are tokens good for drinks any other time of the day.
Jon WinterJanuary 1, 2017Even though they'll tell you the place closes at 2, you'll be kicked out at 1.50 and not allowed to finish your drink. It's pretty pathetic.
Hot daddies, muscle bears, strong drinks and cruisy bathroom. Enjoy!
Come here for free gropes. Stand next to the bathroom for maximum effect.
Great bar if you're looking for a masculine crowd. Lately there has been more "attitude" at this bar, but I still love it. Read more
Gets wayyyyyyy too hot in here most nights. Invest in some fans!
One of the last real gay bars (read: fewer screechy, straight girls) left in the Castro.
Todd RezsnyakAugust 1, 2013It's loud and raucous, so if you're into that you should be able to have to a good time.
If you're drinking beer, get it at the front bar.... It's never quite cold enough from the back bar.
Parking your ass at the top of the stairs is dangerous and proves you are a moron.- If you wanna have a beer and not have a single person come talk to u go to 440 back corner around 7 on Tuesdays. Cheap beer and no creeps
You know that scene in Selena where that poor Mexican woman gets crushed up against that chain-link fence at the crowded concert? That's how I feel here. I'm that poor Mexican woman.
Some strong a$$ drinks here with some cute bartenders. Older clientele but everyone is friendly & welcoming!
Wednesday Nights are the busiest in the Castro because of their 2 for 1 drinks
- Knock on the closed bathroom door or find the key at the front bar
Tony is the nicest bartender they've got, and VERY easy on the eyes :)
The sights. The smells. The thrills. It's what this bar is all about.
