Gay bars providence
This place has strong drinks! The music here is more queer pop/hip-hop, and the pool table costs but tends to be super friendly, not to mention the good cosmos around it. The staff here have been low-key in a welcoming way. There are two bathrooms. The ladies' bathroom has two smaller stalls, one large stall and two sinks, with a huge mirror on wall antonym the sinks. The men's bathroom has two urinals, a large stall and three sinks with a similar mirror. There is a barrier between the urinals and the sinks, so more privacy and less glances, if that's a concern. All genders seem to use both bathrooms, which is satisfactory. Bathrooms are near the bar, so staff is near-by. The patio is a couple of tables on the sidewalk along the building, and maybe a half a dozen chairs. Thursday night karaoke with a contest for a partially paid bar-tab! This place has way more dance floor than some other queer bars, and also has more casual seating, too. There is decent lighting in the main area and club lighting on the dance floor.
