Good local gay bar.. Stools are too short for the tables which is annoying. Staff are great. Higher stools or lower tables and it would be five stars! ;)

It's a great bar, good atmosphere friendly people, definitely go again next time not after three consecutive night shifts!

City centre location walk down the stairs and you'll be greeted with good energy, and a whole new face lift to the venue. The owners are lovely and made sure we had the best night out we have had for ages. The shows are massively entertaining and after the show you can pay £2 and take over the music. Really enjoyed that and had plenty of spare pound coins as drinks are cheaper than most of not all of the other local bars. Will be back soon.

I didn’t feel welcome here. Bar staff can be best described as frosty. Luckily the regulars were a bit warmer. Nowhere to charge a phone except a stupid and unworkable machine that demands a £25(!!!) deposit for no explicable reason. Beer also very expensive.

Grotty little bar with cheap arse folding chairs and outdoor tables, sticky floors, and what can only be described and flavoured tap water for booze, reminded me of a bar from the 90s - christ knows what the new owners have done but I wouldn't throw my last bottle of water on the place to save it from burning! The best part of this sh*itshow of a bar was the staff and the Queens- the guy behind the bar had an infectious personality and another member of staff made me and my group of friends feel incredibly welcome, it was 10pm on a Friday night and we were the only souls in the building... note to new owners, close before you bankrupt yourselves, you clearly haven't a Scooby do what your doing.
