By far the worst DJ music I have ever heard. Not one song was danceable. Poppy, bad, to old crappy tecnho. The security guard acted like a tyrant, the bartenders need training in customer service, they did not care what so ever. The front door guy was the only nice vibe we got. Will never go back, nor will I ever recommend this place. A dump, with bad music and unfriendly staff. STAY AWAY, THERE ARE BETTER PLACES

A couple girlfriends and I went to this bar to have a nice time but one of us was thrown out for being “too drunk”. She was sitting down waiting for another friend to fiver a drink and she was thrown out! The security staff was rude and condescending to us when we tried to get an explanation. The local Swedish guys we met there were scared of the staff, and that says a lot! We are from Iceland and this never happens there. Would never go here again and will tell everyone to avoid it like the plague!!

We stopped by on a Friday afternoon after exploring Gamla Stan. The place was mostly empty, but we enjoyed burgers and several drinks in the front seating area.I'm sure the vibe at night is much different, during the day felt more like a calm gay café vs. a busy gay bar (which is fine with me).

Impressed at how good it was during the super busy pride period! Many rooms that ranged from busy dancing to chill quieter hang out spots. The people were nice and the mood was good.Sam is a delight and kept us coming back.

Awful service, was not let in with my girlfriend because the bouncer thought I had "couple of drinks", which in reality was the extreme opposite. With his skills of reading body language and people he is a danger to himself and others while "performing" his job. Total unprofessionalism, no enthusiasm in understanding, service and spirit of welcoming hospitality, something that purportedly this place should be all about. Avoid this place of fake posing and artificial show-off, as these kinds of places are actually the ones giving a bad rep to the freedom of the LGBT movement! Such a shame.

We came to this place twice. Different experience in the afternoon than the evening. Great place to stop for a quick drink. It’s on a very touristic side of the city.

If I could leave less than 1 star I would. Walked up and said good evening to the security guard and his response was not tonight. I asked why thinking...

It was ok. I think the layout is very interesting but it gets extremely warm inside so the ventilation isn't the best. The were playing some pretty good...
