The Alley

We visited the place on a RuPaul friday nigth, so it was full. There were many kinds of gay tribes and ages, so it's an inclusive and very secure place for everybody. The music was good, and the bartender in the second floor really put a smile in our face with his joyfull actitud. Last Friday, January 9th, at around 1:00 AM, I experienced the highlight of the night at the coat check. I saw the 3 most handsome and tallest men there: the guy working the counter, his tall friend dressed in red, and another friend in white wearing glasses. Even though I’m over 6'4" myself, they were actually taller than me. Seeing the three of them together in that area was easily the best moment of the evening.

Oof. No wonder Boston has no gay scene. Stopped by for a night cap and door man gave us third degree asking where we came from and if we were “okay.” We had wine at dinner…happily greeted him and he thought we were “too” friendly. We will gladly give our money to an Irish pub down the street I guess??? Sad for the LGBTQ living here. This picture is from another post but I think it is the same guy. He needs to go.

Was difficult to find at first, but I think that adds to the overall experience. Went during non-peak hours but I got what I wanted: good vibes, good food, heavy drinks. I felt comfortable and I felt safe, and I look forward to visiting again when I am in town.

First gay bar I've been to in about 23 years. Really looking for dinner after a late show. Pretty entertaining bar with really good karaoke singers. Food was pretty good. Burger would have gotten the 5 star if it weren't for the bun. Not a fan of the cold dense bun. Burger was tasty though. My husband got the nachos, which were pretty. Bar tenders were busy but managed to give good service. 👍

Nice of them to show world cup games, but surly bartender. I'd rather go to a straight bar like The Point, where I always get great service. Clientele were cliquish, too.
