Located in the heart of the Halsted nightclub scene, this gay bar's known for its leather theme nights; exposed brick, and black walls and cocktail tables match the mood. But don't worry if that's not your thing: Everyone's welcome here. Don't expect much dancing. Instead, the crowd often subscribes to the "stand and bop" school of movement. On weekends, a second bar in back opens up to accomodate overflow.

The place is completely dead and the bartender in the front bar only talks to you if you're cute and muscular. DEFINITELY a place to be missed
