You might get get a Mickey in your drink. I'm pretty sure the bartender or somebody during the short period of time that I was there spiked my drink. I wouldn't trust the drinks. I lost complete consciousness after I left there with my guest who was driving. I ended up in a parking lot with police surrounding me. The police got me home safely with a cab and I went paralyzed from the waste down when I got out of the cab and fell on the concrete. I have been drinking for a long time and have never experienced anything like it. I lost my association with my friend as a result. I do not recommend going to the purple rhino for a homosexual t i m e Do not trust them.

LGBTQ means,more than what most people think.look up the true meaning of each category qnd you will find out how the words mean more than just what most people really know what they mean LGBTQ is a way people want to be inside of life without the crude qnd senseless meanings others think.being one of these is more about love.respect honor and friendship. Example QUEER mean ====HAPPY PEOPLE SO before you judge someone else think before you speak .you'll find probly a little of these in yourself somewhere

It was my first time there. I am visiting from NY. I wasn't there more than 15 minutes and was immediately greeted by friendly staff and customers. It was a very inviting atmosphere. And the price of drinks were more than reasonable. I would have paid double the price at a similar bar in NY. So if your looking for friendly people and an inexpensive night out, this is the place to be. And the added bonus. It's a not for profit. All the proceeds go to local gay charities.

Great fun for leather bingo, but remember it's a lodge. Don't forget to renew or get a membership, you'll be happy you did. Your membership helps our community.

Very nice gay bar. Bar service was slow. Nice decor. Beautiful bougainvillea outside.

I am from out of state, and was welcomed with open arms at this establishment. Membership is required, but they allow for visitors to come up to 3 times prior to being required to purchase a yearly membership. Bingo was great, and the demographic was more of a mature crowd. Would definitely recommend if you’re into this type of scene.
