    The ideal combination of a Dive Bar and a Gay Bar. Cheap drinks, no attitude, great shows and lots of couches to chill with friends or make out with that hottie you just met!

    Excellently reliable, just dingy enough to have some character, and always has a great mix of sexy guys.

    Barracuda is a low-key gay bar, where the Smiths and Madonna own the airwaves. It’s a neighborhood joint, and many folks know each other and welcome newcomers.

    Come here for the great atmosphere (check your attitude at the door) and the fantastic drag shows. Grab a seat on the pool table for the best views.

    The back of the bar is usually less crowded, but beware the ear-splitting blown speaker they've got back there.
