    Nicely tucked away and can host some great parties. The slew of pictures bombard you are exclusively white and fair skinned guys, so it unfortunately sums up many gay bars and their market in DC

    Omg. DC's trashiest but also most fabulous gay bar. Open late with friendly bartenders who pour them strong. The Lantern is bedrock.
