Last night I was out with my boyfriend and a friend I haven’t seen in a while was at Gabs! I quickly realized she was in a state where she was unable to be left alone so I respectfully took her under my wing. I’ve partied with her for a while now and last night I’m almost positive she was drugged knowing how she gets when she’s drunk, besides this fact I was disappointed with the so called “bouncers” or the people who are supposed to make you feel safe... as I was trying to get my friend some water the girl running the beer tub made a comment that went a little something like “well look how scrawny she is. Does she drink and do drugs often?” This comment made right in front her. I was completely flabbergasted that someone would legit have the nerve to assume someone’s well being due to there body type. For anyone wondering no she doesn’t do drugs or drink heavily enough to be judged like that. Pretty disgusting place if you ask me with just zero respect. The polite thing to do would have been to help me call my friend a cab...
Read moreHorrible place!! I went there with a group of friends for my birthday. I walked in the door and while pulling out my ID, I dropped an item on the other side of the railing (exit side).

Don’t waste your time or money supporting this business....
Read moreRacist entry policies. One of the bouncer’s explicitly told people that the bouncers are instructed not to let in a lot of black people (“one or two is okay”) and will deny entry by saying their wardrobe is wrong or that they’re not VIP’s (ironic considering it’s one of the few bars in the city that play hip hop). Very disappointed people continue to give this bar patronage knowing they practice blatant discrimination. Unsure if the racism stems from the owner or other staff members but either way I encourage everyone to warn their friends that by supporting this establishment they are supporting racist actions. Quite frankly, this establishment is often cold, filthy, and the staff is often either rude or hostile. There are better bars in the city that don’t...
