Not safe.
All the bartenders were very lovely. I'm sorry I didn't get their names.
I was there for the Chappell Roan single release party with my wife. We were there all night buying drinks and spending money. We were watching the drag show and "parted the sea" as directed for the performers. Some guy and his girl (at a gay bar) tried to intimidate us to move. They said they paid for their seats at the bar. I told them to get staff to talk to us. We were just standing like everyone else. The guy decided to get in my face to try and intimidate us. Fortunately, some other patrons interfered and kept it from escalating.
I was directed by bar staff to tell the owner. She spent more time telling us that he's a Nice Guy, actually. She said she'd talk to him, but otherwise did nothing to address how we were treated in what's supposed to be a safe space.
I don't care if a straight couple are at a gay bar celebrating the single release of a gay artist. But they should not be tolerated to intimidate a gay couple also trying to enjoy the show whatever their familiarity with the owner. At that point it stops being a safe space.
Do not recommend. I do not feel safe returning to this bar for my nights out.
Edit to add: Also I smell like smoke after which is something I could get over normally, but as a nonsmoker it's a pretty frustrating to experience on top of everything else. And whether you encounter a jerk or not you'll leave smelling like smoke which you may or may...
Read moreThis is a must try if your anywhere near by. Very clean, authentic food, family owned and operated by family. The owner is an amazing lady and very hands on (meaning willing to jump in where needed, not standing back watching her staff scramble). Food is spot on if your looking for real Italian home cooked food. She, her daughter and Grace were working the floor. Great atmosphere, very positive attitude, attentive to our needs and ....amazing food!
Your missing out if you don't take a chance and try Frankie's! They won't disappoint.
Thank you to the family at Frankie's for sharing a piece of your world with us. You're truly an amazing treasure hidden in...
Read morehonestly I saw some reviews on here about the smoke and thought to stay away cause of my asthma but being trans I don’t really feel comfy going out and sometimes I’d rather not but I came to the Star Trek show awhile ago and then the Chappell Roan dance night and each time I’ve had a really great experience. yeah the smoking isn’t my favorite thing but the owners being there make the space feel safe. Lesbian bars are like rare and awesome if you’re into that dive bar scene. Going to the anime show...
