Always fun, especially on weekend karaoke nights! As of writing, it starts at 9 PM Fri/Sat, and 8 PM on Sundays, then goes to just before last call. Be advised, this is not your typical bachelorette party's karaoke stage. The sound system is great, and the singers are generally *phenomenal*. It can be intimidating to get on stage here, but talent is absolutely celebrated! Liquor drinks pour heavy, so consider that before ordering a double. The staff are friendly and attentive, but the crowd inside can get so thick to the point it's hard to get a drink, find a seat, or even walk around. On weekdays, crowding isn't normally an issue, but on Fridays and Saturdays, I would generally advise arriving early (before 10 PM, in most cases) if you easily get claustro-/agoraphobic.

Quaint but full of energy at the same time. Friendly, kind, and funny staff that also sponsor various leagues and organizations across the city (including CMSA softball). The Moscow mule was delicious and the music was bumping. Thanks Bobby Loves They will be opening a new place at the old Berlin soon, too - i will be there 🌻

You might have to wait 2 hours to get on stage for karyoke. I’ve been to a few Saturday karaoke nights. Always the same DJ. The Venmo tip placards are new. If you tip the DJ and show the Venmo receipt he will move you up to the front of the list. He will point to the Venmo qr code when asking how long the wait is. Seems like the dj’s friends who sing screamo/heavy metal get on stage frequently which is cool, but the favoritism is annoying. The dj also seemed to not care about the length of the list because he enjoyed to talk between performances which was only 30 seconds, but with such a long wait, he needs to be more considerate of time. Most annoying thing last night was the dj getting on stage to sing a song after we had been waiting for 2 hours to sing. Very small, cute bar otherwise.

I do not know how to describe the fowl smell here. I came here last weekend with friends and tried again this weekend but it makes me nauseous, and the rest of my friend group (a couple of them regulars) can't take it either. Cell Block smells better than this.

Amazing bar. Great KJ, such fun and friendly clientele, and amazing bartenders. Legitimately everyone is so nice here and it's really community oriented.

Was hoping to get my basement flooded but instead it smelled like flooded basement. $8 for a well drink in Boystown isn't terrible but not great either. Bartender was the best part of the experience.

Chris is absolutely incredible. vibes are always welcoming and safe here. i love this place and will be back as many times as possible!!!!

We came here to celebrate a birthday and brought battery operated fake candles. After being there for an hour and having mostly full drinks they decided to kick us out with no explanation. We were just singing along with the Karaoke. If it was the fake candles we would have turned them off but they offered no options or explanations. For some reason for the first hour it wasn’t an issue though? Guess they just wanted to get their money and get us out. Talk about a non gay friendly gay bar. 0 out of 10. Take your money elsewhere.
