You’re definitely going to catch a drag show here, and you’ll have a top-notch seat for it too. Photo Credit: Kit Kat Lounge Facebook The Kit Kat Lounge Host to many queer-friendly events, like women’s comedy and storytelling, Joie de Vine is where Chicago’s finest ladies go for a drink, and damn it if we’d miss out on that. Side note: can we talk about the severe lack of lesbian bars in this city!? Get it together, Chicago. One of Chicago’s few lesbian-owned haunts, Joie de Vine is technically classified as a wine bar, but everybody knows who reigns here. Photo Credit: Joie de Vine Facebook Joie de Vine Second Story Bar has been around for decades, but it’s honestly a great place to grab a drink midday since it’s lesser-known. This cash-only gay bar and club in Chicago is basically a speakeasy for the LGBTQ+ community, except, instead of being subterranean, it’s vertically smushed between a psychic shop and an Armenian restaurant. I Love this place friendly people great space.Read More: 8 Popular Bars You Need to Visit in Boystown Photo Credit: Second Story Bar Facebook Second Story Bar Nice diverse group of people and strong drinks It was a blast staff is great, show was a lot of fun Great service, slow for the most part but enjoy the environment Large space, pool tables, DJ, fast service, no nonsense people.
Need to update the website to be more informed. Simply amazing people love love love the bartenders and the owner they are sooooo gr8įriendly staff and clientele. Super welcoming local leather bar with great events and amazing staff and performers. Hands down one of the best bars this side of the Mississippi. The bar floor is excellent dive, pool, dance and affordable drinks. So went up stairs and you have to pay again. Staff was very friendly definitely will go back its a must to go check out Nice layout, drinks were weak and overpriced, clientele were fun, staff was borderline rude. They are ok during the week, but if you like crowd, fridays and Saturdays ar to go days The basement has a nice fun place to show off your kinky interest. But ypu have to be a regular and a friend of at least a friend who know an employee.
If you have enough money then you can be invited to the shirtless after hours where they have free drinks. Jimmy the bar owner is a sweetheart and they host very great drag shows (especially the Monday night show) Very happy to call this place my home club. Check it out and Leather 6410 next door & be sure to grab some tacos before you stumble home or hop in your Lyft/Uber home! Definitely check it out, gurl!! If youve not been to a Jackhammer Mens Room, youve not been to Chicago. Relaxed crowd, leather store next door, and nothing but body positivity. Florida customer wants this worry about making as much money as possible which kit to that you need to worry about the customers and our make that money and are used so I gave it
Normally I would get pissed out washing and just because Im gay for stars however jackhammers has turned into a I dont know how to put it in nine W.
Unfortunately the bar has had issues of late with the City and keeps closing and reopening due to ongoing issues. The upstairs is a fairly regular bar, though they do sometimes host live music events, while the downstairs is more a hands on fetish destination. The bar is connected to the leather store next door and you can go between them during certain hours.
The bar consists of an upstairs, with a dance floor and bar in the front, and a back section with pool tables and a second bar, as well as a basement with a dress code. Unique bar on Chicagos far north side catering to the fetish community. Its open until 4am so take a nap and dont arrive until midnight have fun I sure did !!! there is a group shower room for the WS guys and some dark cubby hole areas for other activities. There is a sling, which i was in and had loads of fun with some hot men (thanks guys). Drinks are strong and the type of Men that come there are very friendly and fun. The downstairs bar is wild and fun clothes check for those that want to be wearing a jockstrap and boots or leather or nothing!! The bartenders down there were super friendly and way hotter (more what you expect from a leather bar) they were wearing jocks and boots etc the upstairs staff just had on shorts and tshirts which i thought was not appropriate attire for a leather bar. the upstairs bartenders were not very friendly or engaging in conversation even though i was only one of 5 guys in the bar… but I did get there at 10 pm. My first time at this bar was last weekend 8/5/16 the upstairs is nice and does not get busy until midnight.
