Great windows to sit and people watch. The beers weren't that cheap, and the first waiter had PLENTY of attitude! Still, the windows gave great views to the pedestrians out front, so it's a great place to people watch. Didn't eat here, so cannot comment on the food.

Ok, hit this bar early on a Saturday night and it was getting full already. Not many young things here, but a few bear daddies to look at. Not the most pretty people here, but the beers were cheap and the set up is all about cruising. Stand at the top of the stairs to get a good look at the front bar! UPDATE: Was here on 10/18 and 10/20. Place was packed with people. Very friendly, quick service, but again, not much to look at. It's a great place to start the night, tho!

Friends took us here, and it's a great place! Clean, quite, nicely decorated. The Staff was very attentive, but not pushy - and WAY gay friendly! HOT manager on our visit! The food was done well - gnochhi, ravioli, salmon, tortellini - all were tasty dishes. I though the prices were a bit high ($18 for ravioli), but the dining experience made up for it! Highly recommend trying this place for a splurge!

Ok, went here on a Saturday night for Men in Gear night. There were maybe 6 people in gear besides the bar tenders, and maybe 25 people total. Time was near 11 pm, and the bar tender was friendly as hell, but no crowd and the ones that were there were a bit old. Cold beer, cheap prices, but crowd left a lot to be desired!

Have been here more often than not, less attitude than the other bars in Dallas! Granted, not all the people there are models, but most are friendly enough to chat with. The upstairs store is filled with some great stuff, but it's not cheap! Plus, that new building in the parking lot offers a lot more than "new space", if you get my drift!

Come here to dance, as the floor is packed all night long! Good cruisy bar, with a few good pool tables in the back too. Drinks flow fast from the bar, and the people are decent to look at too! Lots of normal, laid back, easy to meet people here!

Was there a spell back, the crowd seemed a bit older than most other places. The bartenders were quick with service, and actually got us a round. Clean bathrooms, good music, but the place was not filled as we were there @ 10:30. Maybe it gets busy later in the evening? It did have an outdoor patio too

At the corner of 39th and Barnes, this place is a throw-back to the old days. Long pours on liquor, smokey rooms, CRUISY patio, interesting clientel. Even if you're not a tramp, you need to step in and be jettisoned back to yesteryear! Service is fast, juke box plays the Gay Hits & Country, strongest drinks in town!

The Copa and Finish Line bars are located within the hotel itself. There is a vending machine filled with the essentials: condoms, lube, poppers, and snacks. It gets SUPER cruisy after hours, with people with windows open basically offering up thier wares for the night. I think there are actually some people that live here too!? It's way cruisy, and lots of people stay there and pick up, too! Bars, accessories, and bodies = bath house! Have fun!

Have been here many times, and the music is usually banging out some good beats to shake to. The crowd is busy all night, and the bartenders are quick to service - usually. You can usually find a hot guy or two to focus on, and the dancers do an adequate job too!

Went here 5-24-08 with a large group (14) Service was fast and effcient, with awesome drinks coming out too! Calimari was quite tasty with some sort of pineapple-horseradish sauce that was TO DIE FOR! Food was prepared nicely, crowd was small for a Saturday night, but people watching was incredible! The bathrooms don't have a sign stating Mens/Womens, you have to look at the newsprint on the walls - felt like a unisex bathroom, where you could look into the other one. Cool? Creepy? You decide. Otherwise, a great place!

Was here on May 23rd and the place was busy. Front bartender was more concerned with chatting with friends and getting drinks for them than anything else, so skip him and go to ANY of the other ones that work for their $$. Younger crowd that had some attitude, but worth a visit (a short one) if you're taking a trip here. HUGE bar with lots of space! I heard there was a naked shower show on Sunday, but didn't get there!

Was here on Sunday, May 25th, for the beer bust and had a really good time! It was odd that one room had on showtunes, but it was a lighter atmosphere than the rest of the place. FRIENDLY people and some nice ones to look at, not an overly young crowd either. Liked the outdoor patio! Would go back and try it on another night!

Good food and even better people watching! Used to the THE place to hang out weekend mornings for breakfast! Grab a cup at the end of the bar and pour your own coffee and be prepared to wait 20+ minutes to be seated. Friendly staff and good service. Keep your eyes open as this place can be very cruisey! Love the Breakfast Burrito here, as it's HUMONGO! Enjoy....

Was here for Gay World Series in August, and had a good time! The dance floor was always hopping, full of guys (probably the 100+ teams that were in town), and met some really nice people. The staff was friendly, service was fairly quick (got quicker with a nice tip!), and the patio is a great place to get away from the music and smoke! Overall, an enjoyable experience here!

When in Austin, this is THE bar to stop in and see. Bartenders are quick and cute, reasonable prices, good mix of people. They have also put some $$ into a remodel. The people here are friendly and it's a nice spot to end your night!

Was here April '08 and didn't realize that there is a $5 cover on Friday nites! Still, had 2 drinks here. The go-go boys were TOTALLY LAME, as one just sat there and talked with a "friend" and the other was on his iPhone texting. BORING! Also, we must have gotten there at dinner, as the staff was eating for our entire stay here. Cheap prices came with the cover, but the rest makes it a questionable stop at best.

Was here in April '08 after a long abscence and the place hadn't changed that much to me. The one patio where all the cruising used to take place was well lit, and had lots of people looking for action - but nothing happening! The other patio is open and really nice to sit down and chat with friends. The drinks were reasonable, but a cover on the weekends for this place seems a bit over the top for what you get once inside.

Came here after the Pegasus so already had a good buzz going. They do have a nice patio, and a great bartender back there too! The crowd was younger, trendier, and I felt a bit out of place. Wasn't near as friendly as Pegasus, but had more eye-candy to look at. The music the DJ was spinning was difficult to dance to as well.

Was here for most of the evening and sat outside on the patio. It was a nice spot to get away, until the place filled up! Kareoke going on all nite - some good, some bad - but still had fun! Drinks were reasonable, bar was crowded - overall, a good spot to see and be seen in SA!

Moby's must be the staple of the Castro. Had an easy feel to it where you could come in all dressed up or dressed down and fit right in! The drinks were cheap, but not so many friendly folks here. It's like a neighborhood bar, and if you're not part of the neighborhood people sit back and stare. Good eye candy here of all ages!

Small space with some decent 80's tunes playing on a Saturday night. The place was full, so sitting down was a tough act. Found a spot, ran into some practicing drag queens and the photoshoot ensued! Had fun here!! The drinks were cheap ($4/beer) and the people we met were friendly enough. Good mix of young/old here. Several diffent videos playing for the music so lots of folks focused on the flat screen TV's and not the people in the crowd.
