Great for Le Faux, horrible for dining

The food and service here is consistently mediocre or bad. Breakfasts in my experience have been downright nasty, and popular opinion of the place amongst everyone I know is remarkably consistent -- it sucks. HOWEVER, Le Faux show is really great. It's not a drag show per se, it's a review that includes drag. Worth going to see the show, but I'd eat somewhere else on Broadway first.

a bit of a dump....

...that's really got no business ever charging a cover (though they do on weekends). Recently made a bit nicer by addition of a dance floor. Easy walk from downtown for visitors. Bartenders are nice, crowd is attitude-free. But drinks are ridiculously expensive and lousy-- Could this be why everyone shows up late after drinking at CC's or The Cuff? Hey owner-- buy a clue: if your drinks were reasonable, people would come before midnight.

Not a leather bar

The Cuff is Seattle's most popular "general purpose" bar. If you're visiting from out of town, this is your best bet. On any given Fri or Sat it's the bar you're most likely to find a crowd. The cocktails are big and strong, and the beer selection is good. It's NOT a leather bar. Yes, there are a few leather guys, but that's because there's some of everything. Lately there are more twinkies than ever, and unfortunately the straight girls have discovered it in big numbers too (encouraged by their twinkie friends). If you don't want to stand in line, get there before 10:30. Their parking lot is small so if you need street parking, get there by 10:00 or even earlier.

this place is foul

There are occasional hot guys here and there, but overall if you're looking for attractive good-shape men (of any age) you won't find them here. Your odds are better at Basic Plumbing.
