The new location has a huge and comfy interior, but the outside area pales in comparison to the old location. Well, whatta ya know, I open the door to see the aforementioned owner still with a look on his face akin to that which is made when one smells sh! t. About two weeks back, I get a tweet that the new location has opened, so I sprint out the door to at least lay eyes on the place, and while leaving the past behind, attempt to start anew with Excelsior. The answers would come typically with head buried in a crossword puzzle or periodical. In the old joint, the owner, completely void of personality, would sit in the corner while chirping out answers to ‘Jeopardy’. That said, I can’t help but call this the MOST BORING GAY BAR EVER! The move didn’t help.
As a proud member of the rainbow tribe, I believe in supporting all venues where we gather. OK… here’s my honest opinion, though it pains me to give it: For years, I’ve wanted to like this place.
