In Short – This neighborhood bar attracts clientele from every social stratum, ethnicity and sexual orientation. A large patio and wooden deck are convivial spots to watch an impromptu game of hoops on the bar's court or scan the Dallas skyline. Techies appreciate the digital Internet jukebox with more than 160,000 songs, the wireless Internet access and the Sony Playstation II at the bar. For the low-tech crowd, there's a pool table and plenty of people-watching.

THE BEST BAR IN THE WORLD EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!
by paddy2000 at Citysearch
The bar has most definitely changed my whole perspective on bars. It's the coolest, funnest place in the whole of the States. I have traveled all around the States and have yet to find a bar quite like this. Everyone is so friendly, from the doorman to the staff and to the clientele. There's something here for everyone regardless of your orientation. Drinks are cheap and strong and the juke box is legendary. If you can't deal with the gay scene and trannies you should come here to broaden your mind (that's directed at you Dallasgirl2-get over yourself!) Personally, I think the staff are great-friendly and very generous with their measures. The atmosphere is like none other. This place is in a league of its own. If you come here once, you'll definitely become a regular!
- Pros: Broad spectrum of people, you can dress up or dress down-no one will bat an eyelid. Cheap and strong drinks.
- Cons: Only two bathrooms, situated at the entrance of the bar. (They do provide extra facilities outside)

Watch it.

I would be careful about the "people watching", lest your natural interest and curiosity about people of all kinds
is considered "staring" and you are singled out as a "newbie", and I suppose, some kind of rube.
There is a definite cliqueishness about the place, but that's to be expected. But if they want to continue to recruit new regulars, and they may not, in fact, care, they should ease up on insulting people they don't know anything
about. I have been friends with trannies, gay men and women since before one particular young bartender was born.
Aside from that, the drinks are fine, and while the inside is crowded on a busy night, there is plenty of outdoor space, weather permitting.
