Gay 90's

FUN DRAG SHOW! The performers were beautiful and kept the show exciting. We came in at about 10pm on a Saturday night and had a blast! There are so many different rooms and multiple bar areas to explore. There are even three different dance floors, some with cages for you to dance inside of. Drinks are expensive, small and mostly ice. So I only had one. But my server was super nice and had these huge muscles so I didn't mind too much. Decor looks like it hasn't been updated since the 90's but if it keeps the entrance fee lower, it's good enough for me. On Saturday, entrance fees were:$10 for 21+$20 for 18-20 year olds Pro Tips:1. Bring CASH. They do take credit cards, but the entry can be so much faster if you pay with cash . It's also nice if you have $1 bills to tip the performers. At the entrance, stay in the far right lane with cash in hand if you want to get in quickly. 2. Park in a ramp/lot, not on the street. Many of the nearby street parking spots become no parking zones at midnight. But that's when the party is starting to get good, so just park in the ramp. C Ramp is just 2 blocks away. If you're looking for some weekend fun, give this place a try.

Good lord. Not sure what I was expecting for an 18+ club but this was somehow exactly it. Super crowded up front, even though there's a ton of rooms in the back if you keep walking. Music gets deafening. Bodies and sweat everywhere. I was ready to leave 10 min in. Drinks are interestingly priced. I thought it was pretty reasonable but I realized I had no idea how they calculate them. 2 green tea shots for $24. A midori sour was just $7. I believed it because I'm not asking for any more detail when I can feel the music pingponging my brain around and I'm unfortunately part of a jostling crowd all trying to get drinks. I was reading some pretty negative stuff about the bouncers, but that wasn't the case for us. They were pretty stoic, but I didn't see anyone forcibly removed. Some of our crowd was under 21, which was why we elected to go here in first place. Would maybe return for a show, but not for fun. If you're over the age of 21 with a more developed frontal lobe, just go to a regular bar.

We were visiting for a conference and after dinner we wanted a different place for dessert and when walking past this place, we decided to stop in to have a drink. The vibes were weird from the beginning. The security grump, I mean guard, was rude and obviously bothered by us wanting to come in. We entered anyway and sat down at the bar. We were greeted by the bartender and the awkwardness just continued. Maybe because we weren't local or maybe just because but we were definitely not very welcomed and as much as we wanted to enjoy ourselves, we left before finishing our drink. Quite a disappointment Minneapolis.

I would highly not recommend this bar for 21+ people. Because the bar is 18+, it is a very chaotic environment with drinks being thrown and people running. The DJ also seemed to have a set to please a younger crowed. However, if you enjoy drag shows there is a quieter stage upstairs. The cover is $10 for 21+ and a small mixed drink with ice was $18.

My best friend and I stumbled upon this place when we were debating on how to spend our night out in Minneapolis. There was a bit of a line, but it moved quickly. When we got inside, we saw how it moved so quickly. The place is huge. Soon as we came in you're at the bar and a dance area. But we also peeped the flow of traffic migrating upstairs. So we followed the flow of traffic upstairs. That's where we found the drag show. Honey it was wonderful!!!!! We were treated to veteran artists who'd performed all over the country and on RuPaul's Drag Race and we even saw the newbies that were just starting out. It was a real treat! When I'm in the area, I will be back!! This place comes highly recommended.

The gay 90s is such a fun time! Parking can be difficult in the area, but there are some parking garages and it's right by the light rail. It's massive, with probably 7 or more different rooms that have different vibes. As we were walking around with kept entering different areas, like how big is this place? The decor is really fun, and again, different in every room. They have a coat, and a pretty thorough entry process. It's kind of a lot, but I appreciate it for safety reasons. The drinks are pretty cheap, $6! And the bartenders were really nice. Upstairs, there was a drag show going on, which lasted four hours! I couldn't believe it was from 10 to 2am. They have an ATM and the bartender near there was prepared to give change in the form of singles, which we really appreciated. The place was packed and we had a lot of fun!! I would say there's some thing for everyone in each room-- drag shows, a smaller bright room with stripper poles, a karaoke room, a chill game room with pool etc, a massive dark dance room, a third dancing area with different music than the others, some food to order, and a bar upstairs to sit by. They have a lot of 18+ nights and literally something going on every night of the week it seems like. I used to go a lot when I was 18 and just moved to the city, and it was a trip to be back and now that I'm 28. It's not somewhere I would be going every weekend now, but if I lived in the cities, I would definitely continue to go!

Oh boy! Was this a fun place!When my buddy and I were in the area for a Vikings game, we went here the night before and had a blast.The music was pumping. The drinks were flowing. The horrible dance moves were-a rockin'! We both got in one of the cages and on the front stage and danced the night away.The cover was $10, which wasn't bad. The drinks were priced right but were small and mostly ice.Everyone we met was super nice. I think he and I would definitely go back to this place again.

Despite being in the Twin Cities for 13 years I only came here for the first time last weekend to celebrate a friends birthday. I was way more impressed than I thought I'd be. The line to get in was a little annoying but once you're in it's a blast. The place is divided into themed rooms including an "arcade" room, a pop room, a dance/EDM room, and the drag show upstairs, there's another room that I didn't get a chance to visit but I plan to see what the theme is next time I go back! There is a cover fee which is a little annoying, especially given the price of their drinks (a little high for the type of bar this feels like.) but I feel like the fun atmosphere makes up for it.

Allowing minors in allows conflicts between bar staff/patron and patron/patron. High prices and decent ambience don't make up for the stress of a crowd that insists on creating problems.

well-priced drinks but the experience is not worth the stress. bouncers kicked out for a patron not ID-ing the strangers near him. the onus of verifying age is not on a patron :(
