    After 4 bar/nightclub attempts in maybe 6 years at this single door, no window storefront, the present owner has hit the mark. Eagle Wilton Manors has managed to tame the large space by creating 3 distinct bar rooms along with the dance floor and stage. Similar to other Eagle gay bars around the world, the ambience is dark, masculine, testosterone-fueled, cruisy and sexy. The DJ music is deep and loud, but not as ear-drum shattering as other bars on the Drive. The almost exclusively male venue attracts a racially and age diverse crowd that doesn't mind taking their shirts off (usually mandatory in the intimate Code Room bar Wednesday thru Saturday). Many guys wear leather or colored harnesses. Signs posted in the Code Room indicate NO cell phones allowed, but security is constantly admonishing oblivious guys to shut them. The Eagle somehow has managed to be the most poplar bar on Monday nights with the weekly jockstrap night, plus a crowded underwear night on Wednesdays. Lockers are available for a nominal fee. Thankfully no smoking inside, but it is allowed in the covered back patio. The managers and bartenders are among the most welcoming crew on the Drive. They strive to make all feel comfortable in their own skins and fetishes. There is even an Eagle Leathers store onsite. The only complaint I hear from friends is the more-often-than-not weekend cover charge for 'special events' which seem to be almost every weekend. Too bad they appear to have dropped the 'free for FL residents' offer. Another worry...their pandemic Sunday Bloody Marys were absolutely the best in South Florida, full of fixins' but I have seen it lately. Otherwise, this is an awesome addition to the Fort Lauderdale gay bar scene!

    Eagle Wilton Manors is one of many bars, no there is no franchise or trademark, using the name "Eagle" which has long been associated with the gay leather community and since the early 70's. Eagle bars have long been considered a safe space for the leather lifestyle. Fort Lauderdale area once had five leather bars, but dropped to one long term survivor, the Ramrod, which exists in all of its glory today. The big difference I find with Eagle Wilton Manors is that unlike the Ramrod or most other leather bars is that it prohibits smoking, so there are no cigar night themes and you won't end up smelling like an ashtray; a welcome relief for me. When I stopped by I was delighted to find that Eagle Wilton Manors was sticking to leather lifestyle traditions with its "Code Room" dark bar wherein you are required to be shirtless or in leather. Overall it's a great place with a colorful décor and pleasant bar staff. It has a leather store and pretty much sticks with the correct background music. And though it has a "no phone" policy, you really can't enforce it on the violating queens. Unfortunately, as with all of Wilton Manors, parking can be problematic.

    I visited Johnson's Club in Fort Lauderdale intending to have a drink and possibly watch the stage…read moreperformances. Shortly after arriving, I was approached by a short Latin man who repeatedly pressured me to follow him to a private room. I clearly declined and told him I was not interested. Although he initially left me alone, he returned and continued insisting that I go with him. Eventually, I agreed to follow him, but at no point did he explain the pricing, fees, or how the private-room services worked. After the interaction was over, I was suddenly asked to pay a large amount of money without any clear explanation of the charges. Had the costs been disclosed upfront, I would have made a different decision. What bothered me most was the lack of transparency and the pressure tactics used throughout the experience. When I questioned the charges, the atmosphere became uncomfortable and hostile. I felt misled by the information I was given and left feeling taken advantage of. Based on my experience, I found the environment to be predatory and focused on getting customers into situations where they may not fully understand the costs involved. I felt robbed of the opportunity to make an informed decision, and I would not recommend this establishment to others. If you choose to visit, make sure you get a complete explanation of all pricing and fees before agreeing to anything.
