    I came here with friends on a trip to Minneapolis and we had a blast! We came on a Wednesday night for Karaoke. There are many rooms inside of the Eagleboltbar and karaoke was hosted in a particular room in the back. I appreciate that because it was separate from the spaces that were more for drinking and chatting. The karaoke host was so nice, and had no problem with our group putting in multiple songs. The bartender was lovely and very accommodating. Staff was very sweet and it was all around good vibes! You can tell this is a traditional gay bar, frequented by gay men, but the atmosphere felt welcoming (during karaoke) to us queer women.

    Recently went here to do group Karaoke! I have been multiple times and enjoyed each time. The bartender was nice and conversational! The overall ambiance of the establishment every time I have gone has been friendly. Hope to come back soon and grab another Margarita Slushie!

    Kris and Dave are some of the nicest bartenders in the joint. Have your case ready and know what you want and they will take care of you!

    I'll start with the pros: the decor is fantastic, they host awesome drag and burlesque shows, and…read morethey have a cute patio. If you are meeting a large group for casual drinks, this is a great place. However, we went for brunch (wanting food) and were very disappointed. We wandered in, sat down and then waited. There was no indication that you order everything at the bar. I had to go up and ask to get this info and menus. Our cocktails were fine, but my tater tot egg dish had 3 tatter tots and I was still hungry after. The sausage patties were literally inedible- you could not cut them with your fork. The breakfast burrito came out well, so that item seems safe. I ordered mozzarella sticks after (because I was still hungry), and they were ok, but had a very heavy breading shell. Overall, great ambiance, but I can not recommend going for food.

    Great place to go for a drag brunch…read more I've stopped in here for a snack or a drink or two before, but this is the first time I went for a drag brunch. The tickets were cheaper than most places around, the comedy by the host is better, and the dancers were excellent. The drag show area is excellently done with professional lighting, full sound system, and dedicated bar. I can't comment on the food after this visit. I just got the ultimate Bloody Mary, which came with a mini-donut, chicken wings, bacon, celery, and more so it was basically a meal on its own! It was great, well mixed toppings were delicious, and it came with a chaser (the champagne of beers) All in all a great place to come to for a few drinks or a drag brunch!

    If you have friends visiting from out of town and wanna go out, this is a great spot. There is a…read morecover fee, but you could essentially spend the whole night here and feel like you went bar hopping. Each room has its own bar and the vibe is completely different from the last room. They have karaoke and drag shows going on at the second floor, SO FUN. Bring cash if you want to tip the dancers! The bartenders are quick and easy, and drinks have a good pour. I didn't feel skimped out at all. I'd definitely come back again!

    Fantastic drag from the ladies of La femme, the stage is visible for everyone to see, they have…read moreseating for the show! A lot of straight Women come here to feel safer than most other clubs/bars, but that also does bring in the straight men who want to take advantage or pick up queer Women hoping they'll have a threesome with another Woman, instead of respecting boundaries and human beings. A diverse crowd of sexualities is available here Security has been doing better recently about safety. They have 3-4 security guards constantly walking the premises. There are 3 different music dance rooms with different genres. Typically it's a white music room (Katy Perry and Black eyed peas, Justin Timberlake), Black music room (T pain, Jay Z, Megan Thee Stallion, and a mixed room (Rhianna, Pitbull, Shakira, Bad Bunny, Lady Gaga, Cardi B) . As well as a pool/arcade area and the drag room with the stage. The music could be updated to not play republican or abusive artists like Kanye and Nicki Minaj They do not tolerate underage drinking at all, so don't even try it here. If you under age drink at home and come drunk, you will not get in. They have different nights for different events, but you can always find fun no matter the night. The drag is my favorite part, there is a diverse cast with rotating talent, they do have a regular set base cast as well. Mercedes is the GOAT. she's incredible. The gay 90s sets out to create a truly inclusive space for everybody, despite race, gender, disability or sexuality. Straight men looking to take advantage, often visit here so just keep an eye out for them. You'll notice they travel alone or in packs of two they also keep to the edges sometimes. Keep an eye out for each other ladies and thems. People do get drugged here occasionally, but over all not as much as other places. The bathrooms are surprisingly not gross, there is good privacy and 3 different locations.

    Oh Vegas Lounge! This spot has a nostalgic spot in my heart because years ago pre-COVID, my friends…read moreand I used to go here a ton for karaoke. I love the karaoke stage, the vibes, and the divey-ness. If you go on a weeknight or before 10pm, you're likely to have a better experience. Unfortunately, in the past year or so it has been taken over by the college age folks and this last time we went, you couldn't even move by 10pm. I've never seen it that crowded! Service was (understandably) slow, and I know this is sometimes how it works, but the karaoke guy was taking bribes so our names on the list kept getting pushed back. I tend to like a karaoke bar where folks in the crowd are listening (at least a little), singing along, or clapping at the end. That wasn't the vibe here - it felt like a college bar where people were scream-talking to each other and people were singing on the stage as an afterthought. It lost a bit of its luster for me this last time I visited, and I'm sad to say I may not be back in the near future. I loved this spot in my 20s - maybe it's time for me to find a 30s dive bar instead :)

    Such an awesome neighborhood BBQ spot! The food is great, I had a pulled pork Sammie and some…read morebaked beans and both were great! The Sammie was juicy and their sauces were great to add onto it. The big winner was the baked beans, probably some of the best baked beans I've had in a while. I also had some of their house sweet tea which was delicious to go with the meal. They also have a live Jazz Orchestra that plays once in a while in the massive basement venue that I need to come back for. The servers were all wonderful, kind and attentive as well, the food does take a little while to come out so just sit back and relax but you will not be disappointed!

    Obligatory - I'm from tx, so I feel like im a good judge of bbq. This place is very decent, and I'd…read moredefinitely be back when I get a craving! A few things I don't love before I move on to the things I did like - everything was so sweet! All of their rubs, on the chicken, the brisket, and ribs, were so sugary. And the baked beans were like half sugar I swear, which I was very disappointed by. Their baked beans were especially sweet, and just not very good, which is so disappointing as they can easily be way better! (Like who uses kidney beans in baked beans)??? And the smoked salmon was definitely not smoked, at all. I did really like the ribs, they had a nice flavor. And the pork candy was good but had some incredibly chewy pieces. The brisket was good, no choice of lean or fatty but what can you except in minnesota lol. I will say the mac and cheese was really awesome, and the overall food was great. Also thought the wings were very yummy. I'd definitely be back, but would pick some different things next time.
