Every drink I've had has been well-balanced and genuinely delicious, not just something thrown together with cheap mix. The staff is super friendly and makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in, which honestly makes a big difference. Only thing -- it does get pretty packed, especially on weekends. It's still manageable but don't expect a ton of breathing room. Prices are a little higher than your typical gay bar, but honestly? When the drinks are this good, I don't mind paying for it. You're getting what you pay for.

I ordered a pizza, and it was good, although nothing particularly special. Definitely a great place to hang out with friends, have a few drinks, and just have a really good time.

I've been here before and had a decent experience, but this visit was disappointing enough that I…read morelikely won't return. We came as a group of five. Two of us ordered drinks right away and sat at the bar playing video games. The rest of our group was still deciding what they wanted, which we understood fell under the one drink minimum per person rule. One friend sat with us at the bar while we had our drinks and was told by the bartender that she couldn't sit there without purchasing a drink, so she moved. She then stood near our other friends, who were playing an arcade game, and they were told they could not play unless they each bought a drink. At this point, they stood behind us at the bar to look over the menu and decide what they wanted, but that didn't seem to matter. The bartender repeatedly returned and escalated the situation instead of allowing any reasonable time to order, stating they could get water if they wanted and that it did not have to be alcoholic. After only a couple of minutes, the same bartender came out from behind the bar again and said in a rude, condescending tone that they "don't understand... if they don't buy a drink, then they can't even be in the building." Our friends explained that we had already purchased drinks and were simply deciding what we wanted, but at that point, they were turned off by his behavior and no longer wanted anything--and frankly, neither did we. We cashed out our tab, finished our drinks, and left. We were already paying customers and would have ordered more drinks, but the handling of the situation made that impossible. Instead, the business lost not only our additional sales, but also several friends who were planning to join us and spend money. We are local to the area and not teenagers causing a disturbance, which is what the situation felt like when our friends were told to leave for no clear reason. I understand house rules like a one-drink minimum, but there is a professional way to enforce them. This wasn't it. Not everyone can or wants to order immediately--whether due to preferences, pacing, or dietary restrictions--and the lack of flexibility or basic courtesy was disappointing. Instead of encouraging guests to stay and order more, the approach did the opposite. Unfortunately, this experience completely changed my impression of the place, and I don't see myself returning. There are other spots in the area with a similar concept that offer a much more welcoming and customer-friendly experience, and I would recommend exploring those instead.

Monday I had the Classic Burger ($6, Monday price). On Thursday I had the pulled pork sandwich ($14, Thursday price). The angus beef burger was delicious even though it was just slightly undercooked. It came with fries or coleslaw. I chose the slaw which was creamy and sweet. The burger size was large and juicy. The slaw portion was small. The burger was good and was served on a plain hamburger bun. I added American cheese for a dollar more. The pulled pork sandwich wasn't really served on a toasted Kaiser roll, it was on an untoasted plain hamburger bun. It came with fries, pickles, and coleslaw. The fries can use some work. They were quite average. The pork was delicious and piled high. It was drenched in barbecue sauce and was very tasty. The Pub is very clean and a server takes your order and brings everything to you. This was nice. At the bar next door you have to wait in line at the bar to order food, drinks, a refill, or close out your bill. Lots of waiting in line on a busy night, but not at The Pub. Drinks at The Pub are not too overly priced. They do have a happy hour which saves some cash. There is usually live music or drag shows at The Pub which can be fun. It can also get very loud. The menu is large and prices vary but the daily specials are economical.

I'm visiting the Foodie & Cocktail BFF and we're looking for a post dinner place in Fr. Lauderdale…read morewhere we can catch up over some cocktails on a weekday night. Sidecar Speakeasy was the play... The speakeasy entrance was hidden in a hallway you can walk right by without even noticing. I dig it. Once inside, it's dark. Most of the light is coming from the light showcasing the bottles in the bar. The seating is a little tight as they're trying to maximize space for such a small area. We visited here twice during my visit: We sat at a table and a bar. You have the perfect amount of space for your party, but you're pretty close to the next table or bar seat. No claustrophobic vibes though. All the mixologists were great during both visits. One visit, we ordered their signature cocktails from the menu. When we sat at the bar, we had the mixologist surprise with a cocktail off the menu. He just asked what kind of liquor vibe we wanted, and he took it from there. He was super creative with every cocktail which made for a great time. They stayed upon until midnight one one visit and until 1 am on the other one. Both my visits were on a weekday. The sidecar speakeasy is easily my favorite bar in Fort Lauderdale and I have a feeling I'll be back. Enjoy!
