Venue intelligence
Know before you go
Typical queue
Extremely seamless on standard weekdays or afternoon slots. However, a tight bottleneck forms outside along Santa Fe Drive between 11:00 PM and 1:00 AM on Thursdays (Underwear Nights) and Saturdays, creating a fast-moving 15 to 30-minute line as the club interior approaches full capacity.
Best night
Thursdays are an absolute community legend for their raw, dirty "Underwear Nights" featuring massive drink specials. Alternatively, Saturdays deliver maximum crowd density for their high-velocity "Beer Busts" and massive traveling parties like MEGAWOOF and Back Alley Weekend.
Locals vs visitors
Natively built as Denver's premier gay fetish and leather sanctuary, the crowd remains heavily male, bear, and subculture-focused.
Dress code in practice
Anything goes, but subverting the norm is actively encouraged. While casual streetwear fits right in for a casual afternoon pint, weekend nights demandgear—think leather harnesses, gear, rubber, jockstraps, or just stripping down to your briefs for themed events.
Staff inclusion
Owners Chris and Ray have structurally trained their bartending staff and door managers to greet every patron with highly attentive, smiling hospitality.
