About this venue

Classic Davie Village gay gastropub with brunch, generous pub food, 17 draft lines, daily specials, and one of the neighborhood's best people-watching patios. It is where a quiet afternoon beer can acquire a cast, a subplot, and several opinions.

Venue intelligence

Know before you go

Typical queue

Table entry is remarkably swift during afternoon happy hours, but the venue hits a heavy bottleneck on sunny weekends and warm summer nights. Expect a 15 to 45 minute wait to bag a coveted spot on the famous street-side patio during peak hours.

Best night

Mondays are a massive local hit for their legendary high-energy Karaoke nights hosted by local legends. Alternatively, drop by between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM on weekdays to score their chill happy hour food and drink promotions.

Locals vs visitors

A beautifully seamless, multi-generational mosaic. You will grab a pint alongside local gay rugby and volleyball teams, neighborhood regulars, baby dykes, teetering drag icons, and open-minded straight allies who just appreciate phenomenal patio vibes and great pub grub.

Dress code in practice

Unapologetically casual and cozy. Rock up in standard neighborhood sportswear, simple denim, oversized hoodies, or your casual everyday streetwear.

Staff inclusion

Proudly rated as a dedicated, foundational transgender safe space and highly protective LGBTQ+ hub. The longtime venue features an exceptionally warm, famously friendly bar crew known for looking out for community safety and making international travelers feel instantly like family.
