    Low-key neighborhood gay bar with a beautiful, year-round outdoor space. Order the Skittles Shot! Awesome jukebox.

    Very friendly bartenders, super garden space and deck out back for warmer months. Great selection of single malt whiskeys

    After 15 years at this location, Excelsior closed on Aug 3, 2014. Good news: they plan to re-open at a new location soon. Stay tuned!

    THE BEST bar to just go and chill for a bit. BEST bartenders anywhere. Great drinks, great prices (to me). Go!

    The bartenders are some of the best in the city, and the patio and garden are an awesome place to chill out. :-)
