The Uptown Lounge

Sobre este lugar The Uptown Lounge

The Uptown Lounge on Broadway Boulevard serves the 39th Street corridor's neighbourhood bar need — a more intimate and conversation-friendly complement to the larger-format programming of Missie B's nearby. The bar has the qualities that define the best gay neighbourhood bars: a loyal regular clientele, affordable drinks, and the kind of relaxed and genuine atmosphere that develops in a bar that has been serving its community for years without trying to be anything other than what it is. Broadway Boulevard puts the Uptown Lounge between the 39th Street strip and the Westport entertainment district, and the bar draws from both directions: regulars from the surrounding residential neighbourhoods who walk over for a weeknight drink, and visitors who started at Missie B's and are looking for a second stop that offers a different energy. The crowd is the local gay community in its most authentic and unpretentious form, and the bar's value — good drinks at reasonable prices in a welcoming space — is the value that the gay neighbourhood bar has always provided.
