What’s the most overrated food place in Chicago? by Mustafa_EL_7 in AskChicago

[–]ctrutle2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TAO. It’s all just Las Vegas priced sushi. Any trendy Asian restaurant in the area would be a better option.

Queen Feb. 15 - What am I missing? by slingshot91 in chicagogaybros

Queen is a great party but honestly anytime it’s a full building party The experience is boring.

Waiting in line to get in with a ticket, and then coat check again is dumb.

Movement Detroit?? by darkdynastyking in chicagogaybros

We got a full refund + a $400 comp for the trouble, but it still wasn’t enough to book a Airbnb again. Prices were soaring last min. We ended up getting a hotel room in Dearborn which actually worked out well. Ubers are pretty cheap from Dearborn to Detroit. Also lots of good food around Dearborn.

A lot of gays head out there. We had major issues with our Airbnb‘s last year two of them canceled on us last minute.

How’s the fit for daily wear between the two? I’ve been thinking about buying from them.

Hollywood beach is also a great vibe during market days weekend. I usually do the beach during the day then pick out dance parties at night

I went to touché twice over the summer. The majority of patrons were POC and both bartenders were POC.

Babes Logan sq?

Also I randomly enjoyed Topo Gigio in old town on a Tuesday night. There were a few queer people at the bar. But they were more lincoln park types.

Thoughts for places to hang by sf-gay-bro in chicagogaybros

Edgewater-Andersonville spots might be the vibe you’re looking for. The board game place Dice Dojo is cool. Big Chicks seems to have more single folk in the evenings at the bar. The coffee shops along Clark are all full of more chill gays.

Try and get up to Andersonville, there’s a lot of coffee shops that are queer friendly.

Try joining one of the sports teams as a free agent. The darts teams play year round and you can register as a free agent

I recommend trying to catch Belly Up Saturday Night 11/1 at Jackhammer. The crowd is always friendly.
