I absolutely adore this place! I have a ton of gay friends (and straight friends as well) who enjoy having a beer or ten with me any time of the week here.
The place is pretty slow during the week, its a nice place to get a beer and catch up with friends away from tons of people.
Over the weekend, however, its PACKED! They have jello shots sometimes, dancers, and all kinds of other goodies! The downstairs dance floor is pretty small, but the lighting is good and there are a few tables to the side to hang out in.
There's a smoking section upstairs (big plus for me as I love to kill my lungs when indulging in alcoholic beverages). They have a pretty decent (but VERY "gay bar" flamboyant) music selection and the videos play on screens all over the bar.
They have Ru Paul's Drag Race and karaoke on Monday nights (always a pleasure) and a lot of great drink specials throughout the week.
All the bartenders are great guys and gals and service fairly well (depending on the night and how busy it is, of course).
They also do a ton of special events. They have guest stars (usually drag queen shows) and a lot of fun stuff happening throughout the month. Keep in mind, some of these events do have cover charges. But the most i think I've ever paid to attend one is 7$.
My only down for this place is that they only take CASH! And the ATM charges 3$, so I suggest taking your drinking money out prior to walking in. We all know what open access to an ATM combined with being wasted can do to a persons bank account! :)
Other than that, great place, great vibe! Ill definitely be a long time regular. Straight, gay, trans, whatever! All are welcome at splash! Love it!
Well, just ok... Average cover charge and average drink prices... The crowd is too young for me... I had fun because I was with my friends, but I have to admit I felt a little bit out of place there.
There are two floors where they play different music. My favorite place is the balcony.
They play Selena. Enough said.
I am giving 3 stars just because I had a blast thanks to my friends... If i were completely objective, I would just give this place 2 stars.
