Attitude central

The place to be for those who need to be snubbed. Stand and model are the key words here. Its the cleanest and most stylish bar in Cleveland so it deserves three stars. The arrogant and self conscioulsy cool customers ruin what should be a nice experience. last time i was there four guys were at the bar and none would speak to anyone else. Two were absorbed in watching 'Modern Family' on the tv over the bar. ??? Stay home to watch your favorite tv shows. Bars are for guys to meet other guys. Ive never understood the posing and stand and model thing, even when I was younger.

take what you can get

NIce place to start your night out but don't linger too longer. The attitude can be chilly and the bartenders can be aloof. It is definitely the cleanest and coolest bar in Cleveland for gay people but don't look for cruising.

Look at me I'm beautiful!

Thats the attitude of most of the kweenz who patronize this bar. the only good point here is that you can dance without having to endure drag shows or the smell of food like at Bounce. On the down side, as many have testified, the bartenders are some of the rudest in the city- who knows why- only one of them is actually good looking. The customers are 20ish twinks and 40ish men who think wearing A&F means that they pass for 21. The barstools are strangely the most uncomfortable and ugliest bar furniture in Cleveland. Conveniently located on Clevelands main gay drag which is a blessing because its easier to quickly drive away from.

step up to the dance floor

No really step up... it's like a foot higher than the rest of the bar. i can only imagine how many people have fallen off of here. Summertime has a nice outdoor patio. rude bartenders though. A friend had to wait like 25 mins to close his tab... and they WEREN'T busy... at all! stop in MAYBE for a cocktail, maybe not.


prissy twink city

i agree twist is all about the twinks and miss prisses who are clicky and shit. racist i dont know as one of my friends is chinese and no body ever gave him a problem. maybe they jus dont like blacks i dont know for sure. but twist is only a fun time if you are young or look like justin beeber. if your a bear or fat man dont bother since no one will tak to you and bartenders will mostly ignore you.
