The Cock Formerly: The Hole

(76 Ratings)
Long-standing gay bar

The old "Cock" was all about sleaze and its large downstairs darkroom. This newer location keeps that tradition alive, albeit a bit tamer this time around...

Trashy and fun

First time i went to the cock was gay pride 2012. When i walked in i've never seen anything like it.. There's a shower curtain when you walk in, it's completely pitch black. They used to have a dark room in the back where people would hook up but i think they took it down. Literally everyone was groping each other and even the go go boys were getting some ass. At first i didn't know what to think but it's a good experience -- the music is great and the people are usually sane and cool. There's always gonna be those 1 or 2 creeps walking around. I've been there a couple times afterwards and had a few laughs with friends and if you are looking to get some .. just go here on a weekend night.
