They take tabbed out! A bit hipster, but good vibe.
Edgie hipster neighborhood bar
If you are looking for no thrills decor, where guys do guy things, and hot cocky bartenders... this is the place for you. If you like you bar to have a dance floor and your men dressed up and 100% pretty, then this place is not for you. ( Very similar to Mary's Bar in Atlanta ). I will say the bar is not a big bar... more on the neighborhood bar size. It has a 60's porn retro feel.
I call it "cozy"
I've been going to Pony since they opened the new space and while it is TINY, that kinda makes it fun. The drink beer selection is basic but tasteful and almost everything else is delightfully not. Think hooters for men who like men amplified and then concentrated in one triangle of Capital Hill. The crowd is always friendly and the patio is mostly covered; must be Seattle. Good solid gay bar.
Creative idea with porn mags... wall paper..
Owned and ran by queens...girls allowed.. no fun...yawn
Alternative Queer Bar
Not your average gay bar. If you like the alternative scene of the NW this is the place to go. No diva music. No pretty preppy boys. It's more like a raunchy wilder crowd covered with piercings and tattoos (includings bartenders and go go boys).
