The Cuff Complex

great appreciation

I love the Cuff. It's got great space for just about everyone's interests. Awesome bartenders, pool, three bars, awesome bartenders, huge dance floor, great music, awesome bartenders, drinks are cheaper than most gay bars. Go there often enough and you don't even have to give them your order, just nod. I'm a dance floor junkie and have the best time. Where else can you go in Seattle and have this much fun?

BETTER THAN I HAD HOPED

I found the first barman I spoke to quite delightfully friendly. The others did not lessen my positive impression. This place is not for everyone but it attracts a balanced crowd, up and down the ages. Lively and welcoming. Very satisfactory, all in all.

Place was ok...

Seemed to be a place people liked to go of all likes but it just seemed like a roller skating rink dancefloor without proper club lighting... and the staff were not too friendly to non-regulars.

Not a leather bar

The Cuff is Seattle's most popular "general purpose" bar. If you're visiting from out of town, this is your best bet. On any given Fri or Sat it's the bar you're most likely to find a crowd. The cocktails are big and strong, and the beer selection is good. It's NOT a leather bar. Yes, there are a few leather guys, but that's because there's some of everything. Lately there are more twinkies than ever, and unfortunately the straight girls have discovered it in big numbers too (encouraged by their twinkie friends). If you don't want to stand in line, get there before 10:30. Their parking lot is small so if you need street parking, get there by 10:00 or even earlier.

I like this place its friendly, great staff, the security go out of their way to make everyone feel welcome. The Dancing security guy is HOT.
