WILDROSE

Each time I go to this bar I'm a bit more disappointed. The last two times there were a bunch of men in there, even though it's a lesbian bar, therefore, ruining the entire vibe of the place and making it no longer a safe place. One of the things that upsent me the most though is I was there last night and it was going well until I went to go back inside. The girl at the front taking the money for the cover charge was talking to another employee and I smiled at her and flashed her the stamp on my wrist and kept walking in. Apparently she didn't see the stamp and instead of saying something to me like a normal person, she grabbed a fistful of my shawl as I walked by. Not even lightly. I was walking and when she grabbed it I felt it yank against me And against my throat because it was a heavy shawl that hangs off of your shoulders and neck, not an actual coat. Absolutely not okay to put your hands on people like that.

I really wish the weekend bouncer would stop making comments to the community (e.g. gay males) It's disheartening that you are reminded this isn't a "gay" bar and don't feel welcome. They have an all gender restroom and it sucks to feel like the community (myself) and many of my friends want to support Wild Rose and you are reprimanded for being an ally. The very history of inclusion and acceptance should be respected for all identities. This is the third or fourth experience I've had with the same bouncer and it really sucks to not feel included in a community that is suppose to be a safe place for people like me.

The drinks and food are great and the Wednesday trivia hosted by Brandon/RaisedbyTV is EVERYTHING! Love supporting my local lesbian bar 🫶🏻

Good vibes, feels cozy and safe... except when it gets busy and the dancing starts. The weird gawker straight men come crawling out of the sewers to leer at dykes and covertly touch their pants. Wish they were big enough to have pool tables somewhere. Also the dance playlists could include like, any lesbian artists. At all.

So cold. I went on a Tuesday night and I was freezing. Not sure if they don't have a heater or don't run it or were, but it doesn't do anything? Basic bar. Decent atmosphere. I like all the art they have up and the chairs were pretty comfortable. Decent vibe. I'd be interested to see how it was on a weekend with dancing and more people. Drinks were on the smaller side (lots of ice) but pricey.
