Leather Stallion Saloon

As mentioned the oldest Leather and Levi bar in Cleveland. Despite the whispers of ~scary Leathermen~ and the like, I’ve always enjoyed my experiences here. Definitely a Gay Bar out of the time when that meant something. A Cleveland original in many ways. Home to the Unicorns and Rangers Uniform Club. EDIT: Know your Hanky Code, folks still do that at times here and it’s usually fun.
The local Leather titles are held here, so you have your Mr. Cleveland Leather, Ms. Cleveland Leather, Cleveland Puppy, etc.
Drinks are well priced and the atmosphere depends on where you are in the bar. The patio is fun in summer, and the various title contests bring a nice crowd.

Located on St. Clair (more appropriately St. Sleaze Street), the Leather Stallion is the old standby bar of the gay Leathermen/​levy crowd. It’s been home base to a few of the gay motorcycle clubs like the Unicorns and a general watering hole for the «bear,» s&m, bdsm crowd for many years. But, as with most bars of this type, gradually slipping out of fashion and style with the younger uninitiated set.
You don’t enter through the front door. Instead you proceed down a small alleyway entering through a side door or, at times, going to the end of the alleyway there is an open entrance directly onto a large outdoor patio area.
The Leather Stallion is generally a fun place to visit even if you aren’t a part of the Leather crowd. Indeed, it is now home bar for a good number of gay leather queen or leather lite wannabe types discovering their way through the leather circuit of life.
The place opens daily at 4:00pm regardless that the front door says 3:00pm. On weekends they used to have great, really fun type barbecues (technically grilling) with offerings of hamburgers. Leave it to some leather queen to be unable to get the signs coordinated for nearly a decade.
The patio area is large with yet a patio bar out back. There are plenty of tables and in the patio and because of the ivy shrouded walls surrounding the patio area, has a very pleasant outdoorsy type of ambiance to it.
The inside area has a lobby of sorts and you step down into the main bar. Most of the patrons are fun loving, pleased to meet newcomers and enter into conversation.
The place has been here seemingly forever, and because it is rather popular I am amazed that I am the first to review it.
