Babylon

Looooove this place!!! –insert flamboyant hand gestures here–
Seriously, it’s my fave gay bar (I’m straight). It’s a lot of fun and it’s got a good crowd. I love the setup and of course, who wouldn’t like the dance cage?
Despite the fact that I almost got beat up by a jealous drag queen who was über fabulous and may or may not have been the real Cher, this never fails to be super fun!

Babylon is only the second ‘gay bar’ I’ve ever been to, and I usually enjoy it.
I appreciate the multiple levels with 2 bars, a dance area (with cage), a smoking patio, and the bathrooms are conveniently located.
Babylon is definitely focused on a dancing atmosphere with a nod towards the ‘chill” atmosphere. Basically if you aren’t dancing, you’re getting drinks or catching your breath with your friends. The sound system actually is really great too.
One thing I could ask that Babs improves on is the music selection. I consider myself somewhat a regular and usually am displeased with the music. For instance the trend that I’ve noticed on the dance floor is that Fridays is slower rap with a hard beat, and saturdays is faster techno with a lighter beat. On multiple occasions I’ve asked the DJ on saturday nights to play «Let’s have a Kiki» by the scissor sisters, and he always says he will but never does. I think it would be beneficial if the DJ threw in a few more ‘popular’ dance songs/​artists (pop artist kings & queens with maybe some European artists like Robyn) in, just so the dance floor can be more familiar with what’s going on.
I pretty much always get my drinks made by Scotty at the upstairs bar, and have never been disappointed.
I’ve been there for karaōke on Friday nights before, and The only request I have for that is just more newer songs to draw in a younger audience.
Definitely will go back again and again, so thanks for everything!
Stay golden!
