Fun place to dance

The Saloon is a great place to spend some stored up energy! My friend and I always dance our butts off for hours since the Dance music is pretty good.

The best gay bar in Minneapolis

I love this bar. The drinks are strong. The boys are cute. The crowd is mainly under 30, but if you are fun, older is welcome as well. Friday and Saturday nights after midnight, the dance floor fills with hot guys ready to get their groove on. See John or Brock at the video bar for a drink that is stronger then you'll see at any straight club. Friday night the gogo boys get naked in the now famous "shower", you gotta check it out.

Best gay bar/dance club in minneapolis!!!!

I have been all over the world but there is nothing like Midwestern boys and the saloon is the place to find them. . . It has a a younger group with plenty of eye candy. The bartenders are fucking gorgeous and so nice. Brad in the front bar is my favorite because he is always smiling, shakes your hand and comes up with great drinks on the spot. The security could use a little work but are generally nice. All in all, if you want a young hip crowd, strong drinks, good music, and great bartenders the saloon is your place.
