What we say

Friendly and laid back hangout with regular drag shows
This fun and friendly pub features great food and special events every night. The atmosphere is campy, with a tropical themed patio and a completely unpretentious crowd. Be sure to catch the famous Armorettes on Sunday nights.

***** If you're looking for the old ...
Guest Reviewer - March 16, 2009
If you're looking for the old biker bar at Ansley Square, it closed in 1988 and has since been replaced by Burkhart's. It's not a "strike a pose" bar; this is one of the most unpretentious gay bars in Atlanta. It's a very comfortable place to hang out, have a drink, and play some pool if you like. The boys here are approachable and laid-back, and on Sundays the legendary Armorettes will make you laugh until you can't take it anymore. Other nights you can sing karaoke or even grab a full dinner.

Insider Tip: Burkhart's patio sprawls across the entire back side of the bar. It's also intimate enough to allow you to step back and disappear into the shadows if you want.

***** Friendly and we do mean FRIENDLY
Posted: October 28, 2009
This is what a gay bar is all about. GREAT owners! Great Staff (except for the ones that smoke while bartendering) GREAT customers who are super friendly! We ALWAYS have a great time at this bar. They have several bars, downstairs as well as upstairs. And good food! Whatever you are into, you can find it at this bar. Can't believe how FRIENDLY everybody was. Actually it is the friendliest bar that we have ever been to. They just need to have their bartenders STOP SMOKING WHILE THEY ARE WAITING ON CUSTOMERS!

***** Rude!
Posted: June 11, 2009
My work friends and I went here on a Monday night for a relaxing drink. We went inside and sat at a table, while one of us went to the bar to get our drinks. He was told rather rudely by a smoking bartender that we couldn't get drinks there, we had to sit down and wait for a waiter to come take our order. The waiter (cute but a little slow) came to the table once to take our order, then had to come back 10 minutes later with a pad & pen because he'd forgotten it. The drinks were okay, but our table was under an AC unit that blew on us the whole time, and it smelled like the place had been freshly varnished. We paid and left, thankful to get out of that dark place. We went across the lot to Felix's and had a better time, better drinks, and were treated better by the helpful staff and patrons.
