A Perfect Evening
This was a perfect night out! Several bars, each with friendly bartenders. The music was current and the dance floor crowded with hot men. The atmosphere was inviting, we could feel the sexual energy in the air as soon as we walked in. Will we go there again? Absolutely! Again and again!
A Blast
We hit The Heretic on a Friday night and loved it. Attractive crowd, friendly bartenders, great DJ, and a very hot dance floor. My next trip to Atlanta I'll definitely visit here again.
Wednesday Nite Special
If you are in town, you cannot possibly miss Wednesday night back room party--dress code enforced! Woof! Had a great time, good music, hot men, and friendly staff! I would recommend this bar/club to the "not so shy" type of guyz!
Once a month or so, great fun!
My boy and I go here every now and then and we rarely go home disappointed. Almost anything you're looking for can be found here: fairly good music (though it seems to be the same song set in the same order every time we go), the back room if you're adventurous, friendly bartenders, and a lot of.... theming. Its what a bar would look like in a gay amusement park.
Fun , Fun , Fun !!!
I visited the Heretic in the summer of 2002 .This was my first trip to Atlanta and I was told that the night life here was Fabulous ! My friends and I got to the bar around 11 pm on a Saturday night . When we arrived the place was packed and the music was thumping ! I was just amazed at how many nice looking men were there. We headed for the dance floor and some guy said " that needs to go " and the next thing I know ... there goes my shirt , it was great. I got separated from my friends and went looking for them . I entered this hall that had a sign that read " Hall of Shame " there was a lot of heavy breathing and touching going on and God knows what else, again it was Great ! I finally gave up looking through the crowd for my friends and just had some fun . I was surprised at how friendly everyone seemed to be . I had several guys offer to take me home , to which I explained , I'm not from here and that I was with some friends. If it wasn't for my friends and me not knowing the area , I could have had so much fun that night , but my friends got up with me and they were ready to go at 1 am ! I didn't want to leave and as I was being called to the front door by my friends , this guy that I had been talking to ,who had also offered to take me home laid this huge kiss on me and again ... it was Great ! I have never had so much fun before at a club ! I have vowed to one day return and hopefully have as much fun then, as I did that summer night in 2002. It's a night that I'll never forget !
