The Pumping Station
Darts, pool, and explicit videos have been after-hours pursuits at this discrete Midtown haunt for more than 20 years. There’s also a seriously dangerous-looking treehouse on the patio out back, should you be feeling (f)risky. A strictly gay-male bar, it’s known for catering to a slightly more mature crowd—which doesn’t mean it’s always low-key. Sure, “Pups on the Patio” is pretty chill, but “Leather & Gear” or “Underwear” nights? All bets are off. Tip: You can park in the Kroger lot next door.
