“Cruzin 7th - was a fantastic place!”
I visited on the weekend of August 24 and 25 and caught the drag show both nights. If you're the type who likes to look at trans women, you'll love it—I've never seen so many beautiful trans girls in one spot. The only downside was that most of them seemed stuck-up, except for one slim, sexy cutie. I think her name was Tina. She was incredibly friendly and sweet, a genuine and down-to-earth angel. I made the mistake of not pursuing her, and now I regret it. If she ever reads this, I hope she reaches out to me.

“The Tranny Bar!”
It's the classic gay bar—campy, seedy, very gay, and dark. It feels more authentic than other places that try to be something they're not. There's a show stage on one side and pole stages on the other. The disco vibe is strong, along with fresh meat, leather men, and cheap drinks. A good time with no pretensions.

“Dive”
Honestly, I doubt any self-respecting demolition crew would bother tearing this bar down. The drinks are reasonably priced, but that's expected from a dive like this. If you enjoy unattractive trans women with attitudes, unwashed customers, and low-rent hustlers, this is the place for you.

“This TGirl always feels at home there....”
I always meet someone nice here. Cruisin' 7th is a relaxed, fun spot for trans women, their admirers, and anyone else who wants to stop by.
