“HORRID BAR”

If you're into standard gay bars with nothing special, this is a good place to waste your time. If you want something different, don't bother; it's a terrible dive bar with awful techno and not a single attractive person. I traveled from Des Moines and went with my ex; it was the worst bar I've been to in years.

“Impressive.”

I travel for work and rarely find such a great gay bar. I love the different levels and rooms. There's something for everyone. Very friendly staff. Go to Max!

“Love it.”

I've only been to Max three times, but I love it. It's also special because I met my boyfriend there.

“MAX”

I was there recently as an older guy, aged 55. It's certainly a great complex. I liked all the different bars. Music was excellent. The crowd was younger but people were nice enough. There seemed to be more women than men, and a young crowd with straight couples or straight girls, which is all fine. It's nice to see such a place. Certainly worth a visit. Well done, Max.
