About

Bar: Full barBest nights: Thu, Fri, Sat

Dim lighting and a campy atmosphere greet you here, not the leather bar the name suggests. The Tool Box is a casual neighborhood gay bar with friendly servers and a full bar, open daily from 2pm to 2am.

It's the perfect place to unwind before heading next door to The Briar Patch for dancing. Regulars appreciate the outdoor seating when weather permits, and Thursday through Saturday are the busiest nights.

“kitschy camp”

It's a small, dimly lit bar, but not what I anticipated given the name. I assumed it would be a leather bar, but it turned out to be more campy.
