Best Gay Bar
Club 2520
2520 N. Oracle Road
READERS' AND STAFF PICK: Gay or not, Club 2520's energetic
atmosphere makes it one of the best alternative dance clubs in
town. This is largely due to the well-known but unutterable truth
that as a body of people, gays boogie like none other. But the
other essential ingredient is the laid-back, fun-loving atmosphere
you get when you combine country-western and disco dancing under
one roof. The large, U-shaped dance hall has two wings, with DJs
spinning foot-stompin' country on one side and high-tech disco
on the other. A long bar bridges the two in the middle, with some
of the cheapest drinks in town. The club is a good place to leave
your inhibitions at the door and shake your groove thang until
the wee hours.
