The best unknown bar in Modesto. Don’t be thrown by the neighborhood. It’s a classic. Drag on Sunday nights is not to be missed!!

When I say hidden treasure I mean exactly that… For years I’ve heard of the Brave Bull, but never had courage to go in alone until this last night. And I’m so happy I did! I’ve passed by it a million times and based on...Read More

Picked up people from here before, and they were immature. Childish clientele, literally. I actively try to avoid this place.
Atmosphere: 1Picked up underage people from there, so yeah, you could say they're kid-friendly.

Went with some coworkers after a long serving shift and honestly the staff were immaculate! When I say service with a smile is an understatement!? One of the bartenders said they didn’t do it for the money, and I believe it! Just found out today...Read More

Great place to go and have fun. It is a gay bar but it's more like a club setting and you can go there and have fun and dance the night away

Went here to have a good time and was met with some of the worst service I've ever experienced in my life. The door person was drunk and rude. The drinks were watered down and let's just say a child could make drinks cleaner and...Read More

I hear a lot of storied about this place, but when you go you find out that it's really cool! And historic! This place is great for winding down with its pool tables and the bartenders are always a good conversation away. This place...Read More

Cover 10-15$ exspensive for a weak show. Do not put card on tab lady will jack your prices and charge you way more than supposed to. Its obvious happens every time. But regardless if you get the man bartender other places do charge way less......Read More

The events that have transpired over the past few weeks at this bar are appalling. The staff members who have been involved in this situation have handled disagreements like children by having loud discussions in front of guests making the ambient uncomfortable and unwelcoming. There...Read More

Love the bartender, arcade machines, the karaoke and open mic nights, but I tried checking if they were open since Christmas but they’ve been closed. I couldn’t find any information or updates about their new schedule on Facebook or anything.

Always a fun time and great people. I've been to the Spanish drag shows and enjoyed very much. My first time to the English one and still had a blast!
