Sidelines Sports Bar and Billiards

(75 Ratings)
The Carolinas’ only gay sports bar

A sports bar that's intentionally LGBTQ inclusive? Say less!

But really, Sidelines is one-of-a-kind in the greater area, offering a chill, classic bar experience with darts, pool tables, giant jenga, an enormous selection of craft beers, and a wide variety of sports. The staff here treats you like family, creating a welcoming space to relax and hang out, whether you're practicing your pool shots solo, or beer-tasting with a group of friends.

skip it

A dirty (not in a good way) dank, stale bar. They charge a cover. Hell knows why. There is nothing worth seeing here. One should have no reason to ever go here.

Coming to town

I will be in town this Thursday and Friday night and was wondering where the 20s crowd goes? I thought this may be an option but now maybe not?

so disappointed

The reviews were good so me and my man went to check it out. It was a dirty smelly hole in the wall. Weak drinks and foul looking crowd. If it wasn't for the attitude on some of the giruly boys I would've sworn we were at a straight place. The bartenders were not hot like some have commented. Not that that really matters, but all the good reviews set us up for a very disapointing time. Does the owner write them or something? We're from DC, but I wasn't expecting such a backwoods place. Lame, lame, lame.
