With cocktails at a stable $2, this Ivanhoe Village gay bar tends to be an everyone bar, especially earlier in the evening, and at those prices, it can be hard to tell when the drink specials end and the night returns to status quo. There’s a nice patio out back, but if you’re not the nature-scene type, stay inside and wiggle to the DJ mix – or watch the “Men of Savoy” go-go dancers do it for you. You don’t want to be the person who crushes Bud Lights at Savoy, so order a lemon drop. And don’t hold back that smile when the hulking bartender calls you “sweetie.”
