Predominantly white middle-aged gay mens bar located in downtown Charles village Baltimore. Customer services friendly. I dont consider Leons a cruise bar. Leon is a legendary bar. Drinks arent too great, in my opinion
If anyone knows the guy who beat the head security guard up Paris Lamar please like this post I was a witness Wednesday and the police only spoke to two white people and not everyone that security guard is always messing with someone even when they turn him down something needs to be done about it. Again if anyone knows the guy who was arrested please email me. Definitely have a lawsuit
This is the go-to dive bar for any members of the LGBTQ community. It’s always a fun and relaxed time coming here with a group of friends. Everyone is always really nice and you can strike up a conversation easily with most patrons at the bars - there’s one in the front and another in the back. I enjoy the music that plays here, the front bar normally plays current pop hits while the back bar is playing classic gay anthems. There is also some really fun karaoke nights hosted here if you are into that. Overall I would definitely recommend this to anyone that is just looking to go out and have a nice chill time sitting at a bar and chatting it up with friends and locals, it’s definitely not something along the lines of an Eagle per say.
No food but drinks are awesome! Wish there were more sober options or sober-friendly nights though.
It was very urban or black but it was great atmosphere packed for Karaoke and people it’s a big place.
Wonderful place where you can be yourself!! Great people and great drinks!
Went out for drinks with a friend on October 12 and couldnt believe how little the bartender, Sven, cared. A customer knocked over a glass and it shattered onto the floor. He made no effort to clean up the broken glass despite multiple patrons asking him to. He kept saying Ill get it after my shift. It was hardly midnight and he was just going to let a safety hazard sit there for another 2 hours. Someone could have easily gotten hurt. Thats just not acceptable
This place is going to hell. The staff is getting drunk at work. The security guard can not stop flirting with customers or threatening to hurt people. The bathrooms are dirty and full of mice and flies. I will be contacting the City of Baltimore concerning this bar. When ever someone ask for the manager the tall white guy or the security guard they are ALWAYS rude. I heard that the security guard is going yo court for putting his hands on some one. Just last night I witnessed him talking rudeness about another customer to customers. This is poor business. My friends come here when we are in town to by drinks and spending over 200 dollars in one night apiece and it’s 6 of us. This is not acceptable. The city of Baltimore will learn about this. I will also be reporting the security actions to the state governors office and security licenses professionalism board as well. I am contacting a friend to gather his information when I return to the bar today.
Leons has always been a place where the staff is friendly and you can easily strike up conversation with others around you at the bar. A very CHEERS atmosphere I would say. The drinks are always reasonably priced especially for happy hour and Ive always had a great experience here.
When we go to Leon we go there to enjoy ourselves to relax enjoy the shows and socialize with the other guests it is a peaceful atmosphere when people generally get along with each other
Fantastic bar and staff, I would recommend it to anyone who happens to be in the neighborhood!
A truly magical place where you can ask for, and get, a pint glass of dirty martini.
Great place to go with your boyfriend
Great gay dive bar.
Great Bar.......
YAAAAAAAAAASSSS
