Rickys Bar

The owners were so friggin nice, and so welcoming. It was a slow night but we got all the entertainment we could have asked for and had some great conversations. Need more places like this:/ love that it stays open so late!! Will def visit whenever in Victorville area.

Seemed like a good place to go. Left my cousin and his husband early. Apparently they left an hr after I did. Saw a few guys smoking inside like it was nothing. Didnt know you could do that in an establishment. They had pizza for some and the entertainment seemed nice, but too many flaws for me to come back. 1st time, but my coworkers like it. Just a no for me.Save money and buy your ticket online ahead. Dont know if they charge $20 entrance every night or just special days.

Felt unwelcomed and disrespected. Luckily I dont have any allergies or dietary restrictions, but for others....be very careful what order and drink. I dont know if I will come back, but after all where else you gonna go. Could just be the day, but you would think that they would be on top of things. Wasted $40 for nothing. Left early.Speculation, but it feels like they have a GSM blocker.

Pls more bartenders. Esp on Fridays and Thursdays. There shouldBe at least 4 of them on a busy night. NotJust 2 who waste time and skip ppl

Bunch of garbage. Watch yourself and your friends if you make the wrong decision of showing up.Great place if youre on that level of degen.

This bar for gay and lesbence ,You can smoke vibe inside bar,The dj not good ,FREE PARKING ,

Went for my first time here, came in, no one at the door , we werent checked or nothing. Purchased a drink , danced, was there for about 1 hour. The security guard comes up to me and my husband and starts harassing us and being racist against us because we are latino. He didnt stop till he kicked us out , by the time we reached the door the security guard grabbed my husband by the neck , scratched his face and literally asualt us. I will never go back to this place. Racist , discriminated us . I have never been through anything like this in the 10 years me and my husband have been together never ever have I been treated like this at a gay bar. Definitely dangerous, i could of been an under age walking in, getting intoxicated and no security poor management. Definitely law suit experience. I will never go back. This the type of staff they have working here. Becareful if you go.

This is a great bar and place to be! Very fun and great drinks and prices. Bar tenders are really nice and respectful. A great place for the LGBT community. The most exciting and fun thing of this place is the drag show held at 12 am every single Saturday! Bouncers are very nice and respectful. Before 9:00pm admission is free. I, personally, enjoy the whole atmosphere of the place. Super fun and its open for straight people too! If you havent been here, you owe it to yourself to come and enjoy the vibe! And its a drama free environment. Lets keep it that way!

My partner and I are visiting from Portland, OR for a family event and we found this bar to be the only gay bar in the area and family members were worried about our safety regarding the demographic and the area and we decided to go anyway. It was a wonderful experience, the bar had wonderful decorations that made it unique in its own way. You could tell at the bar that There was a sense of community, almost everyone we saw was hugging and laughing with each other having a good time before a drag show for the evening. The drag queens were wonderful and are worth every tip! The bar is a very open atmosphere and I recommend visiting if you’re in the area!!!!!

Dayshawna brings this place to life, AMAZING performer!! The bartenders are nice. Very reasonable prices for drinks and only $5 to watch the drag show. I had so much fun and I would recommend this establishment to anybody looking for a fun time with no drama. Thank you Rickys for such a great time

The worse bar in the hight desert. I had the worse experience of my life there.There is a white guy there with glasses and he call himself security well this guy assaulted me and discriminated me and my husband , I reached out to Management, never heard back from them. This placed needs to be shutdown!!!! Very Racist!!!!!!!!!!!!! They also serve drinks to Minors.

Great place to just go and hang out. No drama like any other place. Ricky remembers you and makes you feel welcome. Plus loads of fun on drag nights! Says its a gay bar but all kinds of people go there. Free pool. 5 bucks to watch a drag show. Food is good. This place is legit in this busted high desert with nothing to do.

The people that do karaoke there they are amazing every time I go there I end up being very sociable with everyone else people come up and talk and we just all feel right at home with each other theres not a whole lot of loud music theres breaks in between the song so that way you could talk if you do not like gay people than you might want to avoid this place because there are some that do enjoy going there themselves, Im not gay so its not a hundred percent gay bar. theres a lot of parking they do have food there and you are in a good environment at least thats what I feel

Rickys is a super friendly home town bar. Everyone is welcome! Ty is the very best KJ in the High desert. The owners are incredibly loving and accommodating. The bartenders are friendly and fun. I really love this place and all the regulars that make it feel like the place to be. :D

So when i first was going to rickys it was not that good. Very few bartenders seemed to know what they were doing. Then i went recently and they made so many improvements. Ricky himself made me drinks and they were amazing. The whole experience became so great. I played pool there was a really good drag show and it was a fun environment to be in. Thank you ricky for making the place such a great place to hang out and have really great drinks you are the best. Next time i visit California i hope to see you again!

Im a straight male who went there with friends and enjoyed myself had a few drinks met two straight females, talked to the performers in the parking lot. Fun atmosphere great people, I support the community theres nothing wrong or different about the various communities and genders Im straight have 4 kids, I want to take my girlfriend and female friend here to experience the great socialable people of this bar and atmosphere

Went last night to cheer for an acquaintance who was performing. Place was busier than Id ever seen it, and the show was fun.But, Karen the bartender has absolutely no idea how to make the simplest cocktail.I asked her if she could make a Manhattan, which is a truly simple cocktail that every bartender should know: rye, vermouth, and bitters, served up (aka chilled by stirring with ice and then strained into a cocktail glass), usually garnished with a cherry.I knew I was in for a wild ride when she asked if I wanted some sort of cherry flavored bourbon, so I decided to go along for the ride, and see what she served me....It turned out to be something almost, but not quite, entirely unlike a Manhattan.She started by muddling two maraschino cherries and two under-ripe orange wedges in a rocks glass, adding a couple dashes of bitters, filling the glass with ice, and adding a jigger of cherry bourbon. Then, she topped it off with sweet and sour mix and grenadine, and garnished with another orange wedge.The only thing this drink had in common with what I ordered was the fact that she added bitters. Instead of a clean, slightly spicy drink served up, I got an overly sweet concoction with muddy fruit flavors on the rocks.I have no idea what it should be called (other than a waste of money), but it definitely wasnt even close to a Manhattan.

We (my wife and I) wanted to get out in our new town of Victorville, so we went to Ricky’s. I’m a artsy lesbian from NYC, so my point of reference would never compare to what I’m used to, but for the high desert it was more than fine and Ive lived or visited many major cities in the US and several other countries to recognize a decent place for a LBGT person to go.There was karaoke that night. They have a large selection of songs and that night there were plenty of decent singers. The only unpleasant thing was that the DJ or MC was preferential to certain or most male patrons, allowing them to sing 2-3 songs, each go around, several times throughout the night. This didn’t allow for a feeling of inclusion for women or us since we were new and hadn’t been there before. We only submitted 4 songs between us, and waited all night for the 4th song, which we never got to sing; while the same people kept singing again and again. This was a bit annoying, but not tragic- LOL!The pizza was very tasty, and the female blonde bartender was sweet and attentive.It’s clean with 2 pool tables, (free with a drink), has a decent decor for a small neighborhood bar; and lastly, the atmosphere was definitely friendly enough and yes, we would go again...

I absolutely love this place! The drag queens and drag kings are absolutely amazing! Staff is welcoming and remembers regulars. Bartender Dakota is also a great character to have at the establishment!

Karrn is simply the best, she makes the best drinks and her talk is always super legit, she should get a raise ASAP!! I will absolutely come back

A typical dive bar. The bartender on duty wasnt very good, serving drinks in the wrong glasses, and really heavy pouring, and he kept going out for smoke breaks. He tended to pay more attention to the young, pretty customers than everyone else.

I dont know why the hell you would charge for water in a place you dance and be active? That seems kind of messed up if you ask me but besides that, its still a nice place. Nice DJ and excellent shows.

Any time I go with my 18 yrs old there we have a good time the only thing I say its hot in there and the bathrooms could use a little TLC

The drag show quality is very poor. The dj was playing SelenaReally dude. And theres an annoying ass employee trying to hustle the pool table. Very lame.

It’s very small and the gay crowd is very raunchy didn’t care for the place but being as it’s the only gay bar in the whole high desert it’s not to bad . The bar tenders are very nice the kj’s kinda suck but they have been improving

They took our drink two night in a row way before 1:30. First time we were at the table, second time, we were outside smoking and we left for l only five minutes.

Absolutely amazing came into town 1st time and was greeted with a smile had A-blast Sunday nights DJ was super good cant wait to be back thank you so much for an amazing time!!

Our go-to local hangout!! Great folks, super KJ Ty and Ricky & Mike (owners) are awesome. Bartenders rock and its always a fun time.

I love this place I had a great time very cool and fun people. Great entertainment on Friday nights also if your into drag shows

Everyone is nice & fun. Good customer service when Karen is there. But Ricky is the most disrespectful person Ive ever met

Always friendly bartenders and sometimes friendly clientele. Always a pleasant experience though. They also have good food.

Disgusting! Im a vegetarian and I ordered the guacamole burger AND IT HAD CHICKEN IN IT which they did not mention. Its so wrong im never going back to this place ew

Usually come here often, very friendly bartenders. They have 2 pool tables and I play usually during the week while having a drink.

The male bartender helped everyone around me, and didnt look at me once, I think his name is Terrance. Not impressed
