ID check and coat check are always unpleasant experiences here. Your id has to be checked by not one, but two people, one outside the door and another inside - very inefficient and tedious. In general when there's a long line, it's poorly managed as you can see 10+ people leave but the door guy still waits several minutes to let the next people in. Seems to be especially bad on really cold nights, which are great for keeping your line of customers waiting extra long. Then coat check charges $3 per item, and if you have two layers, like a sweatshirt you wear with a light jacket, you will be charged $3 for each, even though combined they are the same thickness as a heavier jacket and can easily fit on a hanger together. And don't expect the grouchy coat check lady to be polite about it when she informs you while insisting you take a photo of your coat check ticket with your phone and show them again later. What if someone doesn't have a working smart phone or doesn't want to use their storage for a photo? Very overbearing policy. Drinks from the bar are tiny here - complete ripoff. The back patio is bland. Men's restroom/urinal area is very cramped. They don't let anyone inside the bar after 1:00am even though they're open until 2.

Don't be a black woman, you will be served last (this is on a club night)To be clear, not looking to be served first (unless I clearly get there first). Just not expecting to feel like the bartenders hate black womenMusic was better than expected tho!!If you're a white gay, you'll have a great time. If you're a black queer femme... ?

Went there when it was a club, and had a great time. Wonderful local place to go out without feeling like you have to “go out”

I had the best time! From the minute we walked in the door, the staff was so accommodating (we showed up with two suitcases as we had a flight out later in the day!) The drinks were quick, the food was delicious, the queens were amazing (and even stayed after to chat with us!). The manager checked on us, and everyone was so nice. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

We went for Sunday Brunch and it was the 4th Sunday of the month and there wasn't Supposed to be a Drag show but there was. It made it difficult to talk to each other so we left

I'm so happy I found Blend! I had a delayed hair appointment and went to Blend to get something to eat while I wait. I got there just when it opened so I was the first person there. Such a dope spot and very big! I got the mozz sticks which were the typical delish app. I also ordered a Cobb salad which was so g. Not only was the food and ambience super cute. Jillian and James really gave awesome options for food and drinks. They have drag brunches on Sunday and I plan on going soon!

It's a nice place, the staff is friendly and drinks are good. However for lgbtq ladies, it was pretty much just packed with men.

This place has great servers and amazing food. We walked in and we're a little worried, it looks like a really fun dance club, and we were looking for good food. But the drinks were fire, the tempura broccoli was to die for, Mac and cheese on point and the chicken Caesar wrap was the best I've had for a long time. We felt incredibly safe and welcomed there. Support this business at all costs, their food is phenomenal!

Our server, Anthony, was phenomenal. He had excellent recommendations and updated us on great days and times to come back for events. The forbidden rice with salmon was out of this world!

Great service, atmosphere and food/drinks! The staff is the best! The drag brunches are always a blast and is a great place to go late night out dancing with friends!

I left with a sour taste in my mouth due to their unacceptable tap water policy. While the overall experience was satisfactory, the fact that the bartender refused to provide tap water for free is simply unacceptable.The provision of tap water is a basic expectation in any establishment. It is a fundamental necessity and a gesture of common decency towards customers. Denying access to tap water sends a message that profit takes precedence over customer well-being.I believe every customer, regardless of their beverage preferences or budget, should have access to free tap water. It is a matter of fairness, inclusivity, and respect. Offering tap water as a standard practice should be a fundamental aspect of any establishment's hospitality and customer service.I urge Blend to reconsider their policy and recognize the importance of providing tap water free of charge. By doing so, they can demonstrate their commitment to customer satisfaction and ensure a positive and welcoming experience for all patrons.It is my hope that this feedback is taken seriously, and appropriate steps are taken to rectify this glaring issue. Otherwise, I cannot wholeheartedly recommend Blend to others who value basic customer needs.
