Don't go here. This place is putting drugs in people's drinks. One man has been missing for almost 2 weeks. Two weeks tomorrow he has been missing. Something is not right with this bar. Please do not get drinks from this bar.

When I last visited 316, the owner was racist to my Asian best friend, was rude as hell to all of us, and literally told us to get out when we got mad at him for being racist.The other bartenders seemed to just accept that this is how he is, though otherwise they seemed nice and friendly enough. The crowd was fine, and the decoration and atmosphere was actually exactly what we were looking for - but that owner! We left and never came back.

The place was very creepy, especially the men and DJ. The drinks were overpriced and tasted old/skunky.

Good place to get something/ chips etc to drink & to pick up hot stuff. I word my worn jockstrap under my pants. It was appreciated.Kid-friendliness: Talk. Have a good expression on your face. Dont let other unhappy expressions change yours.

Used to be a fun place to go back in college 2016-2018. Now it’s terrible. They always double charge or swipe your card multiple times, my drink was spiked, and overall the quality of service has gone down hill. Such a shame.

Better time spent at a bar that’s for the lgbt community and ALL its members of ALL races. Honestly can’t believe this bar has been open as long as it has.

The owner is trash! Glad to see the reviews of this bar reflect my experience and that it wasn’t just me. Went once and will never step foot inside again! Don’t waste your time.

You can see the ownership issues from the reviews below. I truly wish ownership would be handed over to someone with morals and respect for the community. We don't have many LGBTQ+ bars in Charlotte but I won't go here until someone else owns it. Current owner will try to charge your card for almost triple your tab if left open. Just an overall bad business and I hope they can right their wrongs.
