Cardinal Bar (Closed Permanently)

(7 Ratings)
Recently reborn long standing dance club
The Cardinal Bar opened as a club in 1974 and ran as such for 30 years before the owner sold it in 2004. That venture proved fruitless, and the original owner re-opened the space in late 2009 much to the joy of locals and fans alike. It's been expanded and is now ready for dancing the night away.

Not really that gay

Good drinks, bartender had bad attitude and it doesnt appear that this is a gay/lesbian bar?? Not a bad place though all together.
