The Real Luck Cafe

The Real Luck Cafe, or Lucky's, is a weird little dive gay bar down on Penn Avenue. It’s near downtown, but still in the strip. The building is old  and marked by an unlit, duct-taped shamrock sign outside. You have to go around to a side door to get in, so it automatically seems sketchy.

Once you're inside, it's less sketchy, but just as divey. The downstairs bar isn't decorated much and has an old diner vibe to it. On a Monday night, we were the only people in the bar. The bartender wasn't what you would call friendly, but got us our drinks and they were cheap enough. There was popcorn on the bar and free wings on a side table, but I don't know if I would actually eat anything there. It's definitely still a dirty dive bar.

The upstairs bar has DJs and "Hot Male Nude Dancers" on most nights. On a dead Monday though, there were no naked men on the bar. It was just us, a bored bartender, and Mike and Molly on the TV.
