Duck Island Club

A little bit of heaven far away from the Flats' "Purple Hooter shot" crowd.. The Scene
This bar may seem foreboding outside, but within it's a cozy enclave that takes patrons back to a simpler, more genteel time. The low light emitted by Tiffany-style lamps, beautiful dark woodwork and davenports that seem to whisper "mint julep" lend the space a feeling of tranquility.

The Draw
The people warming the stools and pouring the drinks are equally welcoming. This gay bar attracting both men and women is equally inviting for straight folks. An air of good humor and camaraderie resonates throughout the place, from the stools up front to the comely back room and patio. There's Dortmunder Gold and Bass on tap, as well as familiar selections in bottles. The bar's large selection of spirits and wines will make even the most finicky swiller tip his hat to the bartender and settle in for a long, contented evening.…
