7 reviews for The Buffalo
Hey hey hey, this place is one of my favorites!
Why??
I don't know!
There's something special about old run down bars that gets to me.
4 Stars for what it is.
If you're from LA, just imagine a bigger Trunks.
Why I like this place:
- People are relaxed, down to earth and less pretentious. It's easy to start a conversation
- This place never closes, there is something going on even at 6am!
- It has pool tables (most pool cues are broken though)
- Nice background music
- Good, strong, cheep drinks!
- Older Bartender is nice, although don't start on the wrong foot!
Don't expect much of this place, but you will be very thankful for it at 3am when everything else dies!
It's the perfect place to socialize with locals (who get a lil gossipy & have their own lil dramas within the small vegas circle).
If you feel naughty, not finding anybody to "chill" with at piranha, The Buffalo will be your last stop so calculate your moves right or you'll stay stuck on http://gay.com or worst.
Your right hand!
So this place is great for young twinks who wanna get laid tonight or 70 year old transvestites who resembles a red neck with lipstick who are so drunk, they drool on the bar while struggling to get the next quarter into the slot machine which they spend their entire social security stamps on!
Or if you just a visitor who wanna experience more of the local gay night scene.
It has plenty of parking, juke box, and darts!
No credit cards! Just ATM on the side.
Buffalo is the reflection of real vegas life, it is nasty, dirty, exciting & adventures!
You gotta be a special person to like those kinda of things.
The Buffalo is the real deal, love it or hate it.
Yalla Bye!
I went Saturday night after midnight and there were 8 people there. Something was going on over by the pool table and the bartender was surrley..
Pro:
Nice door guy
No cover
Con:
no peeps on a Saturday night
This bar is right around the corner from the Double Down and has pinball, pool, and some pretty awesome music, at least the couple times I've been there. Funny thing is every time I've been here, I ALWAYS run into people I know from other states who I haven't seen if forever. It's sort of like the Eagle Tavern in Seattle or the Lone Star in San Francisco if you need a reference to better known places in larger cities.
As a SF Bay Area guy... this Las Vegas bar is a cross between 440, Moby's, the Eagle, and the Lone Star (bars in SF)... But the guys here are much nicer and friendlier, and you get to meet an interesting group of gay guys from across america of all walks of life.
Between gulps and sips of beer, I met a guy who used to be in prison, a hot daddy stage actor from manhattan, a kindergarten teacher from winnipeg, a hot southwestern pai gow dealer, and a vegas bartender. What a cool place to grab a beer, chat it up, play pool, and get a break from the madness of vegas.
good atmosphere, nice dudes, no attitude, and a good time.
Las Vegas is easily one of the gayest cities in America. G to tha A to tha Y to tha L-I-C-I-O-U-S. World-class retail, billion dollar casinos and Barry Manilow? I get hard just thinking about it.
Why, then, is gay nightlife in Vegas literally non-existent? Sure, there's the Fruit Loop but this place is a parody of itself. The place is located on a strip mall. Silly owners. They should know the gays don't do strip malls.
The Buffalo is a godsend. It's one of the diviest bars I've ever been to, gay or straight. There's only dinky bathroom with a single stall. The place is filled with aging posters and stickers depicting some of the freakiest bears in S&M outfits that gave me nightmares for at least a week. While most of the clientele is guaranteed to be over 38, it really is a pretty awesome place. That is, despite the obligatory Madonna and Toni Braxton music videos.
I spent a good four hours here and consumed more booze than an aging cougar with new tits and matching liver. I was obviously fresh meat at this bar and was treated to a constant parade of beers and shots. I blacked out at approximately 3 in the morning and woke up in the Luxor sans pants. That alone warrants a five-star rating.
First and foremost this place has awesome drink prices! Most gay bars in town have watered down booze thats way overpriced, not the buffalo. The place is kind of small but they have a couple full size pool tables and some good seats to kick it. We use it as a starting point before going to piranha or one of the other places close by, since the buffalo is always open and is good to get a nice buzz going. The crowed is really mixed, mostly average Joe type guys with the occasion creep, hottie, or queen that hangs out at gay bars. The bartenders are cool and don't have the attitude like a lot of the big places. Parking can be a bitch around here especially with paradise being a one way street if you get in past 11pm or so but if you drive around you will find a spot.
Vegas's only Gay Leather Bar. But, I don't think I've ever seen anyone wearing any leather in there.
Big wood tables and pool tables and the oldest bartenders in Vegas. Whooo party. See, the Buffalo is a 24 joint. It's certainly where the queer riff raff hangs out when Gipsy shuts down for the night. It's the gay after hours. Hmmmm.......after hours in a 24 hour town, Ironic, don't you think?
The Buffalo is not without it's own unique charm. And personally I've gotten into some trouble there myself. And by "trouble" I mean drunken debauchery. Whoooo party!
