When you go to The Blue Whale, you're literally stepping into a piece of gay history. For…read moregenerations, it's been the Cheers of Fire Island. There are so many stories tied to this place, including its role in the beginnings of the Fire Island Invasion. It's one of those spots that actually means something to the community. I come to Fire Island every year with my friends, and while I've never tried the food, that's honestly not why people come here. Everyone shows up for low tea, which is basically happy hour starting at 4 PM. It starts picking up around 6, and that's when it hits. You'll see every gay from NYC who's on the island for the week, the weekend, or even just the day. The best part about tea here is that it's your first real look at who's around. It's super social and makes it easy to connect with people. If you're going with a group, lean into it and do a themed tea with coordinated outfits. Nothing is too corny or off-limits. That's part of the Fire Island tradition. They also host drag shows during the week with Bubbles, which are always a good time. And you really never know who you'll run into. Over the years I've seen Milk, Billy Porter, Andy Cohen, and a bunch of Broadway people just casually there. Of course, you have to get the punch. It's a mix of multiple liquors and juices, and somehow no one ever finishes more than one. If you do, just know you're signing up for a brutal hangover. Only downside is how packed it gets during tea. It can take a minute to get a drink, so just go in expecting a little bit of a wait.

Really nice atmosphere. The brunch menu is a little small, but the options are pretty good. My…read morefriends and I got a carafe of mimosas, they were $42 so not bad. There's basically a full bottle of prosecco and triple sec in it, so extremely strong for a good price. My brunch burger was pretty good, the burger was a little over cooked but overall good. The garlic fries are fabulously seasoned and very crispy so I loved them.

With gay bars rapidly disappearing across America, Troupe stands out as a vibrant hub in the Fairfield County LGBTQ+ scene. The owners pour their heart and soul into every aspect of the bar including the programming, music, and atmosphere, and it really shows. The bartenders are warm, welcoming, and genuinely seem to love what they do. From drag shows and burlesque performances to seasonal drink specials, themed parties, and go-go shows, there's always something happening. Troupe quickly became my go-to spot after discovering it one week into living in CT and I'm so grateful for its existence. Huge shoutout to Casey and Nicholas for the love and tireless work they put into making Troupe429 what it is today--and of course to Johnny, who mixes the meanest elderflower gin and tonic in town.
