You will find a variety of customers including college students looking to save a buck on booze or some locals lookin' to get their game on. I always enjoyed their 'dollar domestic' nights where any domestic bottle of beer was $1. They also have a dance floor with a DJ blasting the latest rap and hip-hop that apparently wasn't overplayed on the radio enough. Find some ladies (and Jeffrey H) booty droppin' to some beats and spillin' their drinks on the floor. If dancing isn't your scene, head on back to the front of the bar where everyone else stands/sits around or throws some darts...a big attraction in southeastern Ohio. The staff is kinda 'rough around the edges' but I love 'em. The place is filthy but I love it. The booze is cheap and I love that. I didn't stop by last weekend while visiting and I hate that.

2/23/21 Man this place brings back memories…read more..  I am sure I meantioned this place in one of my reviews about Marshall University. If I didn't,  then let's take a trip back down memory lane. Many years...now decades ago I was a young 18 year old kid who wasn't as open minded about gay rights or gays in general.    Why?  It wasn't something I was really exposed to.  I smile now adays on how much I was exposed to it and just didn't see things for what they are.  Its is amazing on what you see on tv or by word of mouth and to some degree you might believe. This until you are bitchslapped (had to use that word ladies) back into reality.   I had heard of sexual acts going on at my old high school (which at the time was an all male school), but that was between two students that wanted sex. It had nothing to do with me so why be grossed out or afraid? Fast forward to the night I was with a friend who had to stop by Stonewall for some reason. I was a little hesitant to want to go in there. Why? All of the things I had heard about being sexual assaulted and other ludicrous thoughts going through my head. Well I pulled my head out of my ass and went with the flow. As we approached the club, we saw several women walking towards the club. These women were actually men dressed up as women. Some men did a better job looking like women then others, but that is besides the point...no...not really.   Why? Because as things turned out, tonight's agenda happened to be a drag queen contest and some of the men I saw just flat out failed to look like women.  Nevertheless,  they were up there having fun and that in the long run is what really mattered.  The building for this club is not very big, but it was packed with students who came to have a good time.  I did not notice the first time I was there, but the second and third time I went back, I noticed more straight men where there having a great time at the club.  Marshall University had several clubs, but the only other one I can think of is The Wild Dawg. I don't know rigjt now if this place is still around. Nevertheless,  Stonewall ended up being the best place to go have some fun and drink beer. Many of the other clubs I had visited had nothing on Stonewall.   I was quickly set free of bullshit theories about LGBTQ community.  My mind was more welcoming to all lifestyles...is that the right word?...I don't think so...I will say I keep an open mind now.   Looking back, my friends, family, classmates, employees and bosses have all had someone who was a member of the LGBTQ.  More importantly,  some of them felt comfortable to confide in me they were gay.  I am happy later on they came out and stopped hiding who they are.  It wouldn't have happened without the friendship of others who they trusted.   I am seriously digressing here, but I am happy to say I was proud to be able to have had a hand where gay marriage was accepted in all 50 states. Back on track, Stonewall had two sections where you could dance, but I normally shook my ass on center stages. I was once asked if I was gay or straight by a guy, but sadly he was let down that I wasn't gay.  Still, he would have wanted to hook up with me if I were gay.  Cool:)  Going to the Stonewall to dance helped get rid lot of problems I was having at school.   Who would have thought that a Gaybar could be so much fun...hell, it's in the first words right there.         Gay: "The word gay arrived in English during the 12th century from Old French gai, most likely deriving ultimately from a Germanic source. In English, the word's primary meaning was "joyful", "carefree", "bright and showy", and the word was very commonly used with this meaning in speech and literature." This club  will always have a special place in my heart. Because it changed me from a homophobe to a open minded person in one night.  About the only thing that wasn't appealing  on my first experience to the club are the bathrooms.  The bathrooms were messy and I experienced my first smell of weed. (Check out my review on Noble Gas for story) This first hand experience changed me too, but that is another story. As packed as the club was on that day, I can understand why it was messy.  All in all this place is a 5 star club from when I was here last.

On the first floor there is a great open lobby space with a smallish bar. This lends itself to facilitating conversations with other attendees - and my experience was that everyone who takes the time to come to the Opera House gets a similar vibe. I would encourage anyone contemplating a visit to take a look at the cast of performers who have appeared here. It is really quite a list. If you want to see some great, talented performers in a unique setting look no further - this is it.

I'd see another concert there but there are definitely pros and cons. Pros: -Intimate, cozy space. I love that you can wait on the first level before doors open -Super clean bathrooms -Good sound mixing Cons: -The floors in the concert hall are awful. They shook substantially when people walked and were very noisy. The gentleman behind me was a toe tapper (no shame! Totally normal) but the floors made it seem like Godzilla was wrecking a city behind me -Volunteers served as ushers and they were... Confused.

Anyway, they have amazing food here and really unique vibe. Outside you'll find a ton of locals who ride in on their side by sides. Right next door is an authentic Appalachian Moonshine Distillery so you can hit up two great places at once. They do a burger of the month here which is what I get almost every time and boy does it smack! One time they had a burger with a crab cake on top...amazing. Another time it had melted cheese and Frito's...also amazing. Even their regular plain Jane burgers are amazing. I would pair the burger of the month with one of the drinks of the month. Once they had this Apple Butter Old Fashioned and I've never had anything quite like it before or since...it was outstanding and even better that it used locally made apple butter. The fried pickle chips are my favorite appetizer. Wings are also a favorite. Fries or onion rings are both great options as sides for your burgers. I really haven't explored much else on the menu past the burgers since I can't get over how fantastic they are. I love all of the boat themed decor inside. The place is absolutely massive and I've never had to wait for a table. I have eaten at both a table and the bar, great service at either. The parking lot is gravel and on a hill. It might be hard to traverse in the winter with a lot of snow and in the summer if you arrive on a motorcycle just be aware that a lot of the gravel is loose on the hill so it might be a little squirrely getting down to the parking lot. I do plan on starting a Best of WV list and this will definitely make the cut.

Our Saturday was busy, he mowed most of the day and after errands I joined my 2 beautiful nieces from Charleston at the Ripley Pool!! We definitely had some fun in the sun!! Instead of cooking out, which was our original plan, we decided to go to the Fairplains Yacht Club and arrived about 6pm. We had to wait about 15 minutes, so I went to the bar and purchased him a Budweiser in a bottle. They were out of PBR due to strike at the Beverage delivering company! I had to purchase it there, due to fact they can't transfer to the table. Our waitress was Erin, she is so nice, sweet and attentive! Tony already had his bar beer, so I ordered a Half-Cut Tea w Lemon & Lime! Tony went with the Half Rack of Smoked Ribs with a Baked Potato w Butter & Sour Cream & Wilbur Beans *Baked Beans w Pulled Pork Bits Baked in it! (Very delicious )it also came with a roll... I ordered 6 Bone-In Smoked Wings w a side of Buffalo Ranch for dipping and also Blue Cheese for me and Ranch for Tony! We only had to wait about 20 minutes, so we chatted (which is hard due to noise level) and people hilarious The food was amazing!! Not a fan of Roll, its reheated in microwave so very hard and rubbery after about 6 minutes, they should be kept in warming oven or something...it was undesirable!! But hey, not judging whole meal on just that rubber ball !! The Ribs were amazing and a generous portion! I took a small section for myself and gave him 3 of my 6 wings. I also took a bite or 4 of his amazing Wilbur Beans...they are KILLER!! The Baked Potato was so delicious so I took about 1/3 of the potato and wish I had ordered my own, but my appetite is so crappy lately!! I hate to waste food and over order!! We are definitely going back! Highly recommend and if you are there on Saturday evening after 5pm...the Ribs are simply devine!!! Our check was $42 w taxes and all and left her 23% tip...it was a great relaxing dinner at the Yacht Club w cold beer and delicious food with OUTSTANDING Service from Erin!
