White Horse Inn

Yes I have lived near the Horse forever. I have been going there for over twenty years. It is a bar to hang your hat and have a drink. I always feel at ease there even if I have been gone for a couple of years...it is friendly. A hang out, some would say a dive but if you hit it at the right time...usually early on a Saturday eightish or later on a Sunday you might run into the whole gang from the Gay Men's Health Collective. Great cute guys all who are into fun and being friendly. If I go out it is one of three bars in this area I'd go to...now if you want to hunt down some ass maybe you should go to the Bench and Bar...it is steamy...but then again if you want steam why don't you skip the booz and go straight to Steamworks, Berkeley's bath house?

OK, so the carpet is probably the best thing about this place, which is good to know when you're staring at your shoes cause that cute boy/girl is looking your way. But the 2nd best thing is that this bar is NOT for scenesters -- it's a great place to chat, play pool, and find "family." It's got a really chill atmosphere and no one judges you for being a dork. A great place for when you feel like a drink, but not the madness of cruising.
