    I appreciate this bar to opening right after the lock down ended. Had a lot of fun.

    I would maybe give more stars had I made it through the door. I said hello to a gal on the front stoop and asked if she was having a good time in there. She said, “yes, it’s great. Go on in”! Another gal walked out as I was about to pull open the door and joined in the convo! She asked my two friends and I if we were straight which sort of took me aback. Wish I had said, none of your business. I said yes, I guess I am. This woman (if I can call her that, she was more of a monster, does that fall on the spectrum?) said to us not to go in at all if we are straight. She yelled at us for even thinking of going in and proceeded to tell us to “have a terrible night.” We did not. We went to a more welcoming place and had a great night. I’m guessing hers was not so great. I was invited here by another woman and I will be back to make known I am my own kind of queer and yet NOT THE SAME! Be careful you don’t become the very thing you fear.

    This place is pretty nice if you are looking for karaoke. They will also have drag shows that are announced on their Facebook page. When it comes to the drinks, they are reasonably priced. This place is equipped with three dart boards with a little area for everyone to sit to watch. This is probably one of my favorite parts. In the summertime it is also nice to stop in as they have a nice patio. There is a covered part along with a smaller area that is uncovered. I definitely recommend Club 20 if you want a place that is a little less crowded.

    I love club 20 so much! I have been going to this bar for years now and it has been deemed my home bar! It is the only bar I will go to by myself because I feel so safe and so comfortable!! Jeremy is seriously the best!! You truly can’t beat the pricing on the drinks!! I could write so much more but just check out the bar for yourself and I promise you won’t be disappointed!!

    Horrible service, and racially driven behavior toward guest. Bartender told us a lie about the price of the drinks and then charged us more.

    This place just rocks! It is a hole in the wall but that just adds to its charm! It is super fun! And often brings in formidable performers from a range of genres. Last time I came here i felt like I should leave a $50 on the counter. It was such a treat!

    Super small inside. Gorgeous patio outside. Excellent jukebox. Karaoke almost every night of the week. Parking is non existent. They took the pool table out but there are a few dart boards. Mixed crowd, which is nice. Late Night Slice is right across the street.

    Always a great time at O’Connor’s Club 20. Friendly bartenders, fun shows/entertainers. Be sure to hit up Sunday Funday for Abortia’s show.

    What a fun club! I walked into the the last 3 questions of a horror movie trivia quiz contest! I thought I knew the answer to which movie out of four did not contain the Necronomicon I was wrong! The answer was Cabin in the Woods!

    We go for Karaoke on Tuesdays with Endless Journey Entertainment. That is great. The bar is ok, but small. Seating is premium till about 11:30 - 12:00 am on that night. Have drink specials, also darts. Haven't been there any other night.

    I visited here with some friends. Service was great. Bartender remembered my tab even when the bar was packed. Very friendly. Clean unisex bathrooms. Good jukebox.

    Amazing place to grab a drink and enjoy your company! Friendly staff, and delicious food; no doubt that this place will not disappoint. The bar is very involved in the community as well, sponsoring softball and other teams that travel and compete in various leagues.

    I had a horrible time at O'Connors the bartender lied about the price of my drinks. And charged me more than any of my friends. The bartender last night had a horrible attitude toward me and other people of color as I was told. And charged them higher than what he said the price of the drinks where. This was not the first time this has happened and by the same Bartender. It is clearly racially provoked. And makes for a horrible time at the bar. This behavior is disgusting, there are very few gay bars in the area and everyone should feel welcome at oconnors. Especially paying customers.
