XXL Lisbon Club

Bar Gay bar

😠 Lisbon was pretty shy about indoor cruising, with 2 small clubs - darko and bar cru: small & not gorgeous ones. "Woof X" can be surprisingly fun sometimes, with its welcoming staff, but it's more after 0.00. I was glad to know there was a newcomer. Guess what: it's the worst. What's the point of ope...

    Very poor. Very small. 10€ and they make you pay before entering - because they know you'll leave if you actually see inside and how small/empty it is. Don't bother.

    Lisbon was pretty shy about indoor cruising, with 2 small clubs - darko and bar cru: small & not gorgeous ones. "Woof X" can be surprisingly fun sometimes, with its welcoming staff, but it's more after 0.00. I was glad to know there was a newcomer. Guess what: it's the worst. What's the point of opening another cruising, when you didn't learn nothing from others ? You just kept the bad ideas. And for the 1st time in my life, I've been served a beer in a 'long drink' glass (12cl !). 10 euros for tiny glass of draft warm Heineken (no other beer, not even in bottle)... How miserly ! And with that, you will be harrassed by ugly old naked guys, who seem to have their total liberty here, and will keep on touching you, after 4 or 5 'NOOOO!!!'. No surprise when you discover that the bartender himself is going all around to touch customers. You won't find any intimacy anywhere, they didn't think that adding at last a few cabins without black-out, would be a good alternative. You will be closed before 1 year, and you will deserve it. Stop taking tourists for donkeys. Never again !

    (Translated by Google) Terrible! At the entrance I asked if there were people and the answer was “it's not VERY crowded”. I went in, paid 10 euros and there was absolutely NOBODY. I would even try to go back another day if they were honest about the amount of people inside, but this way I won't risk it again. Lost money. (Original) Péssimo! Na entrada perguntei se tinha gente a resposta foi “não está MUITO cheio”. Entrei, paguei 10 euros e não tinha absolutamente NINGUÉM. Eu até tentaria voltar outro dia se fossem sinceros sobre a quantidade de pessoas dentro, mas desse jeito não voltarei a arriscar. Dinheiro perdido.

    The discrepancy in reviews says it all. The 5 stars ordered were fake and the 1 star were real. The owner's responses to negative reviews say everything about XXL, whoever manages it and the environment you'll find, a real hole disguised as a gay cruising bar. Anyone who travels to European capitals knows what a cruising bar is and this is nothing more than a trap for foreign gays looking for something fetishistic. I was there this Friday and it was one to forget. And imagine the xenophobic response my criticism will receive here. Now if you don't believe what I'm saying, go and draw your own conclusions, after all you'll only lose 10 minutes and 10 euros....and good luck, you'll need it!

    Great Staff, even on a quiet night they made us so welcome, we stayed nearly till the end. Very clean and hot men visiting. Dress-code?? You got to find out yourself 😉

    Probably the worst gay bar in the world. The location is okay but the service is a disgrace. Reactions to critical reviews here only illustrate the sheer incompetence of the ‘management’. Avoid this place, there are better options in Lisbon.

    (Translated by Google) Without a doubt, it is the best cruising club in Lisbon. Tastefully decorated on all levels. Friendly people and impeccable service from the staff. I will always come back. (Original) Sem dúvida é o melhor club de cruising de Lisboa. Decorado com muito bom gosto, em todos os níveis. Lugar de gente simpática e atendimento impecável do staff. Voltarei sempre.

    Do not come here during the week days! The minimum drink consumption is €6 and the bar tender does not speak English. We walked in ay 10pm on a Wednesday and there is no one here and the bartender still wants us to pay €6 per person without telling us. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL TIMES!!

    (Translated by Google) The place is even nice, the main environment where the bar is located is very large, they should close one more part to have more cruising possibilities, the cruising environment itself is very small and the place is stuffy. I don't drink alcohol, only soda and the soda that is served is served from a bottle, there is no can, I don't particularly like this way of working. Newly opened environment, few people, expensive and the service is not the best. I hope the house improves with time. (Original) O lugar é até simpático, o ambiente principal aonde fica o bar é bem grande, deveriam fechar mais uma parte para haver mais possibilidades de cruising, o ambiente de cruising em si é muito pequeno e o local é abafado. Eu não bebo alcool só refrigerante e o refrigerante que é servido, é servido de garrafa, não tem lata, eu particularmente não curto essa forma de trabalhar. Ambiente recém inaugurado, poucas pessoas, caro e o atendimento não é dos melhores. Faço votos que a casa melhore conforme o tempo.
