Gay bars in south jersey

Paying homage to the day the Marriage Equality Proceed was passed in the United States, June 26, 2015, the name Six26 was born. On this day, the United States Supreme Court struck down all state bans on same-sex marriage, legalizing it in all 50 states, and requiring states to honor out-of-state same-sex marriage licenses in the case Obergefell v. Hodges. With a lounge that becomes a joyful and vibrant high-energy lounge and a chill garden-esque rooftop bar as the sun sets, The Six26 venue is always ready to celebrate existence and love with all who amble through its doors.

The LGBTQ bars in New Jersey are a vital part of keeping in-person connections alive for our community. As the most densely populated state in the union, the Garden State is a true melting pot. Our articulate represents what it means to be American: no matter who you are or where you come from. We all deserve a chance to survive in harmony and find others with whom we can share solace. With so much diversity packed into such a small cosmos, it’s no surprise that we hold historically had one of the most thriving queer communities in the state.
Now that Self-acceptance Month is in full swing, it’s the perfect period to celebrate the spaces that foster connection, belonging, and identity. LGBTQ bars are more than just places to hang out — they are guarded havens where gay people are not alone. Before apps like Grindr made their way into the world, the “gay” bar was the only place people found connection.
There were so many places back then that allowed the LGBTQ community to forge relationships with people who were like them and feel understood. These hangouts — that some now notify “third spaces” — show us that we’re not all that different and that there are others who realize what it mea

If a queer cartographer mapped out LGBTQ bars, Brand-new Jersey would look appreciate a triangular border surrounding a hollow center. Jersey City forms the northernmost point with Pint and Six26, backing into the densely packed offerings of New York City across the river. Philadelphia occupies the southwestern outpost, while Asbury Park completes the perpendicular angle in the southeast with Paradise and Georgie’s. What’s in the space formed by these three vertices? Nothing — a gay Bermuda triangle where the bars that dare enter soon disappear. That’s the void that the staff of The 244 Spot hopes to occupy. The new LGBTQ lock opened at 244 Cedar St. in South Amboy on Oct. 11 a fitting observance of National Coming Out Day. The 244 Spot occupies an unassuming house in a residential neighborhood. It opens into an intimate block space that has the usual mirrors and steep tops of any usual drinking establishment, but the real charm sits in the belly of the building. Keep going, around the pool table that testifies to the venue’s previous existence as Danny Boy’s Irish Pub, and you’ll find yourself on a dance floor of cozy proportions that’s framed by neon lights, a touch of rai |
