"This is one of the best show cast that I have seen in a very long time! The girls are fabulous and gorgeous. Very talented!!! And the drinks are also delicious! It's just a great atmosphere for fun and dancing and meeting people!"

"This place brings the term dive bar to a new low. We were visiting 8 nights and we LOVE supporting gay businesses but give me a break! Every night the bartenders were rude and unapproachable. The bathrooms stunk, tiles on the wall missing, paper towels empty (I mentioned to staff). Some customers (not us) ordered glasses of wine. The wine glasses still had lipstick marks on them and the bartender didn’t care and rolled his eyes. He also served wine that was so old it tasted disgusting but when four people complained he didn’t care and still charged them full price. The bar itself was so dark that NONE of the liquor was visible or highlighted. Had way more fun at the straight bars nearby. So sad! Nobody seems to care about this place! I hope somebody buys it who actually cares about the physical and actual appearance of the place."

"1st time visit and expected to see the early drag show @8p but there was scarcely a crowd to perform in front of until the 2nd show @ 9:45p. Things definitely turn't up.. and the music & the show was very good! The only detractor was being solicited by a guy down on his luck asking for money to get some food. Which surprised me because there was a $5 admission @ the door and I wondered why he was inside the club. He admitted to me that they know him at the front door and let him inside. Whatever the truth was I gave him a few $$ and told him with a stern look ,to not let me see him at the bar with a drink! He disappeared for the night. Still had a good time @ Dudley's though!"

"It can get a bit tight in here and I hate the cover charge, but I’m happy to have a gay bar in Charleston where our community can come together- we get a bit spread out with very few “Gay” specific places - so it’s good to have this one!!"
