  Character

  The Interbelt is kind of a mystery to me, but I've only been here twice. The first was a country night on a Saturday when they randomly had Levi Crocker from A-List Dallas as a guest. Levi was fun but by 12:30, the place was still relatively empty and no one was dancing, so we left. The second time was another Saturday night. The music was MUCH better on this night and I discovered some awesome Moto Blanco club mixes. People still didn't start showing up until after midnight, but we ended up staying and dancing until the place closed. The crowd was mostly gay men and their ladyfriends. There were a few 'scene queens' but they never bother me. One unusual straight man was there with his girlfriend and I overheard him saying some cruel things about some other people at the club. Go somewhere else, please. Interbelt has an unusual set up. There's a large seemingly empty, unusable space in the middle of the club- surrounded by the bar on one side, the stage on another, the relatively small dance floor on another, and a raised seating area on another. Cover was $5 both nights we were here. Drink prices were on the expensive side for Akron. Although I suppose it could use a face lift, I liked the place. It had history and personality. Think of all the generations of LGBT people who have danced at this downtown spot for so long! I haven't been to a hip-hop Monday but I wouldn't mind coming back here again for a fun dance night. Interbelt has some character, and I like that .

  Fun dance spot

  I was only here once. By the time I arrived after 1am, I was pretty buzzed. However, my boyfriend, who was DD for the night, and I both had a great time here. Were we the only ones dancing? Yes. But that's why we came, and the high-energy DJ, DJ Steve, was incredible. He played all of our requests as we tore up the small dance floor until after 2:30. The crowd was mostly older with a few 20somethings mixed in. Drinks were cheaper than Interbelt or Square. Although Adams feels really safe inside, the area around it isn't the greatest, but then again, it's Akron. Adams Street seems to have a unique history as a long-standing LGBT venue in Akron. We'll be back for the Saturday late-night dancing and amazing DJ and the cheaper drinks.

  I guess I'm too Square...

  I had high hopes for Square. I wanted to like it. I wanted to go and dance and have a good Saturday night. We showed up around 9:30pm and stayed for about an hour and a half. The DJ had not yet started spinning by that point so we left. Drinks weren't unreasonable... I think I paid $6 for two Yuenglings, which isn't horrible for a club... but the crowd was a little odd. On this night, there were a handful of older gay men, a few 20something gays, and mostly women dressed in anything from gowns to sweat pants. I didn't know what to make of it and I didn't feel comfortable walking around Highland Square holding hands with my partner.

  Old School

  Mary Coyle is truly an old school establishment. Everything about it screams 70+ years old. My partner and I came here around 8pm on a Saturday night. While he enjoyed the vibe more than I did, the ice cream sundae we split was alright. Service was good. The crowd consisted of mostly families, plus a group of high school kids. We were the only gay couple there and although we felt a little out of place after so many weekends in Columbus, no one really made us feel uncomfortable. After the ice cream, we went to see a movie at the Highland Theater, another bizarre place. I'm still not sure what to make of Highland Square.
