“ My friends and I went here for my birthday for karaoke night and it was so much fun! I wish I lived in this area to go here more often! Definitely recommend!! ”
“ Casual, friendly gay bar. Has an edgy feel to it, except the guys are friendly. I was visiting family & came to find a gay space, and that's what this is. Plus, plenty of the guys are cute if u want to hook up. ”
“ I am a patient at The Greens at Pinehurst, a rehab center, and I would like for you to pass the word to everybody you meet that this place needs some "gay type happiness" every day. We need a couple of volunteers to come help with the activities, so there will be laughter, old time kidding, joking, you know the routine. I am quite sure a volunteer experience would lead to a job, assuming you want one. Surely there are some of you out there who can spare a little free time for people that you will some day be in your future. A patient ”
“ I was at Flex with friends for their Leather night, it was great. the atmosphere really laid back and everyone was super friendly. drinks are always good. Flex is for everyone, gay, straight, whatever, come as you are and you're always welcomed. ”
“ I was there on Saturday night, right in downtown area. Downstairs and a $5 cover to get in but totally worth it. Nice and friendly crowd, good music and overall friendly atmosphere. I'll definitely be back on my next trip to Raleigh! ”
“ If you are looking for a gay BAR and not a gay club Flex is the perfect place for you. When I came out I went to another gay bar in the area and it wasn't a very good experience, it was like I stepped into an episode of mean girls. I left and the next weekend we went to Flex and I had a totally Different experience. Everyone was friendly, chatty and it had a great all-around vibe. Its not the best place to go dancing, but the regulars are awesome and its a more laid back atmosphere which leads to easier socializing. ”
“ The music cab be better. The DJ was playing a lot o crunchy sounding techno which was pretty bad. However the drinks were great and the crowd was pretty laid back. The staff was attentive and made us feel right at home. ”
“ I really liked that the Dj played Cardi B for me. Really made my night and I will be coming back. ”
“ Had so much fun the other night on Thursday for karaoke night!! They have good drink specials. No cover for karaoke. There was a good crowd of people when I went. Way more than the first time I did karaoke, there were probably like 15-25 people. It's a cute bar with an outside patio for smokers. I think it's in a great area of Raleigh, your a block from Glenwood street and about 5 or so from Fayetteville street. The staff was very nice and funny. One bartender got up and sang too! Ha good times good vibes. ”
