I do love this place.People are really cool and very well dress (good sense of fashion ) and very good looking guys .I think it is the best spot of the area specially the bar and dance floor .

Sunday T Dance is good, inexpensive drinks all day and in the summer, cheap hamburgers. Mondays have free games. Saturday before 11pm is good after that it's life in a gay sardine can. However you probably won't be drinking very much. $6.25 for a well cocktail is just a bit pricey, on top of $3 cover charge! I still go the Cuff. Its one of the better places. Lots of places to wander around.

Pros: Large, pool table off to the side, outside patio, multiple bathrooms

Cons: expensive cocktails, a little intimidating if you're alone

This place is a great hangout. The drinks are adequate, beer is cheap. It’s a huge bar, you can really walk around and change it up. The outdoor patio is huge and is a great spot to socialize without trying to shout over the music. The bar shows prOn which is a great distraction for unwanted conversations. Sundays ramp up and this is the spot – packed and thumping!

Reading the old reviews, I'd suggest that they revisit the Cuff Complex. I was there on a Sunday recently and the Tea Dance was unbelievably fun. It starts at 4 PM, the DJ had no problems with all the requests I gave him and the format was a combination of 70's 80's 90's AND the current hot dance music over the afternoon and night (til 2AM.) The staff was friendly as were the bartenders. And what a great sound system! Still the best gay bar in Seattle.

Pros: Great music, great DJs.

Cons: There's no after hours on Sundays. Oh well :-)

i have been going to the Cuff since i moved here and it remains my favorite club. on many occassions i have danced till i dropped. i have checked out all the other clubs in seattle but i always feel most comfortable at the cuff, the men are men and if you just want to cruise, thats cool, or if you strike a conversation with a new friend you can do that easily. i will continue to enjoy the cuff and it will stay on my hot list as long as its around. this club rivals the best in the u.s. , i have been to Ft. Laud, Miami Bch, New York, Atlanta, Key West, Ptown, LA, etc and the Cuff has all the right stuff!

Pros: cool people, hot men, packed house

Cons: none

The Cuff used to be THE place for Men (with a CAPITAL M) to meet in Seattle. In the past 2 years, it has been in a rapid and sad decline. New STRAIGHT owners came in and fired almost all the staff, who were greatly responsible for creating the success of the establishment. The only things going for it are a great environment, nice outdoor patio, and it is STILL the place to go on Pride Day for the massive street party. I used to go to the Cuff 2-3 times a week. Now it's once a year, for the Street Party.

Pros: Pride Day Party

Cons: Disinterested Staff, Lack of Focus, High Prices

Recently the Cuff has made major changes. All for the bad. Different Bartenders and the feel is all wrong. Used to be fun BUT no more. Lousy service, lousy drinks, and lousy music. You can do better at other bars in town.

Cons: , Lousy Music

The Cuff is a great laid back gay bar. It is unpretentious, unlike some of Seattle's other gay bars. It is big, and has plenty to do. The scene is pretty mixed. Mondays have free pinball and games, and a great low key time to unwind at the Cuff.

Pros: Laid Back, Service, Value

Cons: Cover

When did customer service fall out of the structure for operating a bar, dance club, and lounge? If anyone knows customer service it's the gay community-but The Cuff has fallen into a very self serving rut. Request a song-sorry, you're stuck with whatever "trend" the DJ assigns themself to. I can drink at home, dance somewhere else, and chat with strangers ANYWHERE else. The Cuff is off of my list!!

Pros: Used to be Hip, Was a great place

Cons: , Unfamiliar staff, No Customer Service
