Best of Boston

2006 Best Gay Club

Dbar

Every evening at the stroke of 10 p.m. this unselfconscious Dorchester hot spot seamlessly morphs from restaurant to nightclub. Sleek wood and leather interior trimmings set the scene for men of all ages, who mingle and sip drinks like the ‘Hot ‘n’ Dirty’ or the ‘French Manicure.’ Depending on the night, Dbar can be a laid-back lounge or testosterone-pumping dance club. But svelte, dimpled bartenders, eager to schmooze and serve, are always on hand.
