I love the stock bar. Is it still men only?
I used to love the Stud in montreal and that was men only and some girl sued the bar over discrimination because they wouldn't allow women in.

Townhouse Tokyo--very different demographic to NYC's namesake.
Located in Shimbashi, very big compared to other Japanese gay bars.
If you like Japanese "Salary Men"(aka white collar office workers) in 30s, suit/tie, mostly very masculine guys....Yum!

Boxers is fun. ^ Some pretty bartenders. ^

Reminds me a bit of the old Champs place. Seems to be trying to strike a balance between Gym and Splash. It's adjacent to the old Limelight, to the east of 6th Avenue. They have a really good Happy Hour, too.

I don't know if it's still there (it was in October, 2009) but Shanghai in Portland, OR.
I went there with a friend of mine and we actually didn't realize it was a gay bar until we sat down. He immeadiately wanted to leave but I told him we should at least have one beer and enjoy ourselves. As it turned out they had a great beer selection, some very friendly (and interesting) patrons and good service. We eventually left to continue our plan to drink Portland out of beer (we didn't) but with a good time had by both. I was glad to be around for his first Gay Bar experience.

Did a search of this thread but the last few posts were a year or so old, so things may have changed.
Either way, anyone recommend a good club in Montreal for the young-ish (18-21) crowd? My younger brother foolishly admitted that he was curious what a gay club was like and I'm looking to show him a good time.
