Moved to Columbus recently and this has been one of the greatest gay bar experiences I’ve ever had. Everyone is welcoming and fun, and the drag shows are top notch. First time I went I asked one of the bartenders to make up a coconut drink and it was amazing. Now every time I go he recognizes me and knows my order before I even ask! Looking forward to many more nights at this Columbus LGBT landmark!

Highly recommended. Definitely recommend Sunday church. Saturday is going to be fun here too. Only bad thing I have to say about this place is they need to learn how to mop their floors so they're not so sticky. All you need is bleach and hot water and then once you do that you can use some Dawn dish soap and hot water and that would do the job just fine. Sounds like a bad judgment. Call on management

I went to Axis Nightclub to celebrate my birthday and had such a fun time! The music was great, the crowd was lively, and the staff was super friendly. The energy was amazing all night — definitely a great spot if you’re looking to dance and celebrate with good vibes!

Every time I find myself in the Short North (on the weekends) I immediately see what Axis has going on! From the front security, to the bathroom attendant, Ive never had an issue! Everyone is friendly, accepting, and push inclusivity! The entertainment is TOP NOTCH! The Queens, the dancers, the Kings and all in between. Every different kind of person is celebrated, and thats exactly what I look for! PRIDE is coming up and thats the first place youll be able to find me! If you havent been, you need to!
