Pure is the Gayborhood’s only after-hours club, so while the main floor is sparsely populated for most of the night, it picks up around 2 a.m. for another hour and a half of dancing and debauchery (some of which notoriously happens in the bathroom stalls).
It has a large mezzanine that offers amazing wraparound views of the main floor below, and the more intimate Pink Lounge is the place for karaoke, bingo, and Quizzo.
The $2 “pink drinks” served nightly from 9 to 11 p.m. ensures that patrons are both exhausted and hungover for work the next day.
