Real Luck Café (Lucky's Bar)

I love visiting this place whenever I visit Pittsburgh. There are 2 levels, the first being a sit-down bar and the second having a bar and dance floor. It has a lovely gritty feeling and everybody I have met here has been inviting and inclusive. The music has also been good to dance to which is rare to find. Definitely visit this place if you are part of the LGBTQ+ community looking for a fun night out in the city.

Tried to apply to dance and was faced with adversity, based on the fact of an assumption that I stole money from the bar, when all I was doing was tipping the dancers from my change. Bob. Upstairs is rude and unprofessional. This is not a place that is friendly for black queer people as most spaces in Pittsburgh are not

I like Lucky's. Fun atmosphere and almost all of the patrons are gay men. I wish there were more people like me in their early 20s there as the crowd is mainly millennials and older. I also wish they gave out water. I totally recommend checking out Lucky's.

Didn't waste time downstairs with the smokers but instead went right upstairs to enjoy the packed yet fun dance floor and the even more fun go-go dancers, was about 6 when we went. Planning a Pittsburgh trip just to hang out here more now lol

I wish it was mentioned more in the reviews that this is a SMOKING bar. It's 2023 and there are still SMOKING bars around. They make no qualm about it with big fat signs on the door. We were there Friday around 10 as this was the gay bar from our hotel. The bar itself was pretty quiet with a few people smoking by the bar. It's busier on the top with 3 go-go boys dancing in a room filled with smoke and older folks. We walked out to the back patio and got recruited by a table of customers from out of town in Pittsburgh for a convention, who were also at the back outside coz they didnt want to burn their clothes after going to the bar as well. We hung out with them for a drink which was fun. As we were leaving the bar picked up a little just around midnight. The location of the bar is interesting. The bar resisted a buy out so the new development has to build around them now. Power to them in that regard. But if smoking bothers you. This isnt the place for you.

The perfect gay dive bar.Down to earth weirdos.Hardcore drinkers.Cigarettes.Good music on the jukebox.Cheap.Amazing.♡Lucky's has won my heart. HOWEVER...I found myself having to watch my drink and several patrons several times made jokes suggesting things that would imply I need to watch my drink.Not very good humor now is that? Also the "straight" guys hanging out with everyone asking all sorts of questions acting puritanical was weird....seemed like dicks...nosy.Bizarre.Other than that I love it!♡

Nice and caring place, left my bag and phone by accident and they kept it for me so I was able to pick up later. Bloody Mary is good.
