easy access bar downtown

frenchboy 0/

i spend a few week nights here, mostly gay friends who know each other, some straight and lesbians, a good mix, if you speak to someone, it's ok, he introduce you to other ppl, but if you're alone at night, it can be difficult to make friends. But the bar is ok .bartenders (mostly female) are friendly, cute gogo dancers of all types.Nice atmosphere.Easy for a drink after visiting the city, near to most hotels downtown.

Find somewhere else

The reviews about the lack of friendliness are correct. No only the patrons but the dancers essentially do nothing but talk to people they know. This place with its "full smoking" policy is a good one to skip. Hopefully some other Pittsburgh bar will start featuring dancers.

Inexpensive Bar, But Rather Aloof Crowd

BBwannabe 0/

Images has a *long* bar with seven flatscreen TVs and a pool table by the front window. They have go-go boys in their underwear Tues. and Fri. nights at 6:00 pm and 10:30 pm. I was there on Fri. 7/17/09, and it was not very crowded. The cover was $1.00 (yes, one dollar--that's not a typo!) The drinks were cheap (I paid $2.50 for a rum and coke) and the crowd seemed mixed with gays, lesbians, and a few straights. It seems like a nice place to relax with a drink at the bar or one of the tables. The only downside was that the patrons were quite aloof, and there were only a few dancer boys working there, cute though they were. My advice is to go with a friend or two, unless you like being left alone. :)

Final review of my stay

Just_Like_That 0/

Similar experience to another poster, that patrons were standoff-ish and unwilling to engage in conversation. Overall it describes my experience at many Pittsburgh bars. Even though I was only in this city for 11 days, I never encountered a dynamic such as this. While most cities welcome a new face, locals here hold a guard up. I'm an outgoing, attractive guy and the experience would make me begin to question myself if it were not for a few other visitors I met who were given the same impression. I hope I never have to return here or rather, hope that locals could learn the value of friendliness towards others.

Some good, some bad

We were visiting Pittsburgh for the weekend. Bar staff was friendly and competent. Place was clean, restroom was nice. Patrons were standoff-ish. Our attempts to engage locals in conversation were rebuffed (and we are not trolls). Met friends there a second night and had a better experience.

I am a straight female and went to Images for the first time last night with friends of mine who are gay and I had a real good time. Especially with the dancers. They were great. I will visit again the next time I'm in town!

A Sexless Gay bar

Trey 26/M

I went here after just moving to the area. Sexless in the city should be the name of this place. Nice place, but little else.

This was one of my favorite places back in the 1990's.I moved away for 10 years.When I moved back this place had gone way down hill,but thanks to the new owners and a signifigant amount of renovations this place is hot once again....Check it out.

convenient and friendly

BarMan 32/M

This place has been there for years. They have finally spent some substantial money and have cleaned up their act. It gets a good crowd for happy hours and before one would go out to clubs. Generally friendly and a decent looking crowd. When there is no DJ you are left to the mixed bag of a very overpriced Juke Box. If no one plays anything there is no music. I put $20 in just to not sit in silence. The staff made no moves to putting something on. All the expensive video screens were silent. I think it need a good manager for it to really take off. The DJs are generally good but I think they would do better to just have a knowledgable manager to select appropriate music for the time. It's a great location, a little rough around the edges. I understand they plan to open the second floor for dancing.

Clean, friendly atmosphere

BandT 44/F

Nice little bar with a friendly staff and friendly patrons where someone is bound to strike up a conversation if you're sitting there alone. They have one pool table, no dancefloor tho that doesn't stop anyone if the mood strikes them.
