What a place! It nice to be able to get away from the city life and have some real fun. The music is good and it is a cozy place to have fun and not wory about the Big City Drama that I hate!! Everyone should try the Link at least once. Might not be the place for everyone but what place is? Check It Out!!

First timer at the Link

Preppyboi4u 32/M

I was at the Link this past Saturday and was amazed at what the bar did. Their staff dressed in drag (men as women & women as men) and preformed to raise money for the Mon Valley Aids Taskforce. The crowd was tipping the preformers and all money raised with to the Aids Taskforce, what a great idea. I was also happy with the service of the bartenders and wait staff. They did not make me seem like I was bothering them when I needed a drink. You don't find that in some of the bay bars in the bigger cities. I will return to the Link in the near future to have more fun and be entertained!

Enjoy the sounds...sights...GLBT community!

relaxingbudrite 43/M

In Hermine, westmoreland county, stands a great club with that type of atmosphere giving the local GLBT comunnity to dance, chat, play games, eat some great food! My visit w/ a couple of friends found us connecting with the owners and staff that made sure our visit was relaxing and even comedic with their antics. I would say the best time to visit, as numerous trips will occur, are weekends and Wed nites!

The Link to a good time

DarkModel 27/M

Being that I'm from the city, the thought of driving 40 minutes to the middle of no where to go to a club was exausting, but I did it anyway. When we got to the LINK I have to admit it looked a bit Old on the outside....but the inside was a completely different story. It was bright and decorated in fun festive decor. The staff was completely welcoming and the drinks are phenominally priced! So to our suprise there happened to be a drag show that night which I'm not a huge fan of but turned out I fell in love with. SO HILARIOUS AND SO ENTERTAINING! The link books great queens and entertainment! So I give the link an A ...great food great drinks, great people great music and great entertainment! Definitely going back

The Missing Link

snuffy731 30/M

The grueling drive from Pittsburgh to the middle of nowhere was a warning sign for things to come. The bar itself was sort of dumpy with a simple-minded feel to it. The staff was generally friendly except for the African-American owner, who is one of the rudest creatures I have ever encountered. The Saturday night DJ was typical of a small town gay bar: Horrible dance remixes of equally bad popular songs. I guess music that is no challenge to your mind is all that type of crowd can handle. I have visited bars all over the country and I honestly have never received such an unwelcome reception by its patrons. On my first visit, I was an outsider. On my second visit, I was treated like an outsider. The attitude level of the bar is more than that of a cosmopolitan city bar, something which is slightly shocking considering the area and look of the place. Is there such thing as gay hillbilly chic? Based on 2 Saturday night attempts, I can only view The Link as a backwoods, slightly backwards, private club disguised as a gay bar. I will NEVER return to this place and I would strongly suggest anyone to second guess going there, unless of course, you feel as though you would fit right in.
