Gold Star Bar
Editorial Review
What's the draw of this Prohibition-era room with stools in front, pool in back? Must be its consistency because it's changed not at all in 15 years or more. Not quite a total dive but nowhere near a respectable establishment, Gold Star carries a certain element of drunken danger in the air at all times. Don't dally in the bathroom or someone may just kick its rickety, graffiti'd door in on you.
