This place is not up to standard. The drinks I had were spiked, and I should know, being a bartender myself. I didn't appreciate that you are harming your customers for a quick buck. They just wanted to have a good time. I only had one drink, so I shouldn't have a headache or feel nauseous. Also they only take cash….. as if mobile pay isn’t a thing.

So I have gone to this bar twice. The first time was to see my friend perform. My drink had no alcohol. That has never happened to me at a bar before. The second time I went to perform myself. They slammed both doors in my face because I left the door open and they shouted “close the door” and slammed it very hard. For obvious reasons I will not be going back. A brought a group of people with me there and bought several drinks. It’s rude to slam a door in a customer’s face, in fact that is unheard of, because your door doesn’t close on it’s own. That is not my fault. Really unprofessional and rude.

This is an ideal dive bar with excellent bartenders, fun theme nights, very reasonable prices and specials, the best DJs spinning vintage vinyl records and a cool, relaxed atmosphere. It’s a gift to have a place like this for the Central NJ LGBT community - there was such a void until recently. It’s virtually drama-free; the only drama I ever hear about is summarily dealt with and not welcomed back, which is as it should be. Come support them - Friday nights are the best - and have a great and safe time!

Amazing night time bar with amazing staff! Everyone makes you feel at home and taken care of! Feels like family. Has great djs on the weekend and for drag night tuesdays and has a touch tunes for the other days! Pool table and seating makes it great for hanging out with friends. Definitely a great place to go!

Such a fun place to be! Small and lovely with a huge family like atmosphere. Everyone is so nice and caring and all they want to do is make sure you’re having an amazing time while you’re there. Definitely try a Tsunami and Frank ocean

The 244 Spot is a great all inclusive establishment where everyone is welcome! Friendly staff, affordable drinks, great entertainment & DJ's...the perfect home away from home! The green tea shots are a MUST HAVE!

I hate to say this but I think our beers were spiked by the bartender. Thursday night. 05-17. The other bartender was there that evening with his friends. We immediately tasted a change in the beers, bud light. And immediately asked for another. I will never go to that bar ever. It’s a shame when they say NJ is low life, white trash. —— it’s true.

Just moved to Jersey and wanted to head out to a gay bar. Was pretty disappointed to get to the door and find out that a cash-only cover is required to get in the door. I typically go out with just my phone and credit card, but most places nowadays accept Venmo or Apple Pay in the event that a cash fee is required. Maybe I’ll come back another day with some cash, but for now I’m upset that the closest gay bar to my place is behind the times.
