What People Are Saying About Big Lug

In Short – With a brawny Bluto-esque cartoon character as its mascot, this below street-level gay lounge makes no bones about its masculinity. All wood appointments from the bar to benches, tables, stools and mounted drink holders foster a hunter's lodge sensibility. But minimalist red lights and velvet settees in the back allude to a more sensual rendezvous. You can dance if you want to, as DJs rip a different genre each night. More laid-back patrons watch films at the bar.
