Armed with a style sharper than his wit, Rainbow Randy's reviews cut through the ordinary like a knife through butter. He's not just critiquing drinks; he's reading the room.

So, buckle up, buttercup, and let Rainbow Randy be your fabulous guide through the glittery, boozy wonderland of the City of Roses.

A note from the Rainbow Randy team...

Welcome to the fabulous world of Rainbow Randy! We're thrilled that you stopped by our site. Our reviews are here to tickle your funny bone and offer a dash of information, all while we chase after the glitter and joy in each queer and dive bar we visit. Our aim is to blend information with fun, all the while keeping the spotlight on the hardworking bar owners and staff.

 

Now, let's talk transparency. Take our reviews with a sprinkle of salt; after all, it's all about the fun here. We're here to entertain and enlighten, not to overshadow the dedication and effort of the incredible folks running these establishments.

 

Speaking of perspective, we want to be crystal clear. The Rainbow Randy team consists of cisgendered white gay men. While we strive to provide reviews that encompass a broad spectrum, we may inadvertently miss the mark on the unique needs and considerations of our diverse community. We can't step into the shoes of everyone, and we acknowledge that our experience might not reflect yours.

 

If you're reading our reviews and think, "Hmm, that doesn't quite match my experience," we want to hear from you! We're all ears for your input, especially if you represent a different perspective—be it female, trans, BIPOC, or any other group. Your insights will not only help us better understand these spaces but also contribute to a more inclusive and accurate portrayal for our larger community. So, spill the tea, and let's make Rainbow Randy a place where everyone feels seen, heard, and celebrated!
