The name can be a touchy thing for some people—they snicker and don't quite know what to make of it. All one needs to know is that, yes, it"s a gay club that offers male striptease, a dance hall and full bar not to mention a sauna and a hotel. The atmosphere and even the art on the walls is appropriately racy, but we'll leave the exploration of the labyrinth to others. See its website for events and restrictions. Men only.

trevor 01 March 2011 Overpriced drinks (9 euro for vodka and coke). Unfriendly staff. Tourists charged more than locals. Cheap tacky decor. Go to Golden Bar instead-cheaper and welcoming.

Berlin 11 February 2011 I want to hear how people have been ripped off in XXL Bar at XXL Nightclub and at their hotel, telling it so no others will be scammed at this place XXL Nakts Klubs that lately unfortunately has become a disgrace to the gay community and for Riga and Latvia, so the tax authority and the police are made aware of all people who have been ripped off there.Hope in your pocket Riga also puts a warning about this place to the printed edition so people that one can not trust like the staff and owners of a place that XXL has become nowadays.

Amsterdam 01 November 2010 A gay palce where a lot of straight couples goes as well. They change the decoration a bit and make more bars, even at the cruising area. I do not know, I have visited this place several times from 2005 to 2010 and must say i mist something and that is that typical gay atmosphere. It is for me more a place where youngsters ( who is bored and not gay) hanging out. Tourist are paying more than locals is the truth... not a place either to pick up somebody. Sorry, but Riga is not a gay place at all. Prices are expensive compare somewhere else...
