One of the city's most happenin' gay hot spots, Blake's is the mellow place where you can start off your night before heading to more raucous after-hours nightclubs such as Backstreet. This bustling watering hole offers a great place for a drink after a day at nearby Piedmont Park, with a screened porch upstairs that provides both a break from the bustling action inside and a prime spot for people watching.

Known for a staff that's equally loaded with attractiveness and attitude, the club is essentially a neighborhood bar for the 'Queer Eye For The Straight Guy' set, with DJs spinning the wheels of steel as sexy video clips are shown on big-screen TVs. Frequented by a fashionable young crowd that seems a bit heavier on style than substance, the joint can get hopping on theme nights such as Movie Madness and drag shows. On Friday nights, Blake's plays host to "Bingo with Bubba," where Bubba D. Licious -- one of Atlanta's most popular drag queens -- pulls the balls for the popular number game.
