Review Summary

Champs Bar is widely celebrated as a vibrant, queer-friendly space that offers a welcoming atmosphere for sports fans, particularly during hockey games, and hosts popular themed events. While many visitors praise the friendly staff and the sense of community found within the venue, recent feedback highlights significant inconsistencies in service, including concerns regarding staff sobriety and professionalism. Additionally, while the location is favored for its social vibe and drink selection, patrons have raised serious issues regarding physical accessibility and dangerous bathroom door infrastructure, alongside shifting perceptions about the inclusivity and safety of the environment.

Reviews would be higher if they advertised as the queer bar they are on youtube. 90% of negative reviews are from straight men invading queer spaces or being blasted & showing up too drunk to serve.

Bar tenders were nice to me. Prices good. Many queers. Good time, safe time. Didnt try the food. Thanks yall.

Edit: I've been here a few more times since the first, when I made this review, & am now changing my review after hearing from friends & experiencing myself a lot of homophobia & rudeness from staff & other patrons as of late. IDing & asking the only visibly queer people to leave if they are not drinking alcohol & saying they are'sleeping' is crazy. This is definitely losing its reputation as a lesbian bar & I'm really disappointed.

Old review: Great drinks & such a friendly bartending staff. Queer night crowds are so kind & comfortable to be around. Bar staff was accomodating & so kind!!

I am in love with this place ! The people are super nice, the service is great & the atmosphere is perfect.
They have pool tables & plenty of space to sit & talk & make new friends. I highly recommend coming here, & they're super queer friendly.
I'll definitely be coming back.

I love champs so much. Every time I go here for queer events I have an amazing time. From markets, to drag shows, queer line dancing to even sports nights this place hosts a variety of events anyone would love! I'm especially a fan/regular for their spurs line dancing nights & the vibes are always on point. The staff is super friendly & this has become my go to bar in the city. (The addition of AC also is such a win for dance nights lol)

My friends & I went here after Osheaga on a Saturday. The bartenders were super friendly & the DJ played some killer 90s/early 2000s throwbacks. I felt very comfortable as a queer person. It's a sports bar but certainly doesn't feel like the typical boring subdued bar.
