Barcode - Richmond

This place was okay. Your drinks are fine, and I think the vibe is very townie. It was very quiet on a Thursday night that could be something here in the south. It is worth checking.

Place is like a 90s living museum of gay life. Mismatch decor, lots of alcohol selection, smoking terrace, random amount at times. Food is surprisingly decent for a bar. Service is always fast.

I ordered some random drink thing I made up, with Henny and coke, and the bartender ensured that it was considerably more Hennessy than soda, folks like me appreciate that sort of thing. I also didn't eat here but the people who were eating here had food that looked amazing.

I have been coming here off and on for 5 years. The staff is largely unchanged and I love them all. You know they treat their staff well when they stick around. Totally accepting and non judgemental space. The food is amazing and presented like you are in a five star resort. The crowd on the weekdays is like cheers with a lot of regulars. Very easy to get to know people. Excellent, laid back, and rewarding place. Gay or straight, you need to come here. I do not work here and have no affiliation with Barcode. I'm just a loyal and happy patron.

Only moved to judgemond and this bar is very close to where I live. the staff and owners are all incredibly friendly and attentive. eating is phenomenal and literally everything I ordered was delicious. the drinks and eating are super-cheap. the regular and customers are all super friendly, inclusive, and fun! would recommend to anyone in the opposite or visit! patio in the back to cool, they will get fresh air and smoke for those who do. I will slowly become more regular!
