Friends of Hoist

The Pumping Station is a friendly Neighborhood bar.  Located in the Crosstown neighborhood at 1382 Poplar Av, the Pumping Station is open 7 days a week with a full service liquor bar that has over 60 beer choices and even local craft beer on tap.  We are proud to say that the “Pump” plays host to a diverse group of patrons and is welcoming to all. Features include a Pub Grub menu with Steak Night on Wednesdays, Pool table, relaxing patio and treehouse, and The Backdoor Lounge where smoking is permitted.  

Located at 1474 Madison Ave., Dru’s Bar is a neighborhood favorite, and a true friend and The home bar for Hoist. Join us at Dru's the 3rd Friday of each month of Hoist Club Night. All are welcome and encouraged to join us for club night wearing their leather and fetish gear while helping us revitalize our diverse leather and kink community. Dru's slogan on the building reads “Dru’s – Not just a bar… It’s your bar!” which rings true each time we step inside. Patrons are treated to a clean, comfortable atmosphere and friendly service.  If your looking for entertainment choices, Dru’s has you covered.  They have a great patio, Karaoke, live comedy, drag king, queen, and variety shows, 2 pool tables, darts, video games, jukebox, etc..  Dru’s is a beer bar which gives you the option to bring in the hard liquor of your choice. They will sell you the set-ups.  Don’t forget to check out their bar menu and tell them that the Hoist’ guys sent you!
