***** Seriously?
Posted: September 08, 2009
Dang! where do u start! This place is more a bear bar than a Leather bar - If you're looking for the perfect mix of VERY Large big tittied shirtless bears, Mullet wearing guys with small to medium sized dicks, naked old guys with SAGGING ARSES, NELLY drunk mexican btms then you've hit the jack pot! Houston maybe the 4th largest city in the nation but it's the world largest trailer park! - hands down - This place was like no other leather bar its more like viewing sad acts of desperation in play. Its the best afterhours B'cause one is a drug den (SouthBeach) then u have this place. Houstons "GAY" night life is on life support and someone should do the humane thing and trip over the cord. I spent a week here before moving to London and it appears to be official that Houston rather gay houston is a border town OVER RUN with drunk nelly/VERY fem mexican bottoms doing just bout anything for a drink - Seriously? I better understand the much older white guy with the latin lover? w/e? At times I felt I was in a gay retirement community. This was the most bored I've ever been. Oh and the Bar/bear tenders? T-I-R-E-D! could not get the order correct, way too busy talking to friends and trying to cruise guys - way 2 work for a tip

***** It's everything they say.....
Posted: August 26, 2009
It's everything all previous reviewers say, but the large patio deck is now remodeled, clean and not so dark. I can remember when we used to have contests to see how many d**ks we could pull out and s... Those days are long gone. ;-0 It's still real, fun and friendly, in it's own way!

***** Great After Hours
Posted: May 30, 2009
This bar is free from attitude and it can be a lot of fun. The drinks are good and the prices are great. Try it out it's different but fun.

***** Grrrrrrrowlllll!
Posted: October 25, 2008
When I lived in Houston the Ripcord was my home bar as well. - On a recent visit, I was pleased to see that though it has altered its physical space somewhat, it retained all that was good from the "old days" - Good service, good drinks, and a crowd of Leathermen to rev up the erotic imagination into high gear!
