Pegasus is fun and comfortable - and the "Are You Smarter Than A Scottish Guy" trivia on Thursdays is easily the best trivia in the city. Bartenders are friendly and fun. Just overall a good place to start or end a night, or spend a whole evening socializing. This was the absolute first gay bar I ever visited and it could not have been a better introduction to the community. I will always come back because it's like coming home for me now.
Excellent service and good atmosphere. Lately the drink prices are astronomical here. $11.00 plus tip for a bottle of Stella. This is Robbery and pure greed. RIDICULOUS! It’s a shame. This bar is a neighbourhood fixture but won’t be for long if the drink prices remain this high. The rest rooms are also starting to look a little tired. They’ve lasted for 30 years so it’s time for a refresh.
I’ve come here a few times on my own for a drink, and the experience really seems to depend on who’s behind the bar. There are a couple of staff members who are consistently friendly, nothing over the top, just small things like asking how your day’s been or a bit of light conversation, which makes a big difference and feels welcoming. However, with other staff, the service can feel quite cold. I’m not expecting long conversations, especially when it’s busy, but the difference stands out when you see them being warm and chatty with other guests, while interactions with me feel very minimal and almost robotic. It’s not a major issue, but it does affect the overall atmosphere and whether you feel comfortable staying for another drink. For comparison, I went to the Eagle afterwards and the contrast in friendliness was noticeable, staff there made me feel genuinely welcome.
If you’re looking for a bar with great energy, great people, and consistently great service, Pegasus is it! Simon’s trivia nights on Thursday are consistently smart, funny and well-paced. Clearly crafted by someone who actually cares about the experience. It’s the kind of trivia that keeps you coming back week after week not just because it’s challenging, but because it’s genuinely fun and welcoming. The service is always top-tier. Drinks come quickly, the vibe is relaxed, and the staff clearly take pride in what they do. The pool tables are another bonus - they're affordable, well-maintained, and actually playable (which is rarer than it should be).
