Huge ups for the place that calls itself an eccentric little gay bar in Plaza-Midwood and sponsors the Charlotte Royals, the Queen Citys gay rugby team. (Gay rugby: who knew?) Open every night, DAKS features billiards, energetic music, drink specials and arcade-style games. Hot videos and cozy recesses let you get up close and steamy with your favorite guy. Specials change daily and include $6 all-you-can-drink Bud Light drafts, free pool until 10pm, and talent showcases hosted by the fine entertainers Brandy Alexander, Serena Mitchell and Sierra Santana.
