The Cock

“There's history all over the walls of this 1826 building, like mid-century maps, tattered emblems, and newspaper clippings. One of the oldest bars in the city, it's been a gay bar since the 1960s and played a role in the early gay rights movement. But it’s welcoming and wonderful for anyone who craves a dark ale at a dimly lit mahogany bar. In 1966, three years before the Stonewall riots, patrons staged a sip-in at Julius', protesting discriminatory city laws, a significant moment in the history of gay rights.”
