The Rip Cord - A long-time iconic leather bar in the center of the famous Gay Mecca Montrose-Houston area. Always familiar & fresh faces, & bodies, for your pleasures. A spacious patio provides privacy for your brief encounter, or even a break - if that's your thing. The handsome bartenders' generosity will sooth your rattled nerves, while keeping a friendly, watchful eye on your sobriety - he is indeed your good friend. Leather &/or denim is the preferred dress code, but come as you are & they'll "take care you", the Rip-Cord-Way. Long-time patron, GaryQVV

Unpretentious as most leather bars are, and very friendly staff. Parking is a nightmare as ripcord does snot have onsite parking but other than that great friendly place!

Oh Boy Says this country boy!!!!

I loved the beer and the attention I got. I got to be the center of attention on the patio. I will be a regular here when I get to come out.
