Check out their website below, but just so you know, it contains adult content and even adult videos!
Le 7
This bar is cute. It’s filled with an old-world charm. Roman statues and quirky decor await as you sip your drink. It’s a lively bar to get your drink and find a man for the night.
The backrooms consist of private cabins, a whirlpool, steam rooms, and showers. This place is the perfect place to get naked and relax (don’t worry, Le 7 has lockers.)
It even has a unique art deco-style theater perfect for those late-night shows.
I think I know which bar is first on my list!

Le Morgan is your typical sleazy place. It’s an adults-only venue with a bar and private cabins. Roam the dark mazes and see what you find within that dark corner.
Lay on a sling and wait for your mister right now or watch movies of the adult kind.
Le Morgan has fetish-themed nights. However, all other nights it’s mandatory naked or jock.
Although their Facebook page says they’re temporarily closed, they’re still posting events. It makes me wonder if they’re really closed?

One floor is a dark cruising maze, while the other is a video booth room. Word around the interwebs suggests this place is only six Euros to cruise and its busiest in the afternoons.
Although it’s a petite place, rest assured, men come here to get a little action on the side.
G.I. currently doesn’t have a website or Facebook page, but I went to give you guys a first-hand experience. It’s a great little shop, not super over-the-top or fantastic but great nonetheless.
