On top of that, I think you'll be hard pressed to find a cleaner bar than Spurs.  The place is immaculate, and the rest rooms are spotless.  They even recently built on a new addition that caters to the leather crowd.  The owners are constantly improving the place and listening to their patrons for ideas.  Karaoke night on Thursday is a blast.  They do have drink specials, and the drinks are a decent size for the money.  There is also NEVER a cover charge.  I feel lucky to have such an outstanding facility in the Tampa Bay Area.  It may not be for everyone, but most will be impressed.  You might even meet some new friends.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;a href='http://tampa.gaycities.com/bardetail/1348/'&gt;Read more reviews at GayCities Tampa Bay&lt;/a&gt; and see photos, maps and reviews of Spurs and other bars, hotels, events and restaurants&lt;/small&gt;</description>

            <title>It's a GREAT little country bar</title>
            <link>http://tampa.gaycities.com/bardetail/1348/</link>
            <description>&lt;span title='5 stars'&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.gaycities.com/images/icons/star_yellow.gif&quot; alt=&quot;*&quot; width=&quot;17&quot; height=&quot;16&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.gaycities.com/images/icons/star_yellow.gif&quot; alt=&quot;*&quot; width=&quot;17&quot; height=&quot;16&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.gaycities.com/images/icons/star_yellow.gif&quot; alt=&quot;*&quot; width=&quot;17&quot; height=&quot;16&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.gaycities.com/images/icons/star_yellow.gif&quot; alt=&quot;*&quot; width=&quot;17&quot; height=&quot;16&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.gaycities.com/images/icons/star_yellow.gif&quot; alt=&quot;*&quot; width=&quot;17&quot; height=&quot;16&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; BobAndAlbert 0/&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Spurs is a great little country bar...and here's why:
1) There is an INSIDE bar where the dancing happens and an outside &quot;tiki&quot; bar for socilizing.
2) There's no smoking in the inside bar - a big plus for those that don't like smokey bars.
3) All the songs are now on a laptop - so the sound is clean, clear and there is A LOT of selection.
4) There are FREE dance lessons on Thursday and Friday nights (Usually start right at 8pm).
5) It's a FRIENDLY bar - no clique's or egos.
6) It's not a &quot;bar-fly-friendly&quot; bar. Meaning, you won't find the 9-10 &quot;drunks&quot; always sitting in the same barstools everytime you're there - and who usually become obnoxious round 11pm ahah.
7) It's not a &quot;tweeker&quot; bar. Meaning, those who seem to relish in taking any one (or more) of the &quot;Alphabet drugs&quot; USUALLY aren't Country Music lovers - so no worries about walking into the bathroom and seeing guys doing drugs!
8) It's a &quot;Mature&quot; bar. Meaning, there are folks of all ages that go (25-55 age range). Most of the folks that go are ADULTS in teh way they act and talk. So, you won't find alot of &quot;circuit bois or twinks&quot; skipping around.

It's not a HUGE bar by any means. But, that's one of the reasons its fun to go - its small, intimate, fun and the drinks are priced fairly and made well!

If you LIKE country music - it's a great bar.
If you LIKE country line dancing - its really your ONLY choice in town.

NO I'M NOT AN OWNER OR EMPLOYEE! ahahah

PS: They now have Karaoke on thursday nights! Its fun!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;a href='http://tampa.gaycities.com/bardetail/1348/'&gt;Read more reviews at GayCities Tampa Bay&lt;/a&gt; and see photos, maps and reviews of Spurs and other bars, hotels, events and restaurants&lt;/small&gt;</description>

The funny thing is they call it a country bar... but it's so f'ing small.. you can't two-step... and too crowded on the inside which forces you outside on their patio.. which is so damn muggy, especially since you are wearing jeans and cowboy attired.  who wants to pay $4.50 for a domestic beer... This place bites ass. I do not recommend it at all..&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;a href='http://tampa.gaycities.com/bardetail/1348/'&gt;Read more reviews at GayCities Tampa Bay&lt;/a&gt; and see photos, maps and reviews of Spurs and other bars, hotels, events and restaurants&lt;/small&gt;</description>

This club is 1/4 the size and has nothing unique about it.  The decor is lacking in Country theme and the crowds just aren't there.  I heard it was owned by the people that owned and closed Wrangler's, but they didn't bring the same quality and spirit to the area and it's disappointing.  I found Wrangler's to be a type of Anchor gay bar for Tampa Bay, but Spurs won't be.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;a href='http://tampa.gaycities.com/bardetail/1348/'&gt;Read more reviews at GayCities Tampa Bay&lt;/a&gt; and see photos, maps and reviews of Spurs and other bars, hotels, events and restaurants&lt;/small&gt;</description>

Friday nights are particularly festive at Spurs.  You can come early for linedance lessons or come later and dance till your feet hurt.  Everyone is very friendly, especially if you like to dance or want to learn, you can make many friends easily.  If you are gay, or enjoy country-western dancing, or linedancing, you will have fun at Spurs.  In other words, you do not have to be gay to have a great time there, nor do you have to be a country fan.  If you just take the lesson and dance a couple songs, you will have more fun than you thought possible.  There are always handsome cowboys there as well as some cowgirls and some non-westerners as well.  I have only been there on Friday, but they are open on Thurs thru Sunday.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;a href='http://tampa.gaycities.com/bardetail/1348/'&gt;Read more reviews at GayCities Tampa Bay&lt;/a&gt; and see photos, maps and reviews of Spurs and other bars, hotels, events and restaurants&lt;/small&gt;</description>
