I understand it is one of the best gay bars in San Antonio. I am not knocking it, I just didn't fit in. More

Over the weekend a gentleman named Gilbert Garza died after some type of incident with their security staff. Apparently there has been many issues with security at the Bonham, and while it remains as probably one of the best clubs to visit while in San Antonio - one must be careful as their security seems to be out of control,...

This is a repeat visit to the Bonham with a group of couples. Really fun dance club. 2 large dance floors and nice outdoor patio area. Drinks are reasonable and no cover if you get there early. More

Went one Saturday to check out the club out only to find it overrun by straight people I felt so out of place even got dirty looks. I've heard from other friends that have gone to the club tell me the same. I will never go back I'm just going to stick to "The Strip" More

This club is one of the more interesting ones I have ever been to. It occupies what appears to be an old mansion very close to the Alamo in downtown San Antonio. There are many rooms, bars, and a large dance floor. Patrons walk in through a large hallway which I am sure at one time entertained the elite of... More

We went to this place a few years ago and it was great! I am not sure what happened, but this place appears to longer be a gay establishment. It was overrun with "straight" teenagers, all of whom seem to have been intoxicated, and extremely rude. The staff was extremely rude as well. I saw open cocaine use in the... More
