Who said it was a gay bar? The tagline of the article is totally misleading - the LW says the bar is "frequented by gay couples." The guy is from North Carolina! Probably any liberal hipster bar that exists is going to be frequented by the gay couples that manage to live there. There's plenty going on here - but there's nothing to indicate that this couple is going out of their way to attract gay attention.
