This is a small bookstore -- only a few token movies and toys upfront. I'm almost certain it makes its money entirely on the theaters.
Crowd: Couples make an appearance from time to time, but you can always count on guys to be there. Lots of blue-collar working-class men, occasionally in a uniform. Also find Average Joes looking for a quick .
Neighbourhood: Port Sutton

From intersection of U.S. Highway 41 (50th Street) and State Road 60 (Adamo Drive), head south on 41 for approximately 5 miles. It will be on your right immediately after you pass Madison Avenue (look for the Circle K).

- Hours:24 hours
Best times: Friday and Saturday nights, after 8 p.m. It'll either be hoppin' or completely dead. There's no middle ground. - Cruising Info/ Tips:I've had the best luck playing in the small room (between the first theater and the third). There's a large television that shows the movie, and you can easily crouch (or stand, depending what you're seeking) beside it in darkness until someone comes along to play.
Cruisiest Spots: Theaters are the best place -- OK, the only place -- to play. There are three -- two big rooms and one small one. The first big one is when you walk in -- it has several dark corners that are perfect for some privacy. The second big one is all the way in the back. There was ample room for a very hot circle jerk the last time I was there ... a guy stripped nude and wanted us all to on his body. We did, and we had all the time and privacy in the world. - Nudity / Policy:Gay friendly ... last time I was there, the clerks didn't bother anyone
- Wheelchair Accessible:No
- Warnings:This shop reportedly is (but perhaps no longer is) owned by a local man who was arrested on child pornography charges in 2005. Ethical concerns of giving your money to such a person aside, there's a possibility that the police are still watching the establishment.
