The bar was immaculately clean and professionally staffed.  The &quot;shining star&quot; of Friends was staffer, Ray B., who truly made me feel so at home!  In my 30+ years of gay bar socializing, I have never eaten such superior food.  Hats off to the cooking staff here.  I partook in Friends Easter Sunday Brunch, which was scrumptuous!  It was Greek in its theme and was mouth-watering!  As for its cocktails, Friends bartender, Ray B. mixes top notch Bloody Marys, which were potent and good and could not be beat!  I most certainly recommend Friends as a valley gay bar not to be missed!!  Wishing Ray B. and other staffers at Friends a thriving long life!  See you all when I make a return visit to the valley from 06/30/07 through 07/07/07!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;a href='http://phoenix.gaycities.com/bardetail/608/'&gt;Read more reviews at GayCities Phoenix&lt;/a&gt; and see photos, maps and reviews of Friends and other bars, hotels, events and restaurants&lt;/small&gt;</description>
