Set in beautiful Bucks County, Pennsylvania just 45 minutes north of Philadelphia, The Cartwheel offers the only dancing experience (gay), in that area. The Cartwheel delivers with five indoor bars, an outside bar and a large dance floor. The music is largely “house”, with a DJ that knows what the crowd wants. The floor is never deserted, which could be one of it’s downfall - at times you are packed in like sardines; but that doesn’t stop the clientele from having a ball! It’s one of the only clubs on this review tour, where a tremendous non-dancing crowd stands around the floor just to watch. The light show is not bad, but could be better. It’s a bit heavy on the strobe lights that at times get down-right annoying; but again, with the great music and fun-loving crowd, it’s easy to overlook. The best way to experience this club is to go with a friend or group of friends. Since most of the patrons are there to have fun, not to find love, going alone could afford you a night by yourself. Monday nights at 11pm, The Cartwheel offers a tremendously popular drag show contest of professional-quality drag. These show start between 10pm and 10:45pm. So if in the New Hope area, NAJM recommends a day of shopping the downtown, dinner at The Raven (see the Damron Address Book), and dancing at The Cartwheel.You won’t regret the trip!
