Close Encounters

Last night was our first time at CE. We had a wonderful experience. We are very new to this and felt welcomed and respected. Thank you Gail and Peewee!!

Me and my wife had a great time thanks for showing love to out if towners Gail and pewpew we can’t wait to come back

Best place east of the Mississippi. Check it out. Anyone named Pee Wee is good with me!!

It is such a friendly place. Great bar tenders, and as a single female I feel safe at all times. Any issues you may have, just talk to the owners and they are more than happy help you any way they can.

We were visiting Gulfport from out of town and decided to give it a shot. We have plenty of experience with similar clubs in other cities. We found the Close Encounters club very welcoming. We visited Friday and enjoyed it so much that we changed our plans for Saturday to return. Pee Wee and Gail, the owners/hosts are fantastic, we really felt welcome from the moment we arrived. It didn't stop with the hosts, we met some very friendly, like-minded people both nights. Definitely a modern day speakeasy, strike up a conversation with anyone and the fun begins! Gorgeous Tiffany rocked the bar taking great care of us. Our Saturday night there was EPIC to say the least -- it never ended and we went straight from the club to after-party to the airport for our flight home. Thanks, we'll definitely be back the next time we are on the coast. T&C.

We love going to CE'S gale and peewee are friendly and make everyone feel welcome no matter what or who you are we ad a interracial cpl always feel like home there. Plus drink prices are very welcoming :)
