This is the place to unleash your inner kid. Gold spike is definitely my favorite bar in Downtown LV. Not only is it a lounge/bar it is also a GIANT adult playground. There are a variety of games like 4 square, weather ball, giant chess, twister, corn hole, darts among others.
You have the option of being inside or outside there are multiple DJ's and sometimes local bands. Drinks are reasonably priced especially if you compare the prices from the Strip.
Attire is pretty casual which makes I think makes it better than the bars on the strip. People are there to genuinely have let loose and have good time.
