The bar went on the market months ago for $79,000.

This news comes on the heels of a new era for the city’s oldest lesbian bar, My Sister’s Room located in East Atlanta, which recently was sold and just completed some renovations and reopened on Jan. 7 and is set to open Jan. 14 as a sports bar while also keeping its popular nightlife lineup.
