Popular cruising bars in
Madrid
Boyberry Madrid
A favourite cruising spot in Madrid, Boyberry is the place to go for cheap drinks and a super friendly but hot atmosphere. It offers something different to classic dark cruising spaces, bringing a refreshingly modern twist to the scene. Boyberry offers the usual favourites such as peep holes, cabins, and darkroom but alongside these you can find an adult shop and full bar with friendly staff.
HOT Bears Bar
HOT has a strong legacy as one of the first bears bars in Spain. It remains super popular and a place for Madrid's bear community to come together over a drink and continue their night together in the large and cruisey dark room. DJs provide the entertainment each night, and alongside great service and a fun crowd, they keep the bar at the top of the list for local bears.
STRONG
Located in the heart of gay Madrid, this is a men's only dance bar with lots to offer. There's a huge dance floor and full bar plus loads of cruising spaces. Take advantage of a labyrinth, cabins, and adult videos playing on large screens. Strong is always busy but it's particularly packed for parties every Saturday night. There's no dress code as such but clothes don't tend to be an issue for long…
ATTACK Club
Infamous on the gay scene, ATTACK is a popular cruise and fetish club that attracts both loyal locals and curious tourists. Across 4 areas you can find what you're into, whether that's chatting to guys at the bar or moving straight to the cruising zones. There's a dungeon, slings, showers, and loads more to keep you busy. ATTACK hosts regular themed nights that cater to a wide range of fetish crowds.
Step Madrid
Step Madrid (formerly known as The Paso) is an institution on the Chueca gay scene, having been catering to the bear community for years. It's busy all week but particularly at weekends, when a fun and friendly crowd flocks to the bar and music videos are playing on large screens. There's no attitude here so everyone can feel comfortable, including in the small dark room in the back of the bar.
Naked Bar Madrid
With a not-so-subtle name, Naked is a dedicated gay leather and fetish bar popular with older men. There's a dress code every night and it rarely mentions clothes, but there are occasional themed nights such as swimwear or sportswear. Two floors of cruising promise an unforgettable experience, with facilities such as darkroom, beds, slings, and large film screens. Entrance even includes two drinks.
