The Dallas Eagle

The Grapevine bar is a beloved dive that has been voted both "Best Straight Bar" and "Best Gay Bar" so it's home to a truly mixed crowd. The interior combines ridiculous and mismatched furnishings to create a totally unique space, complete with skulls, stained glass, and a tacky pool table. The colourfully lit patio space even has a basketball half court because why not?! The crowd is strange in the best way, and strong cheap drinks guarantee an interesting night.

Sue Ellen's has been a staple in Dallas' queer nightlife since 1989. It's an icon that stands among many of the city's other most popular LGBTQ+ clubs and is advertised as a predominantly lesbian bar. Sue Ellen's hosts live bands throughout the week, karaoke on Mondays and dances every night beneath the compulsory disco glitter ball. On Sundays, the bar is more relaxed, and people gather to play skeeball, pool and darts, or hang out on the patio.

Everyone is always welcome at Dallas Woody's, the friendliest sports bar in Dallas. You can stop by seven days a week to catch the game on one of the many TVs or check out the extensive line up of live entertainment. There's karaoke, show tunes sing alongs, and comedy, and a great group of regulars and staff to enjoy your time with in a place where everyone knows your name.

Round-up is a large country and western dance club with a total of twelve fully stocked bars and plenty of hot cowboys, so even if you don't love country music you can still enjoy yourself! The space doubles as a dance hall that hosts lessons in line-dancing, plus charity events and themed nights. Premium tequila is the speciality drink here, with a great range to choose from and an amazingly old school mixed crowd to enjoy it with.

This long time favourite has been a staple in the Dallas gay scene for 50 years. Its karaoke is the best in the city and incredibly popular, drawing crowds every Thursday and Sunday for a good old sing along. Aside from karaoke, there are other events on offer throughout the week from movie viewings to potluck, so you'll find something different every time you walk in the door, plus you can enjoy a range of beers and cocktails.

At night, this restaurant and bar turns into a fabulous club where the music is great, hot bartenders serve amazing cocktails, and food is included in the cover charge! There is always a variety of music nights on offer from Latin to Hip Hop and the crowd comes dressed to impress. The club is packed with people who flock here for super cheap drinks and a very popular happy hour.
