La Kama is a cocktail bar and cafe that's pretty new on the scene in Chueca but already making a name for itself. Attractive and often topless waiters are unsurprisingly a draw for gay visitors, but they also serve the best cocktails around which is always a bonus! The music is a diverse mix of genres and videos are always playing on screens around the bar. La Kama is open every day for casual drinks before a night of clubbing.

This flamboyant showbar hosts drag shows daily featuring talented queens, plus regular adult shows as well. LL has been serving a gay community of Madrid for 25 years and has remained popular thanks to its fabulous energy. Something different is going on every night, but no matter the theme or show, LL aims to make you feel at home. Be sure to visit for a night out like no other.

La Kama's sister bar is a lively disco bar that attracts a mixed crowd of all ages. It's a popular place to start a night out, especially at weekends. Expect a wide range of cocktails including classic mojitos and enormous sharing margaritas that are a speciality here. All your drinks are served by hot and friendly staff.

Calm and subtle lighting creates an atmosphere at Gris that's hard to describe. It's a small space that fills up at weekends, maintaining a slightly old fashioned but stylish vibe. The music is generally rock and punk, complete with the occasional live tribute band and consistently cheap drinks served at the bar. Gris is straight-friendly and becoming popular with a hipster crowd.

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.

This new bar on the scene in the Chueca gay neighbourhood seeks to be a unique alternative to the other older bars and clubs in the area. Labels don't exist here. Everyone is welcome to visit for a quality drink and a fresh new atmosphere that's brought to life by amazing music. THICK is busiest at weekends when it fills with a perfectly mixed and energetic crowd.
