Ginger's Bar

Ginger's Bar, 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY, USA

Casual lesbian bar with a homely and intimate feel thanks to pool table, happy hours, and an outdoor patio. Ginger's is the lone lesbian bar left in Park Slope, and although crowds here often include straights and men, the focus remains on the ladies, who return for the dance parties on Fridays, Bingo on Sundays, karaoke on alternating Thursdays and one of the best happy hours in town.

Barrage

More low-key than other gay bars in Hell's Kitchen, Barrage is the perfect place to relax with friends and enjoy a few drinks. It's a quieter alternative to the louder dance clubs, and the friendly bartenders and clientele add to the relaxed vibe here. Good happy hour deals resurface in the later in the night, so you can enjoy cocktails in a stylish bar decorated with pictures of male models and live your best gay life!

West Side Club

Located in the heart of Chelsea, West Side Club attracts the hottest men in town. Unwind in one of the lounges after a night of clubbing or explore cruising halls full of fit and muscular men. If you're a bear or an admirer, this is the perfect place to cruise at any time of day or night. Everything is clean, staff are friendly, and there are private rooms to rent with your favourite guys.

Albatross Bar

Albatross Bar is the oldest Gay Bar in Queens, with a local pub vibe and a loyal crowd. It was originally a lesbian bar but has changed over the years and is now proud to welcome everyone.

For a more relaxed but still sociable time, you can visit on a night with karaoke or a TV viewing party.
