Suite is a stylish gay bar with a local pub feel, the perfect place to go with some friends or for a party in a casual and welcoming atmosphere. This bar is known for its show tunes, nightly entertainment, and good bar food, providing a "home from home" for the local LGBTQ community. Events like drag karaoke are particularly popular as the queens keep everyone entertained and having a great time.
Phoenix Bar

The Phoenix regularly hosts themed events and parties, as well as live music, DJs, and go-go dancers, but it's best known for its jukebox full of the latest and greatest pop.
3 Dollar Bill

This is a space for joy and the largest queer venue in Brooklyn, a unique venue where everyone can express themselves and have a fabulous night.

Atlas Social Club
Happening saloon and open air cocktail bar in Hell's Kitchen with a retro athletic-club atmosphere that includes boxing and wrestling memorabilia. Atlas Social Club hosts different events each night, and whichever night you choose you can dance way into the early hours with happy hour cocktails and classic sports films playing as a backdrop. This low-key spot has a friendly crowd and a chill atmosphere to start your night.
True Colors
True Colors is one of the hottest gay spots in Jackson Heights, with an ironically decorated monochrome interior lit up with pulsating laser lights that flash to the beat of the music. The genres on offer range from salsa to reggaeton and Top 40, so there's something for all tastes. The crowd is mixed, as happy hour is popular with the older gays but late at night the bar is packed with a younger crowd.
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!
