Neighbours
This Capitol Hill favourite has been hosting a party for the queer community since 1983. It's one of the longest standing and largest mixed LGBTQ+ nightclub in the city, a multi-level complex full of dancing and a great energy. A total of 4 bars are spaced throughout the venue serving delicious drinks and great food, plus newly renovated patio and lounge areas and a basement dance floor. Neighbours attracts a younger crowd.
Diesel
Diesel is Seattle's premier bar for bears and their admirers, and it's completely gay owned and operated so the friendly staff know how to make your night enjoyable. The bar is proud to be "by bears, for bears", conveniently located in the Capitol Hill neighbourhood where you can find your crowd. It has a heavy masculine influence but a laidback vibe that makes everyone feel at home, from stereotypical bears and bikers to those who just want to meet them.
Pony
Pony has a slightly vintage dive bar feel as the club is housed in a 1930s gas station, but the space has been transformed to suit the modern LGBTQ+ community in all its glory. Whoever chooses the music has a perfectly diverse taste, from hip hop to pop, that keeps the dance floor going into the early hours. Unique features such as a retractable roof and a fire pit put Pony firmly on the map all year round.
C C Attle's
CC's is known for its strong drinks and good food, and it's long been a safe place in the already super queer Capitol Hill neighbourhood. Seattle's gay community has been coming here to party for years, taking advantage of classic pub food and quality cocktails. You can enjoy your food and drinks in a laid back atmosphere that hosts regular entertainment such as open mic nights, or just chill outside on the patio.
Unicorn & Narwahl
Unicorn and its sibling bar Narwhal stand loud and proud in the heart of Capitol Hill. Each bar is extravagantly carnival themed, with quirky and colourful decor, pinball arcade, photo booth, and even carnival themed food. All this food and drink, including magical themed cocktails, is created and served with a bit of humour to match the truly unique space. Events are hosted here regularly, serving as an escape from life's stresses.
