Gay Bars in Phoenix, AZ

“Always a great night at this one of a kind lesbian catered bar.“

“Bar 1 has been my favorite LBGTQ+ bar since I moved to Phoenix in 2005. if you enjoy the patio scene, it's always full of interesting conversations you could jump into. Inside you have your choice, sit on the leather couches alongside the fireplace, stand, sit at the retro style bar table *yes its a full length table in one, made from concrete with plenty of bar stools to find a seat, even easier to jump into a conversation for as long as it lasts or sit comfortably, chat with anyone who came with you - there are also a few other tables you can sit at as well.. In additional there's a full bar to sit around where you can normally find someone interesting to talk to - where you or they initiate. The atmosphere if you enjoy relaxing with a drink, it incredible. Almost EVERY bar is dark with empty black ceilings showing all the air & water pipes. Not Bar 1, the ENTIRE ceiling is filled with all types of chandeliers & other lighting that will warm you as hot outside it or how many inside Bar 1, is always a perfect. You will notice as you come in is the 2 pool tables & Dart Boards if your feeling a little antsy do something ese for a while. OVERALL I find Bar 1 to be for me - if you enjoy extremely loud music to dance to, whether you can hear anyone talking to you or not - Bar 1 may not be your first choice, but it will become that to you at some point! Last, point is you can't blame Bar 1 for this however, you may find some a bit rude or snobbish, etc - these are the groupies that have known each other 4yrs old to their current age that can't seem to break away f hey wanted to. They will be very conversational with you until their group comes in, then they no longer know you the rest of the night (hence - groupies), thankfully there aren't too many, depends on the night - those evenings the could looks great & more intimate. Hope you make it in, it will become your hanging place after work forward. Thanks“

“This was a great place to hang out on New Year 2025. Met a lot of new friends and had a swinging good time. The service for getting drinks was challenging and the layout was cramped for the size if the crowd bartenders did an amazing job

Wheelchair accessibility: I dont think this place is to friendly for wheel chair folks. for them service would be best on the lower level but using the bathroom may pose a challenge“

“This place is awesome! Eclectic decor and very friendly staff and owners... makes you wanna come back. This is the oldest gay bar in AZ but it's really an everyone bar, so welcoming! No food but great drinks and snacks if you wish. There's different activities going on every night. Check them out on Facebook or Instagram

Parking: If the lot is full you can park at the post office across the street.

Wheelchair accessibility: Both entrances, bar and the restroom is wheelchair accessible.“

“We set up a Pop-Up at Rock Phoenix and it was awesome! The support was great, the patrons were nice, the employees were engaged and fast! We'll be back again soon to serve Arizona's Best Lumpia!“

“This is one of Phoenix's treasures. Always welcomed and a good time. If you're in the Phoenix area on a Wednesday night, this is the spot for good music, people and drinks“

“Nice music and atmosphere , but the place is too small especially when they host big events like Vaqueros.“

“I spent most of my time at the urinal catching up with someone I had never met. The main stage was doing something along the lines of karaoke, but it seemed to be the same person performing the entire time.

Vegetarian options: It's pretty much a meat market, so vegetarians beware.

Kid-friendliness: Ummmm..... you will probably want to leave the kiddo's at home for this one.“

“Kellie “the bartender” (female) could be a lot more welcoming and engaging. She walked in to attend the bar about 4 minutes after i walked in and sat down at the bar, to actually tend. Then she walks by me and tends to someone else who showed up after me. I'm sorry, but if you are a bartended, YOU should scope the landscape and see who is new, and handle that business first. KTIM. Ill be back friday to see how she improves.
No joke, i’ve been here for 45 min and its been 30 since i paid for my MODELO, and she hasnt taken my signed check, which she has seen and walked by at least 4/5 times….. not to mention she had time to be on her personal phone in the time i have been here.
Women shouldnt be at a gay bar, in my honest opinion. This is why. No attention to detail and clearly have pent up interpersonal feelings.
Update…1110pm 12/24/24 she finally took the receipt🤣😂😂“

“This the best taco truck in Phx.. I'll travel all over the city to eat here weekly lol! thank you Charlie's Taco for meeting the match to my Soul Food and allowing your business to create beautiful moments and memories with my family and friends. I'm happy every time I leave this place. it's my favorite spot to bring anyone everyone to eat after 7pm to 2am! thank you for the awesome good food and diligent work to keep your business going for me and thousands others. we appreciate you“

“Cute place. Had a drink with a friend and it’s a cute little gayborhood bar. Has darts and a good sized bar. Service was a little slow the night I was there but they were trying so I gave them points for that. I’d come back. Cozy and a local hangout it looks like. Parking is terrible though.“
