Gay Bars in Washington, DC

“Spark Social House DC is the hottest new hangout spot in DC! Thank you for providing a safe environment for everyone! 🫶🏻“

“Great place to grab a drink and meet new people and don’t forget the amazing brunch every Saturday and Sunday 11:00 and 1:00pm.“

“owners Stephen and Mark have created an amazing space with one of the best staffs in DC!“

“Some of the friendliest bar staff I’ve ever encountered. Totally relaxed atmosphere, great drink specials, safe neighborhood.“

“My favorite place to go in DC. Downstairs is chill vibes where you can actually speak and be heard. I love downstairs because upstairs is kind of like a club scene, which I loved when I was in my 20s. Bartenders and staff are very friendly and restrooms can be crowded but they’re clean! Very classy place
And I appreciate the two separate floors with the different vibes!“

“Beautiful lgbtq bar in Washington DC!! #DC All are welcome. #lgbtqia“

“Went to Trade tonight and I was amazed with the music in the back room. The crowd was great and it was unbelievable they didn’t charge a cover to get in! If you’re gay and looking for a good time like the days of Town, you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Plus, the customers are the good looking crowd from Vida, etc. Definitely worth making Trade your night spot. Well done and thanks! It’s definitely worthy of a stellar review! 💯“

“I love this bar. Great atmosphere and crowd is friendly and likes to have fun. The staff have always been friendly and even Security is friendly…“

“Love this place. Great bar“

“It’s a leather bar. It is a small space, can’t help that but the crowd was enjoying that. There was a line for entry so better planning will be required for next time. Drink pours were good. Upstairs had a different feel from the ground floor which is appreciated and felt like different spaces to be in. They know what they are aiming to be.“

“A solid gay bar for men.
Downstairs they play appropriate/good music & videos; drinks are strong and reasonably priced; bartenders are hardworking and nice to look at.
Clientele is mostly men (thank god); various ages/demographics make for a nice mix and some potential hook ups.

Upstairs can be hit or miss music wise. A nice space for dancing, good air conditioning and again a solid bar/drink experience.
Restrooms with working stall doors and fairly clean are much appreciated...“

“My basic Thursday was made splendid by Pitchers staff. I didn't get the lady security guard name, but she has a great personality and gave me recommendation food. (Thank you, the burger was 🔥) Miguel the bartender greeted me right away and the drinks were delicious and festive. Miguel's personality and customer service is Top notch.
I also enjoyed listening/laughing at the Trivia game that night as well.

Thank you, I'll be back .“

“Affordable shots, beautiful spaces!! Different rooms were playing different music. The main floor had an option to request a song. I didn't love the music selection though, it was hard to keep a vibe going. When the room is fully packed, there wasn't much you could do but stand around, and where we did have some dancing room, the music was all wack. Anyway, love lesbians and hope to come back for a better time!!“

“You want a nice urban spot to celebrate the LGBTQ culture, then come here for great drinks and more great drinks. Karaoke on Wednesday’s be lit. Bring your voice because DC is definitely not playing. No food is served here, but right next door is ZBurger. Trust me you will love it.

You to party with a crowd come ending of week and weekend. Wanna chill Sunday thru Wednesday is the days to come. Either day it is a good time.“

“Great staff, good drinks, friendly atmosphere“
