MY BAR + Pizza and more!- LGBTQ Friendly Hot Spot

Growing up in Kona, I did not have access to many queer spaces. Because of that, I didn't really except my sexuality or gender fluidity for quite some time. I moved to the mainland when I was 19, but if I had stayed in Kona and started going here after turning 21, I would have felt immediately accepted and loved and seen. Wonderful atmosphere, incredibly cool vibes.

This bar is so much more than a place to grab a drink – it’s a safe, welcoming space where everyone feels celebrated. 🌈 The staff are incredibly kind, the cocktails are top-notch, and the vibe strikes the perfect balance between fun and laid-back.

What really sets it apart is its heart. From drag shows to pride events and community fundraisers, they don’t just support the LGBTQ community – they champion it. If you’re looking for a spot that’s inclusive, vibrant, and full of love, this is the place to be. 🥂✨

Went to My Bar for the first time last week. Was excited to finally go to a gay bar on big island after living in Hilo for a few years. Went with a group of 5 on a Friday night. It was pretty quiet at 8pm, staff was nice and drinks were good. We played some pool at the pool table but had to stop due to a creepy straight guy sitting by us eyeing the two girls in our group, we moved outside but were followed by more straight guys who immediately sat by us and we're nonchalantly touching the girls. We told them to leave us alone and went back to the bar to close our tabs and order a cab.

Straight guys kept bothering the girls while we were at the bar until me and my other male friend had to get in their face and tell them not to touch her. Then as we waited out front another dude pulled up and was revving his engine super loudly while staring at us creepily. Kept staring us down until we got in Uber and drove away??

Really disappointed, the straight guys here were worse than any of the regular bars in Hilo. I'll probably be back next time they have an event here, though I wish they had bouncers here to keep creepy straight men in check.

Im a straight man who went to this bar for karaoke. On this night, they didnt have it, my misunderstanding. On the way out, someone waived and said goodbye to me and my family. I thought that was pretty rude. For having On the door, if you dont accept all these groups of people, youre not welcomed. From the sounds of it, straight people aren't allowed in the LGBTQ bar. Pretty ironic. I guess you want support and love but dont show it yourself.

Always cover charge every night on the weekends

Fun bar, not that crowded when we were there.

An amazing bar with different nightly events. Each time I visit I run into locals that i’ve meet before and meet new people. The owners obviously work so hard to bring the community together to feel safe and welcomed in Kona. It’s a must if you are visiting. Aloha!

You should probably mention on your site when there is a $20,00 cover.

What a great place to go and have fun. And just enjoy life with a bunch of good people. Love it there and the bartender is awesome.
