About
Bushwick's first lesbian bar opened here in 2021, owned by a BIPOC and LGBTQ+ woman-led team. The vibe shifts between high energy and low key depending on the night, with dancing, live entertainment, and a cocktail lounge feel.
"The music is great, the bartenders are attractive, the crowd is fun, and the happy hour deals are excellent."
The crowd trends 20s and 30s, and happy hour draws a social mix. It's trans-friendly and welcoming to everyone. The Delancey is nearby if you want to keep the night going.

It depends on the day, sometimes it's lively and other times it's more laid back. It's a good place to meet new people, dance, drink, and grab a bite to eat. The music is great, the bartenders are attractive, the crowd is fun, and the happy hour deals are excellent. The atmosphere can be rowdy at times but also swanky.
