A First-Timer’s Guide to Queer Nightlife in Seattle

👠 Queer Bar

1518 11th Avenue

Might as well start with the bar named Queer Bar.

Organized around a long catwalk, Queer Bar has become the defacto drag bar in Capitol Hill. They host drag multiple nights of the week, alongside karaoke, burlesque, and bingo events. Expect chiller evenings with lots of locals on the weekdays. But on the weekends, it becomes a full-scale party. Note: Their big mural devoted to Bosco and Irene DuBois, Queer Bar cast members who graduated to being RuPaul’s Drag Race girls. Also: Burgers. Snatch dinner here. It’s good.

Mx. is Queer Bar’s signature event. Every Friday and Saturday, catch a large cast of local queens often performing with touring RuPaul’s Drag Race queens. Remember: Transport tips, and don’t just tip the Ru girls.
