Blackbook
Cocktail Lounge · Palm Springs, CA
About
A recent reviewer called it a 'hangout' kind of vibe, and that fits. Blackbook is a cocktail lounge with a mostly gay clientele, a full bar, and an outdoor patio that stretches out front. It's LGBTQ+-owned and women-led, serving comfort food alongside craft beer and signature cocktails. The crowd is mixed and easygoing, and the space itself feels like a well-designed living room.
Happy hour is a highlight here, drawing a friendly regular crowd. It's open daily from noon to midnight, making it a solid stop any time of day. The Arenas Road location puts you near other gay bars, but Blackbook's low-key energy is its own draw.
Located in the Arenas Road Area, Palm Springs's main gay nightlife strip, within walking distance of several other LGBTQ+ bars.
