1 Gay Bars in Reno, NV — LGBTQ+ Nightlife

A dive bar with stripper poles and a stage, this place has been Reno's gay hub since 1971. It's the longest-running gay bar in Nevada, and it shows its age with pride: rainbow banners, locally made art, and a genuinely unpretentious crowd. Drinks can feel pricey outside happy hour, but the double happy hour daily from 5PM to 9PM brings $3 well cocktails and $3 domestic drafts. Karaoke runs Tuesday through Thursday. Friday and Saturday the dance floor fills up and DJ Izer spins. Sunday is free-spin for aspiring DJs. The bar sits between 2nd and 1st St., close to the casinos. It's not a polished spot, but regulars say the friendly bartenders and welcoming attitude make up for it. Saturday nights are slammed and feel like a nightclub.
