About

Bar: Full barBest nights: Wed, Fri, Sat

You might expect a lakeside resort bar to be straight-leaning, but Beacon Bar and Grill at Camp Richardson Resort has long been popular with lesbians and gay men. This laid-back American spot serves up lunch and dinner with a full bar, and the Sunday brunch is a known highlight. It's a mixed LGBTQ-straight crowd, so you'll fit in whether you're with a partner or a group of friends.

The menu features seafood and American classics, and the Rum Runner cocktail is a signature. The outdoor deck offers Tahoe lake views, but note the venue may be permanently closed, so call ahead. If you're in the area, Driftwood Cafe is another local favorite for breakfast.
