Gay/Lesbian entertainment in New York City

  1. A

    Starlight Bar & Lounge

    A funky mix of Chelsea boys and East Village artistes cross paths in this pleasantly overcrowded bar, with room to relax in the back lounge. The all-female bartender crew work the crowd and Sunday night ('Starlette') is widely considered one of the best lesbian events in the city. Wednesday is queer comedy night, hosted by funny man Keith Price.

    Chi Chiz

    A small Christopher St favorite, especially for African-American gays, Chi Chiz offers the best drinking deal in the Village: everything half price from 14:00 until closing on Sundays. Monday its karaoke, Tuesday its bingo, and it's a favorite late-night munchie hangout any day of the week.

    Cattyshack

    Two floors of pulsing beats, raw industrial views and a queer friendly atmosphere that's mainly for the ladies but also welcoming to gays, trannies and heterosexuals. Weekend nights turn into a dance party; weeknights tend to be slower and more communal.
