Lesbian & LGBTQ+ guide to Bainbridge Island

“This was definitely one of the more fun bars I’ve been to while in Seattle. Diverse crowd, great music. Could do better about having restroom stalls for cis women.”

“I’ve been a regular here for about 7 years, from the “we’ll never charge a cover” era to the current cover charge with DJ nights and touring Flex events. Through all the changes, it’s still one of the most affordable and consistent neighborhood bars on the hill. The pours are strong, bartenders are solid, and you can still get an $8 double well or a $10 mid-shelf double pour, which is rare these days. There are also good options if you want low or no ABV drinks. Bartenders can feel a bit stiff on very busy nights, which makes sense to get through lines, but overall service is dependable. I haven’t agreed with every change over time—especially the decision to remove water stations and limit free access during events—but I really appreciated seeing they’ve now installed a bottle/glass filler, which they’re still connecting. That feels like a meaningful step toward accessibility. Still one of my go-to spots on the hill. Always a good vibe. Side note- only food option is mini Pringle cans, bring your own takeout order.”

“It was my first time at the venue and it will not be my last. Attended an event there last night and It was absolutely amazing!”
