i was invited out to the bar by my friend for my first ever drag show and it was a blast! all of the queens had an amazing energy that was infectious to the crowd. the service was also stellar, being fast, attentive, and serving excellent cocktails at a reasonable price. the DJ was also excellent and played very fun music to further energize the crowd. my only caveat is that sometimes there is nudity from the queens so if that isn't your thing be warned and check the list to see who is performing that night

Just a big shout out to the Werk Wednesday crew at Queer Bar who are creating a fun, enjoyable, and safe place for dancers, musicians, and some up-and-coming performers. Let's break down why this is a mid-week, must-attend. First, it's Queer Bar. There is an inherent relaxed, safe, and genuinely lovely vibe here as all types of people show up. The venue can get crowded very quickly, and some special theme nights or performances have covers, so I strongly suggest you double check your times and get there early. Or, better yet, just make a reservation for a bar hightop or a runway booth -- very reasonably priced. Second, food is basic pub fare and reasonably priced and tasty. If you need a base for the drinks, you'll find it here. And the drinks are poured by really relatable and nice people who actually remember what you like from prior visits. Third, and finally -- a huge shout out to Werk Wednesday regular hosts/emcees (and performers) Kitty Glitter and Lyon who know how to get the crowds engaged. They're personable, nice, and great artists who know how to dance as well as make it fun for everyone. A great combination of talent in these two. If you attend enough you'll start to see some regular performers (or enjoy the beats of great DJs). And don't forget the "walk-off" where winner takes all. Werk Wednesday is not your basic gay bar scene. Only come if you want to break out of mediocrity and into something fresh.

I saw the Mothership Drag Show. Thurs at 10pm. I stumbled onto this Gay Bar (I'm straight) to ask about live entertainment or if they have a DJ. Luckily they only charge $5, a Bargain. So I went in. I got a virgin Juice mix of pineapple, Guava and orange juice. It was expensive for a short glass at $5. But I paid it since cover was cheap. Going into Gay bars is great for a solo woman. I'm by myself. I won't have to worry about getting hit on by men. They are playing Rupaul's Drag reality show on their TV screens as oppose your typical Sports. I don't like watching sports except for the Olympics. So this is a fun place for me to come. A guy comes around to break your bills to $1s to throw or tip the drag queens.

This bar is the perfect place to crowd watch RuPaul's drag race or catch a drag show DAWLING! Often I shamelessly eat chicken fingers and send ones flying towards the incredible performers. While drinks are not fancy the bartenders are always kind and the house red or rosé are delicious.

Balancing out the negative reviews I'm seeing by saying I have *never* felt anything but welcomed at queer bar. The djs are always on point, the online reservations have always worked, the dance floor is always full and fun, and the staff is very kind. This venue has brought us some truly talented Seattle cabaret and drag performers, and it's a very special place to visit.
