Past Lesbian & Sapphic Hangouts in Austin
Past spots around Austin we turned sapphic for just that night. The receipts: our past hangouts we’ve thrown for queer women in Austin, where we took over, and how it went. Missed one? Catch up below, then go find where we’re landing next.
Lesbian Night at Marlow - East Austin
Craft cocktails, cozy couches, and a creekside patio - our July 16th sapphic takeover of Marlow was one for the books. Photo gallery inside!
Sapphic Social at the Flower Shop — East Austin
The Flower Shop made for a perfect sapphic night — drinks, heavy yapping, and a lesbian crowd that turns strangers into regulars.
WLW Night at Barton Springs Saloon - South Austin
Barton Springs Saloon got a WLW remodel for the night — a lively South Austin dive, some heavy-handed pours, and a sapphic crowd building community.
Cocktails, Pool, and Queer Women at the Aristocrat Lounge, Austin
Golden hour, good company, and The Aristocrat's back patio — our queer crowd found plenty to love at this laid-back Burnet Road favorite.
Where We’ve Been
Every week we take over a different Austin venue and turn it sapphic for the night. Here's where we've been so far - each one has a full write-up.
East Austin & East 6th
The bars, patios, and coffee shops that have hosted us on the east side: Marlow, The Flower Shop, Cosmic Saltillo, and Revenge Bar.
North Austin
From North Loop up to Burnet Road and Windsor Park: Barfly's, The Grand, The Aristocrat Lounge — which we loved enough to visit twice — and Busty's.
Downtown & West 6th
Parlor & Yard on West 6th, plus Coppertank Pool Hall, Bar Moxy, and Punch Bowl Social downtown.
South Austin
Our most-visited stretch of town. Warehouse Billiard Bar three times over (second, third), Barton Springs Saloon twice, plus Slick Willie's and Pins Mechanical Co.
