This week’s gay af 💅 spot will be held at Barton Springs Saloon! Housed in a former gas station, this Austin favorite has been transformed into a laid-back neighborhood dive bar known for its casual vibe, daily happy hour specials, and spacious outdoor patio. This venue offers a central, low-key spot for locals and visitors to enjoy an assortment of drinks, food, pool, and more right near Zilker Park! Whether you’re looking for a chill night out with your friendly gays or a wild gay night to de-stress from work- this fun and laidback location offers a lively setting to kick back and have a gay ol’ time.

Stop by for another night of drinks, laughs, and unhinged(or chill, your choice) sapphic + queer energy! Make new friends, catch up with old ones, and help us maintain our thriving sapphic community here in Austin. As always, we are always open to new ideas for new spots so please let us know.
