Between sapphic nights and Seattle Pride, it’s clear to say that Seattle’s pretty queer.
As a female in the LGBTQ crowd, I must say that I’ve never personally visited any of the gay fetish nights, but I’ve sure heard about them!
Seattle has such a wide range of queer and gay bars — it truly was tough to pick our favorite seven.
Here are seven of the best gay/queer bars in Seattle.

Changes has been around for even longer than C.C. Attle’s. Since 1989, Changes has been a friendly hub for the LGBTQ+ crowd, hosting happy hour specials, games, a video dj, karaoke, and more. We love that they have an outdoor patio and free wifi.

Pony is a tribute to the great West Village and Castro bars of the 1970s. The bar occupies a 1930s-vintage gas station building that has been transformed into a beloved hangout. You’ll probably hear punk rock, disco, new wave, and indie rock spinning, depending on the day.
