20 Great LGBTQ Bars In NYC

We're absolutely bursting with pride 🌈 that The Infatuation selected Upstairs Cocktail Bar as one of the 20 Great LGBTQ Bars in New York City!

Being included alongside some of the city's legendary LGBTQ+ establishments is an incredible honor, especially for our brand-new queer-friendly 🏳️‍🌈 bar.

New York City doesn’t just have one “gay neighborhood.” Sure, there’s Hell’s Kitchen and Chelsea—but this city is all just kind of gay everywhere. No matter where in the city you find yourself, you’re never too far from people in full mesh, studs in suits, drag queens and kings, club kids, and leather daddies. Here are 20 of our favorite LGBTQ spots across NYC.
