Dallas Gay & Lesbian Bars
If anyone ever had any doubts about the acceptance of alternative lifestyles in Texas, they need only reference the great gay scene in Dallas. In fact, with a bar that has a swimming pool, a multi-level bar and restaurant that has killer theme nights and a massive venue that’s six bars rolled into one, it seems that being gay in Dallas might actually be more fun than being straight! In the super gay-friendly neighborhood of Oak Lawn, two bars even cover the low-key end of the scene, offering pool tables, karaoke and fresh brewed beer to folks seeking solace at the end of a long day at work. Gay bars in Dallas aren’t limited to just the male end of the spectrum, either; one of the coolest hangouts is a lesbian bar where drink specials like one-dollar tequila shots during happy hour keep the party rolling long into the night. From the dance clubs to the martini bars, gay and lesbian bars in Dallas are as fun as they get, and are always welcoming to everyone, regardless of orientation.

Buddies II
4025 Maple Ave., Dallas, TX; Tel. [phone]
Dallas lesbians have found the best bar to hang out, dance and meet new people at in Buddies II. Drinks specials like one-dollar tequila shots are offered during the daily happy hour along with tons of other drink options. Buddies II is also boy friendly with a "Boys Night Out" on Thursday instead of a ladies night out. The Dallas bar in Oak Lawn also has a swimming pool during warm months, karaoke and volleyball. Saturday nights are for country music dancing but every night there is something special going on. If all else fails, Buddies II has friendly bartenders who know how to make a great martini.

Illusions
4100 Maple Ave., Dallas, TX; Tel. [phone]
Everyone is welcome at Illusions to partake in a fun and friendly night of pool, darts or just having a few drinks with old and new friends. Throughout the week there are various female impersonators who put on some of the best shows in Dallas and are some of the prettiest drag queens in the South. Daily drink specials can quench thirst for reasonable prices during happy hour. The Dallas gay bar allows all kinds of people to hang out in an accepting atmosphere where they can just be themselves.
JR's Bar & Grill
3923 Cedar Springs Rd., Dallas, TX; Tel. [phone]
Old meets new—décor that is—in JR's Bar and Grill where Dallas gays and lesbians congregate to chow on pub grub and dance like there's no tomorrow. Each night has its own unique theme like Monday's "Queer Factor"—an eating contest—or the Tuesday and Thursday drag show. Pool tables and wireless internet are available for those who aren't feeling the bar vibe, but there's a lot to be felt. The multi-level Dallas bar and restaurant has plenty of places to hang out and people watch with a cocktail in hand. Regardless of orientation, the bar is a friendly place to make your neighborhood bar.

Round-Up Saloon
3912 Cedar Springs Rd., Dallas, TX; Tel. [phone]
Six different themed bar areas have been rounded up to make up the gay and lesbian friendly Round-Up Saloon. Victorian décor makes the daytime Parlor Bar a comfortable place to sip one of the 25 martinis on the menu or stick around into the night when the Parlor becomes a karaoke bar Sunday through Thursday nights. Real Dallas cowboys saunter to the Tool Shed Bar that features two full bar stations and authentic Western tool shed decorations. The bar connects to the covered Chute 5 Patio Bar with several pool tables and video screens plus free peanuts! Chute 5 is a nice break from the other higher energy bars like the Lonestar Bar in the main dance hall, The Horseshoe Bar—shaped like a horseshoe—and the Tequila Shack with over 40 premium tequilas. The hottest gay cowboys in Dallas converge at the Round-Up Saloon, so hop into those leather chaps and giddy up.

Side 2
2651 Oak Lawn Ave., Ste. 101, Dallas, TX; Tel. [phone]
On a weekday afternoon the atmosphere is low-key and laid back at Side 2. Dallas locals might swing by for an after work drink at the bar in the brewery or to meet a friend. When the weekends roll around the bar takes on a whole new personality as a karaoke bar with a dance floor and great music. The Oak Lawn neighborhood is gay and lesbian friendly, so Side 2 fits right in with its welcoming atmosphere of the gay and lesbian community. It doesn't matter who comes in at Side 2, everyone is welcome in the relaxed Dallas bar.
