Set in a casual, laid-back space, Sparky's Pub is a gay-friendly hangout that welcomes people from all walks of life. Mingle with new, interesting people as you enjoy one of their specialty cocktails out on the patio, tap your feet to the music played by video Djs, make new friends while playing a game of pool or simply lay back and relax with a glass of wine. The bar also serves a limited yet great selection of snacks and tapas. Sandwiches, ice cold salads and homestyle soups are just some of the food offerings. Whether you come here alone or bring some pals in tow, Sparky's Pub ensures you have a great time.
The 2015 is a friendly neighborhood bar in the Monte Vista district that sports an almost exclusively lesbian/gay clientele. It has pool tables, a small dance floor and multiple nightly drink specials. The 2015 is a great place to start the evening before heading off to a restaurant or club, as well as a place to go have a drink without having to deal with the lounge or pick-up scene.
If you don't love sinful desserts, delicious coffee and fine wines, then perhaps you should choose another place. Otherwise, enjoy them all while curled up on a big comfy couch, poised at an antique table, or relaxing on a shaded patio. This coffeehouse and wine bar is one of the best kept secrets in the city. As is common in this part of town, Candlelight draws a mixed crowd. For a conservative city, this establishment is decidedly gay friendly.
Set in a lively space, SA Country Saloon is quite popular with the gay population of San Antonio. Karaoke nights, pool tables, and live music events keep the atmosphere buzzing. The bar also organizes events like country dancing, comedy gigs, and drag shows and offers reasonably priced drinks.
