Travel Reference
In-Depth Information
The Stud (399 9th St., at Harrison; % 415/863-6623; www.studsf.com) may
be the quintessential San Francisco gay bar, complete with a friendly crowd, good
bartenders, and go-go boys whose underwear just happens to slip off when they're
oil wrestling in the kiddie pool. Tuesday night at midnight is the outrageous
Trannyshack drag show ($8).
OTHER AREAS
The Cinch (1723 Polk St., at Clay; % 415/776-4162; www.thecinch.com) in seedy
Polk Gulch pleases out-of-towners and straight folk alike. Many think it's the best
gay bar in America in terms of festive fun. Perhaps it's the free Ms. Pac-Man
machine. There's a vibrant, neighborhood feel, a diverse crowd, a strong pour,
parties during every holiday, and both pool tournaments and over-the-top drag
shows (Fri are for an award-winning one called Anna Conda ).
Lexington Club (3464 19th St., at Valencia; % 415/863-2052; www.lexington
club.com; closed Sun) is a friendly lesbian bar in the Mission. The energy is homey,
and there's not just pool but also frequent strip action.
