Pearl Bar Houston

Pearl Bar on Washington Ave is one of the only two lesbian bars in Texas and one of just 36 remaining dedicated lesbian bars in the entire United States — making it a vital and irreplaceable institution in Houston’s LGBTQ+ community. Celebrating women, femmes, and queer people of all genders, Pearl Bar hosts drag king shows, bingo nights, and community events that center historically underserved voices within the queer community. Its presence has made it a beloved gathering place for Houston’s lesbian and queer women’s scene.
