Queer Bar (stylized as Queer/Bar) is a bar catering to the queer community in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood, in the United States. Queer Bar hosts drag shows regularly.[1]

History

The business was established in 2017, replacing Purr Cocktail Lounge, another gay bar which relocated.[2][3][4]

The bar began serving Sunset Fried Chicken's sandwiches in late 2018.[5]

Robbie Turner has served as the venue's entertainment director.[6] Bosco and Irene Dubois, contestants on season 14 and season 15 of RuPaul's Drag Race, respectively, have performed at the bar.
