Pearl Bar

Welcome to Queertopia. Pearl Bar Houston is the world’s largest lesbian bar, and its 1.25-acre Washington Avenue venue is certainly big enough to live up to the billing. Founded by Julie Mabry in 2013, Pearl has grown into a sprawling LGBTQ+ destination with huge outdoor spaces, a multipurpose event area, games, TVs, DJs and live music.

Weekly programming includes Queen Karaoke and club nights. The full kitchen and food truck options keep the party fuelled. The outdoor area is particularly impressive, and things really start picking up around midnight.
