Bar in Lakeview
  • LGBTQ
  • Bar

The name of this neighborhood bar speaks volumes to the size of this cash only, decades-old drinking spot on the edge of Boystown. Lesbian-owned and operated beginning in the late 70s. The Closet began as a space for women to proudly drink, and although the bar is now frequented by gay men and straight fans, it is luckily still dominated by women. Karaoke nights, game nights and Arrive early on weekend nights or you'll be waiting in line.
