Unlike a lot of bars in the Castro, this two-story haunt offers plenty of space for busting a move. DJs here spin a nice mix of hip-hop and dance tunes, and a pair of pool tables are nearly always in use. Just a few blocks east of Polk Street, the tiny bar has been known to host weekly parties that rake in a dizzyingly eclectic mix of old-school queers, hipsters, drag aficionados, and the occasional curious tourist.
Aunt Charlie's Lounge: In the gritty, unvarnished meatiness that is the San Francisco Tenderloin District, this beloved drag bar is an SFO institution of considerable acclaim.
