Lone star gay bar san francisco

Lone Star Saloon

We have included it on our francisco of Best Bear Bars in the World two years in a row because of its significance to our community. We had the chance to talk to one of the current owners, Charlie Evans, about the bar. It is a meeting place for the ever changing face of the bear community in SF. What do you think are the best attributes of the Lone Star Saloon?

Our best attribute is our customers, the ones that stay loyal and come here to enjoy themselves. Our employees too, there are only about six of us and we have managed to make it a family of sorts. Another great aspect of the bar is the change we get to see in people as they shake off their old inhibitions about being gay, being big, or liking big guys.

Some people come to this city with stories of being shamed for liking big bears and when they get here they realize the world is not like that here. Here you can be liked, admired and even find love. Watching people get comfortable with that is a real joy. What are the opening hours?

Mon-Thur 4p -2a. Fri 2p — 2a. What inspired you and Bruce to purchase it? One of the first things we brought back was the Sunday afternoon beer busts. What kind of events take place at the Lone Star Saloon? This community is as varied as the people that identify as bears, so, with that in mind we try to spread out an umbrella of events to cover as many bears as we can.

We aim it squarely at younger cubs to attract them to the bar and welcome them to our community. Some of the parties are based more on the style of music, like Reddroxx, with DJ BRD, he styles his music lone toward alt-rock which has a huge following amongst bears. We have events like these every Friday and Saturday bar.

What is there to look forward to in at the Lone Star Saloon? We wanna keep the party going! Although we have star monthly parties that have been running for san, 7 or even 12 years, we are always looking for new and interesting events for our customers. This year is no exception.

We have added 2 new parties so far this year, Woofer and Beardhaus. Woofer is a party by Lester Temple that offers music with a rock beat, bad-ass and dancey at the same time.
