Here’s who’s open and closed tonight in the DC Gay Bar Scene

By Metro Weekly Contributor on December 19, 2009

As evening nears, Hearsay has taken a few moments to find out which gay bars and clubs are open and which ones are closed on this snowy Saturday in D.C. So if you’re not landlocked (like Hearsay, without so much as a scrap of nourishment, praise the lord for gin, vermouth and cocktail olives) and you want camaraderie and booze tonight, you have plenty of neighborhood options from which to choose.

Here’s who’s open:

18th & U Duplex Diner

30 Degrees/Cobalt (but the Bare anniversary has been postponed)

Annie’s (24 hours!)

DIK Bar

EFN Lounge

Fireplace

Freddie’s Beach Bar & Grill

Green Lantern

Halo

JR.’s Bar & Grill

Mixtape at DC9

Nellie’s Sports Bar

Playbill Cafe

PW.’s Sports Bar (but they will likely close early)

Here’s who’s closed tonight:

Apex DC

Dito’s at Floriana

Omega DC

Town Danceboutique

Ziegfeld’s/Secrets (there goes the prospect of nude snow angels)

The following establishment did not answer their phones as of 5:45 p.m. (and Hearsay let them ring a good long time, too), nor have reported one way or another on Facebook whether or not they’re open. It’s possible they’re opening later, but Hearsay strongly suggests calling the following before you make the trek.

Bachelor’s Mill

Club Hippo in Baltimore

D.C. Eagle

Fab Lounge

Lace

Phase One

Remington’s
