What makes Aunt Charlie’s Lounge special

Aunt Charlie’s is small, worn and warm. The drinks are among the cheapest in the city, and at weekends the Hot Boxxx Girls take the small stage. The bar is fundraising to survive as the last queer bar in the Tenderloin. The area is rough at night.

Shows

The Hot Boxxx Girls perform on Fridays and Saturdays at 10 pm, $5 entry. There are also monthly parties such as Angels and Tubesteak Connection.
