What makes Stacy’s at Melrose special

Gothic decor, high ceilings and local art give the bar its own look; outside, a rainbow wings mural is a popular photo spot. The programme is packed: drag competitions like ‘Stacy’s Rising Star’, viewing parties and a drag brunch on Sundays. In 2026 PHOENIX magazine readers voted Stacy’s the best gay/lesbian bar.

Shows

In October 2026, for example, there was the ‘King of Drag’ viewing party and the newcomer competition ‘Stacy’s Rising Star 12’. The weekly programme is on the website.
