Are There Lesbian Bars and Safe Spaces in Wilton Manors?

While Wilton Manors' bar scene historically skews toward gay men, there are welcoming spaces for queer women and a weekly ladies night.

Queer Women-Friendly Venues

• Progress Bar — Hosts Wednesday Ladies Night with DJ Citizen Jane, one of the area's strongest dedicated queer women events. The spiritual successor to the long-running New Moon lesbian bar
• Rosie's Bar & Grill (Wilton Drive) — Mixed LGBTQ+ crowd with a strong queer women following. Great food and a welcoming neighborhood vibe
• LIT Wilton Manors (Wilton Drive) — Indoor bar with outdoor patio, mixed gay/lesbian/queer crowd
• Georgie's Alibi Monkey Bar (Wilton Drive) — Welcoming mixed LGBTQ+ bar and restaurant open since 1997

Community Spaces

• The Pride Center at Equality Park — Broward County's LGBTQ+ community center hosts programming for all identities, including queer women's groups and meetups

The Scene

The bar scene is increasingly mixed and welcoming across the spectrum. Progress Bar's Wednesday ladies night is the strongest dedicated sapphic offering. Stonewall Pride in June and Wicked Manors in October draw large queer women crowds.
