Nostalgic queer bar on Paral·lel mixing tango energy with Latin and disco beats.
Lo de Carmen is a queer bar on the Avinguda del Paral·lel that explicitly centers drag, trans, and non-binary performers and crowds, sitting between Sant Antoni and Poble-sec just outside the main Eixample circuit. The room is done in neon red with plush seating, and the gender-neutral bathrooms are designed with the same care as everything else; a "the present is queer" sign over the bar reads more as positioning than decoration. Nights revolve around live drag shows and karaoke, with the seating area curtained off when a performance starts to shift the space from drinking bar to watching room. The atmosphere is warm and activist-aligned, with friendly staff and an even friendlier crowd. For travelers who want a trans- and drag-centered night that isn't built around go-go dancers or circuit music, it's one of the more intentional rooms in the city.

Cherry Grove is where gay America summered before there was a word for it. Here's the complete guide to Fire Island's original queer hamlet — its history, its drag-soaked nightlife, where to stay and eat, the beach, and how it differs from the Pines next door.
