About Lou's Harvard Square

Lou's is a restaurant, cocktail lounge and music venue on Brattle Street in Harvard Square, Cambridge, with jazz, DJs and bands in its lounge and performance space most nights. One Sunday a month it hosts Lou's Drag Brunch, a themed 21+ drag show with doors at 11 a.m. Tickets are required to reserve a spot, so book ahead through the brunch listing on Lou's site. It's a Gay Friendly restaurant rather than a gay bar, and the monthly drag brunch is the reason to go.
