Baltimore, Maryland
Queer neighborhood bar in Northeast Baltimore with karaoke and drag
Mixers is a gay- and trans-owned bar on the Belair Road corridor in Northeast Baltimore, well outside the Mount Vernon gayborhood and proud of it — the owners bill it as a "Queer Cheers," and there's no cover, ever. It's been a gay bar since 2008 (it ran as Thursday's before that), long enough to become a genuine neighborhood institution rather than a night-out destination. The week is built around its regulars: karaoke on Thursdays, Eagle in Exile Sundays for the leather and kink crowd, and a monthly drag show hosted by Victoria Blair that's billed as the longest-running in the city. The room pulls a mix you don't always get downtown — drag fans, leather folks, bears, and working-class Belair Road regulars in the same space. For a traveler willing to leave the central scene, it's about the most unpretentious queer bar in Baltimore.
