Street Bar, Palm Springs

Located in the heart of the vibrant Arenas District, Street Bar is more than just a local watering hole-it’s a beloved Palm Springs institution and a cornerstone of the city’s LGBTQ+ scene. Since opening its doors in 1991 as the first gay bar in Palm Springs, Street Bar has been a safe, inclusive, and festive space where good drinks, warm company, and unforgettable nights come together.

With its prime spot on Arenas Road, Street Bar is the perfect pre- or post-dinner stop, surrounded by restaurants and buzzing nightlife. Whether you're basking on the outdoor patio (a prime people-watching zone), belting out karaoke classics, or simply enjoying a well-crafted cocktail, Street Bar’s got you covered. The vibe is always lively, thanks to the valley’s friendliest bartenders, daily top-shelf specials, extended happy hour, and an open-door policy that invites everyone to feel right at home.

More than just a nightlife venue, Street Bar is a symbol of community resilience and pride. Named Grand Marshal of the 2021 Palm Springs Pride Parade, it continues to stand as a welcoming space where people gather, perform, connect, and celebrate. It’s a place where anyone can be a star-or just enjoy the show from a front-row seat.

With both front and back entrances and easy parking, Street Bar is as convenient as it is iconic. Come for the drinks, stay for the camaraderie, and leave feeling part of something bigger. After all, Street Bar isn’t just a bar-it’s a Palm Springs tradition.
