The Backdraft (Baldwin) and Gormans on 51 have done drag queen bingo nights. I’d think they would be open or friendly to you but guess it would depend on the clientele of the day/night.

I think I’ve seen -just from appearances a few gay couples at the backdraft. Not drawing a stereotype, they were obviously a couple.

I know i go to backdraft all the time either with my husband or my best friend who is also gay. Backdraft is usually great to meet someone and I never get any funny looks or responses from people. Super chill spot with tables/booths and bar seating and the staff are super friendly.
