Went there Halloween weekend, decent priced drinks but the vibe was off. Everyone was in a corner being shy and no one wanted to dance. A very over hyped place, the DJ played mostly songs to vibe to- not to dance to.(MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE VIBE OF PLACES BEFORE PAYING A $15-18 PARKING FEE ๐ญ๐)
This place definitely grew from when I used to go. The vibes are amazing and they have special guest DJโs. I love it here and itโs always a good time.
Its safe place for me .And Everyday they have different events I like itSaturday day they have steak ๐ฅฉis delicious
I went on Steak Night and it was perfect!! Parking is convenient, Drinks were perfect, nice vibe and the Steaks and Baked Potatoes cooked to perfection!! Nice spot to chill at ..definetly recommend this place to anyone looking for a non judgemental spot and a safe spot
Came to Houston for the weekend & my gf and i needed something to do . Pearl bar was nice, drinks were good music was good for the most part. Just wish theyd play a little more up to date music . But overall we had lots of fun, very diverse crowd !!!
Amazing lesbian bar. very inclusive and worth amazing steaks
The best, next time Im in town I will be here. The bartenders are very personable and were willing to make each each encounter friendly. I delt with 3 bartenders tonight, happy prinde, and they were bomb as hell. The people were cool too, I made a quick friend with a dude named ryan. 10/10 will be back
Pearl is my favorite place to go, the best bartenders, affordable drinks and they offer crab and crawfish sometimes! They also have art fairs every Sunday and I loved Magic Dyke night!
The safest most inclusive bar in houston. Please come by. Theres always something poppin here.
Such a disappointment... hopefully Pearl retuns to her former glory; focus, consistency and reciprocity is needed before that happens though, Julie!
So much respect for this bar.
Im not even from Houston and I didnt wanna leave after visiting here! Love the drinks, met new friends and turned tf up!
Very awesome place with a great environment. Good priced drinks for Washington st.Lesbian bar that is very friendly to the wider queer community and a valuable part of our local LGBTQ community.
Love this place ๐ love u Julie forever
The atmosphere at pearl is like no other and is really inclusive.
One of my favorite bars, even if I dont fit in. Everyone is super friendly. Great place to sit back and relax, dance. Often great music and cool DJs on the weekends. Feels more relaxed than other bars with there being a low population of straight dudes. From my perspective, drinks were good, but I only ever order Jack & Coke. Im always surprised by how little I spend on drinks here.My one issue is that I was confused about the bathrooms my first time around and didnt realize there was a second one off to the right until I saw someone walk in. Maybe better signage? Maybe Im blind? I dunno. Also, I had *no* idea there was an outdoor patio area until my... fourth visit?After reading some of these reviews I now want to go to Mutts and Mimosas. ๐ฎ
I highly recommend. As a new lesbian to Houston, there are great vibes here.
Thee lesbian bar in Houston. Jam packed dance floor on weekends. Huge patio is a great contrast to allow you space to converse, cool off, and chill. Check out their social media (FB) to discover special events like steak night, movie night, drag king shows. Good service. All styles of women and its ok if you want to bring a lezbro.
Pearl is the perfect place to go to if your looking for a great time and trying to have fun. Whether its a date or just going with friends. As a fellow gay, I love it here! I even love the games they have there, from mini basketball to a life size pool table in ground. I am a tomboy and love it!
Had a few White Claws, and tab was cheaper than expected.Being new to Houston and going to what seems to be the only/best Lesbian bar in town - it exceeded my expectations. The vibe is cozy and fun, music is good, and the place seems clean. Staff is also friendly. So yeah, id definitely go again.
Love. This. Bar. The bar tenders are very fast even when wall to wall people. I closed my tab once but left my card and I went a week later and they still had it and were not annoyed that I left it. They are very welcoming and care about you. Awareness to the guys, I havent been there when I didnt have a girl using the urinal next to me. Entertaining to watch, but not for the pee shy
Great place! Decent prices.. nice staff and customers and good staff. I would recommend to anyone seeking a laid back and friendly atmosphere. All are welcomed! Thanks Pearl!
Low lifes disgusting people
I always have fun here. Its obviously a LGBT bar and even though Im straight they are very welcoming of everyone. I lost my wallet here and they went out of their way to get it back to me. Steak and bingo night rocks and everyone there is fun and friendly.
Texas is so lucky to have a lesbian bar in Dallas and Houston! This Houston bar is fun, nice outdoor space. Tuesday steak night has massive portions. Lots of different events each day. Cant go wrong.
Kayla was always WONDERFUL. Keep Pearl alive, support your local businesses people!
Great Place to hang out. Sundays are Muts & Mimosas (yes, this bar is pet friendly, inside and out), Tuesdays are steak night with fabulous steaks (steaks come with a giant baked potato and salad), Wednesdays are drag kings shows, Fridays & Saturdays are party days! This place is great for everyone, whether you wants to chill and hang out, or dance and party ๐๐ท๐น๐ธ๐บ๐ป
Tuesday night steak and bingo nights are the best thing about this place! Besides the awesome people, bartenders and atmosphere. Great lgbtq place to just chill with some friends
They have themed nights along with games and on sundays you can adopt a kitten or puppy! How awesome is that?? You can actually talk to people in the bar without it being too loud and the bouncer is the coolest. Highly recommend people to come here
Very cute place everyone was very friendly
Drinks $3 more outside bar than inside bar for same exact drink. Coworkers (inside bartenders) acknowledge that thats an issue they have with the outside bartender that is not resolved. Past two random nights, ALL tables and chairs inside and outside are reserved... Yet rarely get sat. Not worth the $10 cover and $10 parking to park IN THEIR OWN LOT.
Still go to this place with my friends. Good music and Djโs depending on the day u go. The outdoor patio is real nice. Bar and staff are super friendly.
Getting my drink on tonight at the most awesome bar in all of HoustonPetal Bar HoustonDavid Salazar of The Salazar Law Firm !

Everyone at our table was enjoying everything. Service is consistently above par. This place has a good atmosphere.
I was there with a friend and my daughter .This is a very laid back chill bar.Every body at the bar was great .And it was Tuesday night steak night.This by far was the best steak that i have out side my own .And i have been to all the steaks houses in Houston.The owner cooks the steaks on the grill out side on charcoal.You can not get better then that .Great drinks.
I came here on a Wednesday to see the Houston Drag Kings and had an absolute blast! The show was comical and fun. The bar itself is very nice with an outdoor patio area. Definitely will be coming back!
Its literally the only bar I know of that is catered to the L in LGBTQ. What I love about this place is that it is a Lesbian bar BUT they welcome everyone. I see all walks of life come through those doors. They also have a nice big patio. Good, chill spot, music varies but usually they are on point.
WORST PLACE EVER!! DO NOT GO HERE!! THIS PLACE ONLY LIKES TO TAKE ADVANGE OF PEOPLE AND THERE MONEY!! SO MANY BETTER BARS IN THE AREA
I love going to Pearl Bar. Its one of the coolest bars Ive been to in Houston. The vibe is always good and drink specials/staff are the best!! The owner Julie is always around working and being a busy bee! Most def one one of my favorite bars on the Washington Ave strip.
The drag king show was amazing everyone was awesome. Other than the performances this bar is very welcoming and just about everyone is friendly never have i had a negative experience here.
Love this place. Great staff. Great crowd. Something for everyone. Price are amazing. I wont go anywhere else.
One of my favorite bars in Houston! So much fun to get up there and go dancing.
Love this place! Good music, drinks and events. The bartenders are friendly and you can tell the staff is all about peace, unity, love and respect. Thereโs a dance floor inside and patio outside with games for people looking to chill.
Itโs a typical lesbian bar thatโs overcrowded, loud, and serves subpar drinks. I went on a Saturday (party night), but Iโm not sure if Iโll go again. The drinks were priced cheaply, but the quality left much to be desired. I suggest ordering bottled drinks only. The bartender was a bit weird and condescending, asking questions like โare you enjoying your night,โ after waiting 15+ minutes to be tended to. The best experience was hanging outside in the rain and getting fresh air.
Absolutely love the atmosphere here! Everyone is so friendly and nice, and that king show? Omg. Every Wednesday is a party. Love this place.
Has good selection of music. Very nice people. Has one pool table. Bar didnt have cream for White Russian though.
People call it a dive bar, but Iโm not sure Iโd call Pearl one. There have been some major upgrades and additions to decor and entertainment lately which give a more modern and casual feel to the atmosphere. The outdoor patio has lots of games, another bar area, giant billiards section, and TV screens. Smokers have a pleasant space to enjoy themselves rather than being outsiders to the fun!
Tuesdays is BINGO & Steak night. Staff is just as awesome as can be! Fantastic specials, huge backyard/patio out in back with plenty of games to try out. Love this place.
$5 entrence fee after 10pm and another $10 for parking all to be waited by slow bartenders and weak drinks. Boring atmosphere!! 0/10 would not recommend.
Cool atmosphere. Inside is upbeat club with dance floor. Outside is more relaxed with games, tables, outside bar.
Good music....thatโs about it. Almost $18 for a vodka Red Bull, or should I say just Red Bull and โMalibuโ sprite. Literally just drinking juice. And then have the audacity to charge $10 to get in...for what?!?! To pay for weak drinks?? No thanks...Iโll pass next time!
Such a great and safe environment, I have never felt so inclusive and welcomed at any bar before in my life. Awesome drinks as well as hilarious karaoke, not to even mention to fun games to play outside
Love that this place has convenient across the street parking....a stones throw from a yummy food truck or ramen and another cool bar if you need a quick change of scenery. Dance floor is hit or miss since their music selection....always seem to be the only one dancing but their outside area is amazing!! There is giant connect four....basketball arcade style....great seating....and soccer pool!! That is where this place shines.
Love the music, and love the outdoor patio with beer pong, hula hoops and other games. It can get really crowded during the weekend, but its definitely a fun spot to hit up. The drinks are fairly priced on Washington than most other places as well.
Only lesbian bar in Houston. Best night is Saturday night. Usually great dj, Lots of dancing. They have an outdoor bar and patio. Great for groups.
Really nice lgbt bar. Great entertainment and loved the fact that they were dog friendly. You could actually be inside the bar with your dog. This was on a Wednesday night, not sure about other nights.
Good music, but honestly every drink I ordered was nothing but juice. For the prices not happy at all. One of the few guys here... disappointed.
The music was amazing the bartender knew how to make some great drinks. Great place for all actually and I really liked that...
Nice place. Friendly people. Decent prices . Awesome floor shows . Wow . Love patio area .
Awesome lesbian bar.l! They have different themes/event each night if the week.
I had a great time here with some friends I hadnt seen in years. The live DJ was awesome. Everyone was enjoying themselves.
Great place all around. Awesome crowd. We live this place!
Pearl got it wrong when they hired Omar at the entrance, ignorant and incompetent isnt half of it. Learn who your regulars are before you try to hassle people. Not another dime from me and mine. The bartenders are still great but he was a TERRIBLE choice. I expected better from yall, save your money ladies.
Definitely a great place to have fun! Dancing to awesome DJs, amazing steak nights, best prices on drinks, friendly staff!
Great vibes. DJ Tina provided great music. Good place to be on any day.
I had a great time on open mic Thursday! The staff was friendly and entertaining and the atmosphere was great!
This place is the bombdiggity I love it here! Everytime I go there I feel right at home. Definitely my spot for every Wednesday night โฅ
Manager is awesome. DJs are always great! Drinks are made correctly. Love it
Such an amazing experience everytime I come staff is so nice security is very nice very comfortable place even for straight couples. The prices omg hallelujah the prices arent sky high ! All in all AMAZING place!
Gay bar that when packed gets really tight because it is so small, but has outside activities that makes it fun.
Very lovely bar wish the gay bars were as outgoing as this lesbian bar they have games and events and its always playing good music..... Why do we gays not have something this fun!!!!
I normally love this place but last night was super annoying.There was a guy selling hookah stuff. I asked him if I could buy some, he said when he got to my table. When he got to our table, he ignored my request to buy shisha and went to speak to the only guy at our table.This would be bad enough elsewhere, but I really didnt expect it here. I complained to a bar tender inside, and she didnt seem at all interested. The bar tender outside was at least concerned when I spoke to her.
Service was friendly and very attentive the skill and training of the bartenders was below average for downtown. If the restaurant and bar want to increase beyond the captive hotel audience they will need to increase the level of skill and care in the drinks. Not pouring a full shot and a half and making 1 drink at a time with 12 people waiting is kindergarten. We had appetizers, oysters and halibut both fresh and flavorful but the weak drinks and the second attempt which was a small glass of wine poured into a small wine glass pissed me off to the point we left before ordering the entree....wont return.
Worst bar experience ever. The bar was very full, and the bartender walked past me several times. When he did take my drink order he was very snappy. I prefer to tip with cash over card So, once I receive my drinks for my friends and I and being the bar was so full. I walked away to give them their drinks. Before I could get back to the bar to give my tip, the bartender yelled out, โthis is why we donโt service yโall โ. I am of AA descent and I was offended. I found that very disrespectful and unprofessional. His coworker (lady with dreadlocks ) also joined in when I said something back. I will not be returning to this establishment.
Whats not to love about this lesbian bar!! Easy atmosphere, all kinds of women to watch and a great staff!!
The most chill as heck lesbian bar ever. Very popular so always a cool crowd but never a bad time!
If your looking for a chill place thats really rainbow friendly this is it. But Id advise you to go to the back cause they have a large patio thats bigger than the front. Plenty of chairs and tables, a few games and a bar there as well. Also smoking friendly . Music varies, usually not my style, but theres a juke box where you can pick songs on the patio.
Everyone was super nice and the bartender was very attentive.
Awesome atmosphere. Great staff, amazing owner and the best Damn bartenders ever .this place is a must if you have never been .
First time I ever sang Karaoke!Th
Friendly and clean place I took my mom there tonight she enjoyed herself
Love it great music and great drink specials and love all the different DJ that come out always have a blast
The spot to be on a friday, and a Saturday night. Its popping so get there early. Good music decent prices on beer and they have fresh djs. Great people good music what more can you ask for. ๐
So much fun dancing! Mixed crowd. Great outside space too.
A really energetic, but cozy spot for local LGBTQ+ and others to visit
The games were a welcomed amenity and the singer had a broad array of songs she performed.
Very competent, good conversation and clean car. Would totally recommend.
I had a great time both times I came and I didnt have to pay... I love the staff very cool and nice.....Im definitely coming back!!!!!!
This is the place to chill and meet people!!! Only let bar Houston! Super friendly owner and staff!
Great staff. Awesome layout. Patio games (cornhole etc.) out back. THE Lesbian Bar of Houston.
Best club Ive been to in a while I really like all the women that club attracts
