The music video bar upstairs is also a must-see and enjoy two-for-one drinks from 7-8 p.m.
Larry’s Lounge is a gay neighborhood pub, with always-affordable drinks, solid happy hour specials, mouth-watering pub fare (see: sweet potato tots) and one of the city’s friendliest patios (you can bring your dog, too!). A sports-themed menu of bar favorites includes stadium dogs, chicken tenders and burgers.
The community space and lively hot spot off U Street brings the energy, whether you prefer shaken, stirred or sassy.
With the migration of gay bars moving from Adams Morgan to Shaw and U Street, the ladies have been lost in the shuffle. The front bar is the best place to strike up a conversation, and the crowd?
Outside, we have an expanded patio area that now includes a large streatery and cocktail servers.
We are proud to say that we were just named 2022 BEST GAY BAR IN DC in the annual "Best of DC" contest in the Washington Blade newspaper.

DC Gay Nightlife: Best Bars, Clubs & Events (2025)
Trade – Best Queer Hangout with Strong Pours.
This two-level bar serves up neighborhood vibes downstairs and wild party nights upstairs.
The diversity of DC’s LGBTQ+ community is growing by the day, resulting in a dynamic, exciting community with plenty of bars and clubs to choose from when it’s time to drink, dance and play. Head upstairs for black lights and DJs, and those strong drinks should have you dancing all night.
Located in Logan Circle, the Little Gay Pub proves that size doesn’t matter.
It’s not for the faint of heart: lights go off, clothes check is free, and anything can happen. Our happy hours are quite popular and nighttime gets even busier with djs playing music videos on the second floor. The Pitchers family knows we need to extend the love, and give the gals a space to the enjoy just like the boys have had for years.
