Known as the longest-running gay bar in Nevada, 5 Star Saloon is a popular hotspot amongst Reno's LGBT+ community and attracts diverse crowds. This bar has been voted the number one best place to meet gay singles and the best gay hangout in all of northern Nevada.

Carl's The Saloon is a low-key Reno gay bar that has been open since the 1960s and is known for attracting the city's leather-loving crowd. This smoke-free saloon offers affordable drinks, a welcoming atmosphere, and friendly staff. However, there is a patio at this venue if you would like to step outside to smoke. Throughout the week, Carl's plays host to event nights, such as Free Pool Tuesdays and Underwear Night Fridays. Look out for regular drinks deals, including Martini Night and Fruity Friday. There is a happy hour between 12 and 8 pm every day.
