About Le Saxo

Le Saxo is one of Lausanne’s longest-running queer bars, tucked into a compact cellar-like space close to the city centre. It has an unpretentious, local feel and is particularly associated with karaoke on Friday and Saturday nights. The venue’s limited opening days and small capacity make it more of a focused late-week stop than an everyday bar. Arrive with a sociable mood, and check its current listings before travelling because special events can affect the timetable.

What to expect

A small, friendly local bar that is liveliest for weekend karaoke.

Old fashion/retro/dove/homie bar. Hard to find one word to describe this karaoke bar. But as soon as you step in, you feel home. Bartenders and crowd are friendly; service actually cares about you, and people are just genuinely having a good time. Jacques, you don't know me, but we all really miss you when we don't get a chance to come around!

A really great bar 😊 My dad used to go there and introduced me to it. I was instantly charmed. Whether you're alone or with others, the atmosphere is fantastic, and everyone there is kind and friendly. You can even form singing groups—it's really great!!! This place deserves to be more widely known. Thank you, Jacques, and thank you to everyone. I'm happy to share this place with my friends.
