I came here on a Monday, at the begging I wasn’t convinced that much. But Im glad I did it. Looooved it!!! Perfect for solo travelers. The show it’s fun and variated. You get roasted in a good way. 😂Very easy to make friends and keep the party on. I tried different bars around the area and so far This was the better.

BEST experience in Madrid! 9€ entrance + 1 cocktail or 2 beers. Queens super!

Great bar, fantastic drag acts. They swap out regularly during the night so you’ll never get bored. Entry includes a drink and is very generous with the offerings. Bar is a little small, wish it were bigger but overall a fun night out.

This place was an absolute highlight of my visit to Madrid. As a solo traveller who can't really speak Spanish, you have so many worries about going to a bar on your own, but both the HILARIOUS drag Queens and the bartender went out of their way to ensure I had a great time. In particular, Gala von Rich went out of her way to make me feel included and we had such a laugh. It's typically €9 entry, but that includes a token to either 2 beers or one spirit drink (and with the Spanish measures, you get your money's worth!!). 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a camp night! Whether you understand the language or not, you will have a lot of fun!

Cute little gay bar in Chueca. We were travelling in Madrid from the UK and went along to see a drag queen night. The queens were fabulous and amazing entertainment and two of us don’t speak Spanish!!! Haha

Loved this bar!! Even in the week days there are great drag show. This is a small bar, in which you can get a drink with the entrance you pay. The drag show was great, especially if you understand Spanish, but even if not, it's a lot of fun. Would for sure come back!!

Charged €9 Entry. To get through a door to what felt like 300 trapped in a small box room. Couldn’t get to the bar at all, as everyone was sat or stood along it. By time we got a drink finally we where then told by a member of staff to move - we couldn’t even turn around it was that packed. We finally made it to the toilet entrance which was the quietest part other end of bar. Which meant to leave we had to then try and get past everyone. Surely it’s a health and safety risk having that many people in such a small enclosed space. Probably a ok bar if your a local, but if a tourist is avoid it wasn’t made to feel welcome and just squashed in to make more money.

We had a great time there. Went 3 nights (Monday - Wednesday) in a row. Non stop drag shows until around 3. Drag shows are in Spanish, mostly featuring Spanish songs. Some of the artists were singing live during their performances.

Went there after a sudden encounter with this barSeemed to be small and very friendlyThe drag show was funny for the most part, so good choice on the shows presentedI feel like the drinks could be higher quality, but it's still a nice place to go to

Amazing atmosphere and energetic performance! Wonderful and talented ladies scaled up the show to the max. There is no wonder people are queuing to see it.

Had a time of my life here!Came on a Sunday, the show was hosted by three beautiful drag queens. They sang and talked to the audience almost non-stop for about 4 hours up until the bar's closing time. The songs were well known, both Latin and western, some were performed live and some with lipsync. Can't say for everyone, but even as a non-Spanish speaker I enjoyed all of them. Also the queens frequently interacted with the audience, from what I learned there were plenty of other foreigners.The place got crowded at around 12 am, but there still was enough space for everyone, even for dancing. The staff was very friendly. The drinks are a bit expensive, but it's understandable as you pay for the show as well.I already miss this place and I wish to come back here soon!

The show is low average. But the staff as mentioned in other reviews is insultingly arrogant. They literally treat you like animals. it is really a shame.

Probably the most disappointing thing in my trip. The bar itself is super tiny with awkward lighting. The line was long. As we were waiting in line, we started reading through the reviews and noticed one of the reviewers said staff were racist towards them. Unfortunately, we didn’t heed the warnings and marched forward anyways because of the allure of free cover with a purchase or a drink that is much over priced. Within 30 seconds of being in the bar which made me feel as though we were sardines packed in a can, I was singled out by a drag queen who didn’t even bother lip syncing through 90% of the song. From the stage, she mumbled random who-know-what words that I could only interpret as Chinese towards me because I am Asian. I signaled for her to stop so she decided to switch to Japanese or some other Asian language. Feeling rather annoyed, I complained to a staff who basically suggested I get over it and that drag queen was just joking. Sure I will but I will certainly not go back and will not recommend this bar to anyone. There are many other gay bars in Madrid with excellent performers and shows but regardless of my experience, this certainly isn’t one of them....so save your money, time and go somewhere else.

Great entertainment and bar staff. Despite the crowds during shows, they manage to keep the drink orders moving no matter where you are in the bar. I'll definitely be going back again during my trip.

I just made one step from the entrance door and immediately a staff member asked me to go and purchase a drink. Wait a minute! Let me make myself comfortable and see how the place is and then I will get a drink. It was really rude and really putted me off staying in this place. The crowd wasn't that vibrant and what I managed to see of the drag show was ... awful. I stayed no longer than 2 min in the bar and the same staff member watched me like he is gonna kill me if I don't buy a drink. I had to pretend that I have a phone call to get out of this horrible place. Please do not go there. I am not sure is it just me but I can see other similar comments. What a horrible attitude in 21st century. I will never go there again. Will share my experience to all friends who I know and I hope no one of them go there.

This is a little hole in the wall type of place located in the "gayborhood" of Madrid. It's a little dance place but basically a comedy drag lip sync place...
