El 27, C Trastamara 27. 2100-0300 (weekends 0700). A discreet, backstreet bar attracting mostly gay males. Relaxing atmosphere and music.

A large bar with three levels, a cuarto oscuro (darkroom), videos and cubicles. Its virtually wholly gay male; as the name would suggest, there are plenty of bears, but thats by no means the whole story.
El Mundo, C Siete Revueltas 5, T 954 215 335. 2300-0300. This bar varies in atmosphere according to whats on. Apart from Tuesday night flamenco, theres usually a fair gay and lesbian element, and its always an interesting spot for a drink.

Theres plenty of dancing and music and live shows at weekends. Due to their prime location and cheerful atmosphere they attract a mixed crowd.
El Varón Rampante, C Arias Montano 3, T 656 906 663. 1900- 0200. Just off the Alameda de Hércules, this bar (appropriately named the rampant male) and the adjacent one, El Bosque Animado, attract plenty of people who mingle outside on weekend evenings. The crowd is mixed at peak times, but is usually fairly solidly gay male.
Hércules Mítico, Alameda de Hércules 93. 1600-0400. A popular bar on this long square with a tall and elegant trannie as host. Modern interior and largely gay male crowd; music is mostly recent Spanish pop hits, but there are some DJ nights with varying types of dance music.

Men to Men, C Trajano 38. 2230-0500. A gay club near the Alameda. Large, dark and popular with a dark room and decent dance music.

Noveccento, C Julio César 10. Winter 1700-0200, summer 2000-0400. A bar and café that attracts a mixed crowd with a significant lesbian element. Frequent shows that cater to both guys and gals.
Why Not, C Federico Sánchez s/n, T 954 222 636. Thu-Sat 2300-0500. Relaxed discoteca with a mixed, but mostly gay male, crowd. There are three rooms, the first quiet and decorated with Hollywood icons and a bonsai tree. The two dance floors are fairly crowded and have good sound systems walloping out unchallenging popular hits that are enthusiastically received. Entry is $ 10 including drink; theres another branch at Calle Bedoya 20 and an outdoor one in summer behind the Plaza de Armas bus station.
