Drag queens’ guide to unique US pride destinations

Dallas, Texas' very own Liquor Mini

It seems no matter where you go, drag queens always have the tea or in layman’s terms, the gossip. 

Drag queens are the pride and joy of the LGBTQI+ community and they rule the night with larger-than-life glamour, hijinks and outrageous comedy. 

From Baltimore, Maryland to Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, these drag queens beam with pride as they share their insider’s guide to unique pride destinations in the US for 2022.

Liquor Mini’s guide to Dallas, Texas

Drag name: Liquor Mini (she/her/Sis)

Location: I am originally from a small town Galesburg, Illinois and I am currently based in Dallas, Texas

The Dallas LGBTQI+ scene: The Dallas gay scene is progressive with a touch of country. We have a gayborhood with a variety of gay bars that are pretty hopping on the weekends. You can find anything from country line dancing at the Round Up Saloon to hot gay bars such as Mr. Misster. The patio at JR’s is great for happy hour.

Favorite local gay bars: My favorite local gay bars are Mr. Misster and Round Up Saloon Both are local favorites. The best nights to go out are Friday nights and early Sunday evening at Mr. Misster. The music is always hot. Dallas is a great city to be seen out at the bars.

Favorite local restaurants: I love Street’s Fine Chicken on Cedar Springs Rd. I am obsessed with their Chickarones and I always order chicken tenders and brie mac and cheese. I also love Uncle Julio’s steak fajitas. They are also known for their swirl margaritas.

Perfect summer night out: Meeting up with friends for dinner at one of my favorite restaurants then catching the legendary drag show at the Rose Room @ S4 night club then dancing the night away at the Round Up Saloon.

Catch Liquor Mini perform: You can catch Liquor Mini hosting “Fly Queens Drag Brunch” the first Sunday of the month at Meza Mezcal in Irving. I am the Readers Voice Award Best Karaoke Host in Dallas. You can also catch me as the VACAYA Resort Director. I am also the Dallas Gay Pride Grand Marshal this year.
