DC Queer Bars Ceramic Coasters | LGBTQ+ DC Nightlife Art | Gay Bar Memorabilia | Handmade Washington DC

🥂 A love letter to the bars that made us.

Every coaster in this collection is a small tribute to a DC space where queer people danced, flirted, fell apart, and found each other — the legends still standing and the ones we lost. Bold, graphic, and built to outlast the next lease that doesn't get renewed.

Pick the bar that holds your story. Don't see it? I'll make it. This is living nightlife history you can set a drink on.

🍸 Buy any 4+ coasters, get $4+ off — mix and match designs across the shop; the $1/coaster discount comes off automatically at checkout. No limit.

Frequently Asked Questions

My bar isn't in the list — can you make it?
Yes. Choose "Unlisted, Customized, Personalized" and type the bar name in the text box. If I can source a usable logo or design, I'll make it — small fee

Circle or square?
These are square only — it suits the bar-logo look.

Are these officially licensed by the bars?
No. They're independent fan tributes made by one queer person in DC, not official merch, aside from Spark Social and Kiki who have commissioned coasters from me. Bars including Kiki, Spark, Crush, and others, are aware of the products and are supporters, selling the coasters in their establishments and/or allowing me to sell in their establishments.

Can I order multiples of the same bar? A bunch of different bars?
Absolutely — add four or more and the buy-4+ save $4+ discount applies automatically. A crawl in coaster form.

What if it arrives damaged?
Message me and I'll make it right. See my Shipping Policy for details.
