26 is Buffalo’s queer bar in the heart of Allentown. Our space has been queer owned and occupied for over 30 years, and we’re proud to carry that history forward while creating something fresh for today’s community.

We’ve become more than a bar — we’re a spot where drag, DJs, community events, and chosen family all come together. Nightlife here is meant to feel inclusive, joyful, and unapologetically queer. Whether you’re stopping in for a night out, joining a community gathering, or just looking for a place to feel at home, you’ll find it at 26.

Later this year, we’re growing next door with a new event space, giving us even more room to celebrate the people, performances, and moments that bring us together.
