Dallas: Top 10 LGBT‑Friendly Destination for Summer Travel

Where to Stay

Dallas remains a premier destination for LGBT travelers, ranking in the top 10 for summer travel according to SCRUFF’s latest analysis. Choose a hotel that offers both comfort and an inclusive atmosphere. Boutique options include Hotel Zaza, The Joule, and The Highland Dallas. For a larger‑scale experience, Hilton Anatole features the new Jade Waters resort‑style pool and water park, complete with an adults‑only swim‑up bar.

What to Eat

Dallas is celebrated for its culinary scene, with districts such as Knox‑Henderson, Lower Greenville, Trinity Groves, and the Bishop Arts District leading the way. For a night of fine dining, visit the LGBT‑owned Salum or Flora Street Café, both offering sophisticated ambience and exquisite menus. If you prefer contemporary flavors, Komali offers Mexican cuisine while Stampede 66 delivers classic Texas fare. Start your day with hearty breakfast options at Zephyr Bakery Café, known for its coffee, pastries, and sandwiches.

How to Play

The city’s vibrant gayborhood lies at the intersection of Cedar Springs Road and Oak Lawn Avenue. This compact strip is a hub for shopping, bars, nightlife, and entertainment. Refresh your wardrobe at Skivvies, Outlines, or Out of the Closet Thrift Store. Nightlife options cater to every taste: Round‑Up Saloon offers a true country vibe, while Station 4 and The Rose Room host energetic drag shows. For a relaxed atmosphere with pool tables and outdoor space, try JR’s Bar & Grill, Sue Ellen’s, Alexandre’s, or Woody’s. TMC remains the premier spot to watch dancers inspire your own moves. Beyond Oak Lawn, enjoy the KXT Sun Sets concert series at the Dallas Arboretum on White Rock Lake.
