Silverado

Silverado has been part of Portland’s gay scene for almost 35 years, first as Flossie’s beneath one of the city’s old bathhouses before becoming a dedicated gay men’s nightclub. Since 2018, it has operated from a modern space near the Pearl District and Old Town, with two bars under one roof.

Downstairs runs as the nightclub, with male dancers, private dances, a modern sound system, and an intimate underground setting. Upstairs is quieter, with pool, six video poker machines, live Keno, and a full bar and kitchen. At what other club can you get a steak cooked to your liking?

On the calendar, there's Karaoke Mondays, Amateur Nights, leather and kink events, and Slay Sundays. Most of these events are hosted by the fab resident drag queen Sheniqua Volt, with tunes by DJ Snow.
