"Walk up the narrow concrete stairwell to reach Pride Cafe, a queer-owned spot that was opened in 2021 by Võ Minh Quân, Derek Dodd, and Dustin Leonard. The place is outfitted with pink neon signs, soft light bulbs that spell out “Pride,” and a pink swing set. Go for one of the specialty coffee drinks like the Tiara & Fabulous (espresso, tiramisu sauce, cocoa, coffee ice cream, and a ladyfinger), or opt for something boozy like the Green & Gold (Irish whiskey, ginger, stout). Community events at the cafe include monthly board game nights and book and chess clubs." - Linh Phan
