CRUSH

Looks like this continues to happen to several people as well. I guess if the bartenders don’t think your young enough or hot they rip you off! Bartender charged us $12 for a happy hour drink. I went to the bathroom and saw the happy hour sign. Come on sorry I’m not 25 but don’t rip me off. We paid cash and the bartender didn’t offer me a free round. He instead said he would charge me $4 for the next round.

One of my fave spots in Oak Lawn — the energy is always 10/10. The owners and bartenders are amazing, super welcoming, and the drinks are not only delicious but also come with the cutest decorations. The drag queens always turn it out, and the sound system eats. And let’s be real — the bathroom mirrors are the most iconic in the gayborhood. Colorful, fun, and full of good energy — Crush never misses. 💖🌈

I had an amazing first experience at this club — so much so that I came back a second time and brought 7 friends with me. We stayed until almost closing and had a blast both times. The energy is fun, the vibe is unique, and it definitely stands out as a great little hidden gem. However, I’m giving 3 stars because of how a recent event was handled. During a themed night, there was a Kesha singalong competition where the winner (my niece) was supposed to receive tickets. Despite being announced as the winner, they were never contacted or given the promised concert tickets. We’ve reached out through calls, emails, comments, and direct messages (to the club and even ownership) hasn’t resulted in any response. So, if you're looking for a quirky spot with a good atmosphere and don’t mind the occasional hiccup in event follow-through, this could still be a fun choice. Just manage expectations when it comes to promotional promises.

I will never not recommend crush as one of my favorite gay bars in DFW!!! From the amazing handcrafted drinks, to the talented queens! Let’s not forget about the RU-girls!!! Crush is one of the best bars I’ve ever been to. Its picture perfect aesthetic is so pleasing to the eye. I built the most amazing memories and made such great connections here. The events and the crowd will always be on top. The owners and amazing workers have my whole heart!!! If you don’t go to crush what are you even doing in Dallas?!

Have been coming here since early july of this year and have already felt like family every time I go. Thank you for providing a fun safe place for beautiful queer people!

Bartender over charged me for well drinks on 8/6/2025, around 7:30pm, for happy hour with DWC. I was charged $12 when well drinks are ADVERTISED as $3.50. While not advertised, my friend was charged $6 for plain soda/coke. That's too much on a slow Wednesday night. We asked about the pricing and the handsome bartender said Special pricings are NOT for groups. We both left, feeling taken advantage of. Hopefully the owner sees this and re-train staff

CRUSH is hands down a must go to spot! They have amazing drag shows and all the popular rugirls weekly! gorgeous bartenders! the atmosphere takes you outside of the normal bars on the strip and makes you feel like you are in LA or NYC! You have to try all of their signature cocktails! The one that comes in a mini bathtub is my favorite! best part is the mechanical willy! i brought my sister for her bachleroette party and the girls would not get off the giant mechanical willy

Such a cute new space! Great stage for having the drag queens perform! The dolls were iconic! The bartenders are fun, beautiful, and very hospital! The drinks are reasonable priced AND delicious, which is such a delight to have this day and age! Good music with amazing visuals! The lighting and atmosphere is great! Fun gogo dancers too! Table service if you want to have something special for you and your group! Happy to see more inclusive gay spaces in Dallas! 🕺🏾🪩🕺🏾🪩

Was finally able to come here and was excited to see the place in person. Unfortunately I was very underwhelmed and embarrassed I brought friends here. As someone that also has worked in this industry for almost two decades you guys have room to improve. This isn't a harsh criticism so please take to heart what I have to say. I have operated bars and I currently own 4 that are all doing very well. You guys need to change the drinks, they are filled with sugar currently with lack of flavor and I didn't see many people getting a 2nd drink. If they did it was something different off the menu to try. If the drinks aren't good people will not stay. The signature drinks must be a hit because you can go anywhere for a vodka tonic. I can help you with some creative delicious recipes that do work. The goal is getting customers to order that 2nd drink at least. The bathrooms were horrible all night, no one is watching or cleaning them. Need one of the five bartenders behind the bar not doing something to take this on as their side work. This was honestly when we decided to leave because it was embarrassing to see how bad they were. Need better seating set up. The high tops smashed to the side of the walls doesn't work. Put a rail up on the wall so people can put their drinks down without needing a table. Put some tables in the back for those that don't want to be by the stage and the louder music. You guys already did great with the golf cart to bring people from the normal gay bar stretch to you and entertainment you book is great! Keep someone on the "bull ride" to encourage others to try it. This makes you unique to the other bars in the area to make you stand out for more fun. Finally you both as owners are a huge draw physically looking as you know, so when people come here and you aren't there especially on a weekend they are already disappointed to not have that eye candy. You both are the main reasons people come here, let's be honest.
