"This spot aims to be the friendliest bar in Texas but your money’s no good here at Hidden Door — well, your credit card, that is. This LGBTQ-friendly bar only accepts cash, and the drinks are stacked with enough booze to keep the party going from 7 a.m. to 2 a.m. Yes, they open that early." - Eater Staff

"Your money’s no good here. Well, on your cards, that is. The Hidden Door is a cash-only establishment. Opened in 1979, The Hidden Door is one of the city’s best neighborhood bars thanks to its dedicated crowd of regulars and ridiculously friendly bartenders." - Amy McCarthy, Alex Gonzalez

Best bar for bears and/or laid back people. Accepting everybody and best atmosphere ever. Not to mention the best price for drinks EVER (cash only) they have an ATM 🏧 machine

I’m sitting here reading some of these reviews and I think that some of these reviews people,you should be embarrassed and ashamed to write such crap about one of the friendliest bars in Dallas Fort Worth .What this bar does for the community alone is well Worth a five stars they take care of the community and they give back. They take care of their employees and they also take care of the neighborhood. This is a fun loving bar . (Where else are you gonna get puff popcorn and hot crackers ) Yes, You might get a bartender that might be rude one day and the next Day is most incredible person there is it happens. People have bad days, especially when there’s A lineof people wanting to get a drink they are only doing the best that they can when they’re that many people. I read these reviews that these people leave and it’s sad that people can be this mean for no reason. This is a good place and I’m glad to call it my home Bar . The people that work there are incredible . They all deserve A thank youfor putting up with some of the crap they have to put up with from people that write reviews like that. Thank you, Hidden Door. You’re a great bar!!

Best bear bar in Dallas. The margaritas are always 4 bucks and dollar Jell-O shots. The Atmosphere is very casual, and they have a spacious double deck in the back.

If you know, you know. If you don't know, go here and you will. Best in Dallas bar none. LGBTQIA+ welcome. No cliques. Safe space for everyone, no matter who you are, you are welcome here.

Why is it GLBT and not LGBT ? The L comes first in honor of the lesbians who took care of us when we were dying of aids and even doctors wouldn’t touch us. Shameful.

Several times now I’ve played music on their jukebox only to have someone turn it off or skip to the next song. I don’t think a paying customer should be treated this way 😖
