Oilcan Harry’s

Oilcan Harry’s has the best drag shows Austin has to offer. This bar became my safe space. All the queens are stunning and amazingly talented! and I always have to give a shoutout to my bby Harlot!! She is and will always be the reason I fell in love with drag!!

l about a couple years ago I came to Austin because of my birthday into visit my family I'm probably one of the last of the living Legends from the '80s era and of course I'm older now and I do perform from time to time and I reached out to show directors in Austin and still to this day can't get booked so when I came to Austin I decided let me go ahead and just do the talent show I show up I'll beat out 12 girls 11 to 12 so then I get booked for the brunch the next week and while I'm at the brunch the MC ask me would you like to come do the talent night again I said oh I'm allowed to she said yeah I go back which was actually my birthday I win again but when they called out the winner who was Jamie Perry she said well since PT won last week she can't win this week which she could have told me that when I walked through the door I was disappointed I was hurt being a legend someone who has performed way before a lot of these girls were even born I started dragging 1982 and for me to come into the bar and beat out 12 girls 2 weeks in a row I should have been offered a booking If not a booking that night or the next week and maybe sometime before the year was over I've reached out to the show director who actually told me she was going to book me after the show never heard back I've reached out to orkin Harry still hadn't heard anything Just imagine you being from a city that you love a city that where you got your drag start from and you've been asking and asking and asking an even contacting the Austin Pride committee and no one response to you Just remember everybody who reads this comment that does drag you'll get in your '60s one day too I'm not asking to be booked every week I'm not asking even to be paid a lot of money Just the fact that I'm still around and still performing it would really be nice if someone would reach out to me and every once in awhile reach out to some of the older girls that are still around in the city and show them love we have to learn to respect our elders and show our elders respect because they laid the foundations for the girls to do what they do now Peace and blessings I hope everybody understands that this is not a read it's just how I feel thank you

Hands down my favorite Bar to come to when I go out in Austin. I love the atmosphere and the vibes. I love the drag shows and the staff is always so friendly. I’ve been there a handful of times now and the manager, Kristen, is always so friendly every time I run into her. Even though she is busy, she always stops to say hi. I will always make it a point to go to OCH whenever I can. 💜 Thanks for being you OCH, never change. 🥰

Super fun place to see a show and hang out for a bevy. We selected this place because they do let 18-21 in with a cover charge. Welcoming friendly place in downtown Austin.

I’ve been here a few times and always had an amazing experience. The atmosphere is very inclusive and welcoming. The staff is always great and super friendly, my favorite reason to come is for the drag shows! There is a great variety of performers and acts. I recommend this place to anyone trying to have a fun night out any day of the week!

Great Music! Great Entertainment! Never felt more comfortable in a nightclub! Cover charge was only $5 for a Saturday night and I appreciated it! Gotta love the drag queens who always slay! Plus every staff was friendly!

I came for the Saturday night drag show and it was an absolute blast! The queens were incredibly, there was audience participation, popular music, and all around great vibes. I came from out of town not knowing what to expect and met lots of great people who were there to have fun. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun night. Traveler/solo visitor friendly as well

Love this bar. Definitely better vibes than most in the area. Diverse theme nights and amazing bar staff/management. Kristen is awesome and knows how to pour them. Great service and a great time.
