Redline - Food & Bar

"Q Voice News reports that Downtown LA’s queer bar destination Redline will be closing after eight years." - Matthew Kang

"Redline opened next to the noteworthy Precinct in 2014 and maintains loyal crowds who come regularly to drink truly great cocktails, dance, and nibble on light eats. A range of LGBTQ organizers also host regular events here." - Jireh Deng, Kyle Fitzpatrick, Eater Staff

"We love Redline because it’s one of the few queer bars Downtown where you can come in for a well-made cocktail after-work and talk to a bartender who will actually listen. That said, if you do feel like leaning into the revelry a bit, Redline has incredible queer programing throughout the week. That includes guest DJs, RuPaul’s Drag Race viewing parties, and a Detroit Vesey's drag brunch residency that runs Friday through Sunday. " - Brant Cox

"If you didn’t get the partying in like you wanted to last weekend, head to Redline for a full weekend of events. The Downtown queer bar hosts a a UK Drag Race viewing party on Thursdays, drag brunch on Sundays, and various DJ sets and performances on Friday and Saturday night." - Brant Cox

"In Downtown, owner Oliver Alpuche opened Redline seven years ago, expanding DTLA’s queer nightlife blocks away from the popular and now closed Bar Mattachine." - Mona Holmes
