Station 4

The place is quite large and spacious, suitable for the enjoyment of any number of people, I was there a few days ago and I enjoyed it very much, the show was great with a lot of variety and versatility on stage, the service of the place is what is not really at the level of the site, according to what I was informed at 2 in the morning, drinks in glass cups are not allowed but they cannot change them to paper cups that they have all along the bar, why I do not know. A drink that they had sold me a few minutes before for 15 dollars was snatched from my hand by one of the people who works there with dragon makeup coming directly from the Targaryens, something horrible and disrespectful, I spoke with the manager about it, he was very kind and understood the situation but unfortunately his staff ultimately eliminated my 5 star experience from that place.

This is a review of the Velvet Rodeo show, heldnat Station 4. There was a preview about 30 mins before the actual show started, so that was a little confusing on start time because of the time in between that and the actual beginning. Once it was actually started, I couldn't move out of fear of missing anything. Every moment of this show was absolutely captivating. Between the strength to perform the acrobatics, the singers voice caressing your ears, and the crowd engagement, this one of the best shows I've seen in a long time!

$8.50 for a 20oz Powerade is absurd. Enjoyed the circus style burlesque show and there’s plenty of parking walking distance.

The performance was fabulous. The seating was not… The chairs were squished way too close together was worse than a very small airplane. If I was a little bit bigger than I am, I would not have been able to sit there at all, but other than that, the show was wonderful. !

One of the best gay nightclubs I've been to. The music is great, love that they also have other areas to play pool, or to simply enjoy a high quality drag show. It's one of the few places that close very late, the only thing is that they stop selling alcohol at 2:00am but you can still buy water or other non alcoholic drinks to keep you hydrated. I was surprised that there were lots of guys with their shirts off, others even wearing jockstraps or tiny shorts (in some clubs this is not allowed at all), so I really loved that you can be yourself in this place. Highly recommended.

After two really weird and uncomfortable nights at other clubs in Dallas (seriously, we were saying it was our last time ever coming here 😭), Station 4 completely brought our hopes back! The vibe was everything and just full of good energy. Everyone was so welcoming. I finally felt like I could actually enjoy myself without being stared at or pushed around. If I ever come back to Dallas, I’m 100% coming back to Station 4 (even though I’m straight! 😂) It was seriously the highlight of the weekend.

I was really excited to visit a club in Dallas where the LGBTQ+ should feels welcomed, but bartender Jessie was excessively exclusive and rude. They made me feel uncomfortable and unaccepted here. The club in all other aspects is fun and party worthy, but the staff should be more inclusive instead of trying abusing their power.

What kind of joke is this “free” stamp? If it has an expiration, maybe try telling people instead of just charging them anyway. Your staff couldn’t be bothered to explain a single thing and acted like we were the problem for asking. Rude, unprofessional, and clearly just a way to nickel-and-dime people. If you’re going to run shady promotions, at least train your staff not to be condescending when they get called out on

It's a gay dance bar. What's not to love? It's a fantastic place to be for big events. Regular nights tend to be hit and miss. The venue is so large it can look dead inside pretty easily. Straight girls tend to wander in and act like they've never seen hot shirtless men before. Which....I guess could be true considering the busted girls that walk through and treat it like a visit at the zoo. Aside from the handful of sorority "Ashleigh's" that walk through the doors - it's actually a fun place to go with a group. Dance floor is on the first floor. Drag shows on the second. Outdoor patio area on the side. Check it out. Just don't bring your disrespectful straight girlfriends.

S4 was a great venue for the Spectrum event thrown by Purple Foundation! Highly recommended!

@ Chelsea F! Station 4 is an amazing venue. And @ your "racist" comment, no self respecting gay man will tolerate any straight bitches from Bastrop Louisiana. Keep you trashy ass at home. And we hate bridal parties even more!!!!!

EXTREMELY loud even for a gay club. Like bring earplugs cause they don't have any and you will definitely need them. Or better yet don't come at all its an $8 charge for a super dead scene. Really creepy vibes from a lot of old men there and the rest were giving underage. the music isnt good either unless youre into super early 2000s type cheesy DDR-type techno. Also the drag queens were rly strange when we went to the show. There was hardly anyone in the audience and the drag queens just walked around and tried to collect $ and barely did anything. Just completely avoid honestly and spend your $8 on a beer at a much better club lol.

S4 will forever be one for the books. The crowd is always great! Be sure to catch the drag shows upstairs in the Rose Room! Don't forget to tip the queens, they always put in the extra work. There's a total of 5 bars here, so you won't go thirsty. When I say, I come here for the cardio workout, I'm not kidding! The tunes are always banging, the dance floor is always flooded and you may run into a hottie.

Typical experience at a gay bar! Mostly a good time. There was a $8 cover on a Friday night and it was dead inside which wasn't ideal. We went up stairs for the drag show! The queens were pretty entertaining overall. Drinks were okay. Nothing special as you would expect. Dance floor didn't get busy until 230am since everywhere else closes. I'd probably come back.

Eight dollars for a non alcoholic beer. So basically the same price as a regular beer. Basically the cost of the whole case. Thanks for supporting those of us are trying to be healthy on occasion...

This is a great Girls night out club! The line outside was hello long and the charge to enter was a bit high. We all wanted to dance the away. The DJ and the 24,000-sq.-ft. dance area were amazing. The bar keeps upstairs make the strongest drinks on the street. Plus, upstairs is where the entertainment is a truly astonishing drag show lounge. I try to get my place early because it gets packed. The show was free so tip the girls!!!

This is absolutely the worst place on the strip. They did nothing but treat my friends and me like garbage, calling in "security" to escort us out after nothing more than us waiting in line to enter. I have never been treated so poorly in my own neighborhood, and I am absolutely appalled that this still happens. I'll never set foot in a bar owned by this company. You all need to treat your community better.

I was visiting for the weekend and friends took me to get drinks. It is a a fun place bartenders are a little slow bit overall do a good job. There are so many different places to hang out. I would go back again.

The bouncers are rude and racist. The security guards are cool but the music sucks and the only reason their doors are still open is because they're the only after-hours club on the strip. Zero stars.

I don't know what's happened to this place but the bar staff has serious issues. I live a mere blocks away and have spent thousands of dollars here and typically had a good time in the past. Here lately though good luck getting anything from the bar staff unless you 25 and cute or one of their friends. Repeatedly past over while standing in line to get a drink by two different bartenders while they helped one friend after another that jumped the line. Ended up just leaving, I have no intentions of returning to an establishment that doesn't want my business.

HORRIBLE!!!! For a Friday night, they charged a cover at the door just to walk into an empty dance floor. There were other clubs with lines that weren't charging and was waaaay better!!!! Also, who ever the Jewish bartender gentleman upstairs is, RUDE!!! Absolutely rude! He skipped me and my friend 3 times! Also once he did acknowledged us, he quickly turned away and helped someone else!!! What kind of southern hospitality is this?!

WATCHOUT station 4 will steal your money the next day after charging you once the first time also don't buy drinks here expensive drinks aren't even that good for that price

Locals refer to this place as an after hours spot! Guess they haven't seen a after hours spot in Detroit. Thai is just a local gay bar with a dance floor. No military discount, shame on you! But other then that it was fun. Couldn't pick out any songs from the DJ, shame again. Coke on lively up a lil.

Visited for Gay Bingo and had an absolute blast. The staff was friendly, the drinks were flowing, the Queens were amazing! They have the event once a month so definitely check out their schedule. All proceeds go to charity which is another plus!

$16 for 3 water. Exploitive bullshit. . Aggressively terrible music (like the worst remixes of the worst, just because you vieplay circuit doesn't mean you can't have a point of view ),

Came here on a Saturday night after going to a few other bars. Out of all the places we went to that night this one was my favorite. Everyone here is so friendly and accepting. We came here around 1 and it wasn't super busy, but there was a good amount of people. You do have to pay an $8 dollar cover to get it. I guess that's kinda a downside because every other place we went to was free, but it is cheaper than what I pay to get into the club. By the time I finally decided to go buy a drink at the bar, it was already 2 so I can't really say much on the drink prices or if they are any good. This place does have an outdoor patio, and they have free popcorn! Overall I just really like this place and I really recommend coming here if you're looking to have a good time.

We visited last night for the show, the place was packed, the show hosted by Cassie was a great time getting to see some favorites and Jaidyn from Rupaul's Drag Race fame. After the show we went downstairs to dance the night away. We were a little disappointed since the DJ was mixing up some terrible music, a mix between techno rap and short hip hop tunes that nobody recognized. Although the place had a sizable crowd, there were just a few people on the dance floor, when the song would change and there were lines to exit the dance floor. I don't know who was spinning, but they should seriously consider showing up to work rather than phoning it in. A Dance Bar should at least have a DJ that is in touch with the partiers.

I've always made a point to visit S4 when I was in Dallas. I've had a lot of memories in this bar. My fiancée and I had our first date here. Our first kiss. First drag show. We've always loved coming. However, this past weekend we brought our friend because she wanted to have a fun time in Dallas. We are all lesbians. And almost as soon as we walk in my friend was sexually assaulted by a man. Shortly after that my fiancée was sexually assaulted by another man. Bobby (an amazing bartender and popcorn giver) was furious. They quickly took us to the managers. The manager given to us seemed to care less. He even told my friend that "you know it'll take me two hours to find this guy right?" He led us back to the dance floor and left us. He acted like the whole situation was a inconvenience for him. My friend found him within five minutes and had to find the manager to kick the guy out. However, we couldn't locate the guy who assaulted my fiancée. It's upsetting that this happened. That three women can walk into a gay bar and get assaulted shortly after arriving. You have a duty to protect your patrons. You need to treat them with respect. Thank you Bobby for being the only good one. We won't be back. Because I will not give money to a business that could care less about their patrons.

Gay Bingo is the worst thing ever. The host sucks and completely discriminated against our group and made us sit in "jail" meaning we couldn't play the bingo that we each paid $40 for because the host wanted to tell us we broke the rules. I will NEVER return and thank god it was for a good cause otherwise, I would demand a refund because of the trashy ass host. So rude. So disrespectful. So discriminatory in a supposedly "safe" and "accepting" environment. Couldn't be more disappointed.

DO NOT USE YOUR CARD AT THIS BAR! Make sure to bring cash. THEY WILL STEAL FROM YOU. Me and my friends bought drinks and payed the cover fee and ALL 4 OF US have charges the days after and they tipped themselves amounts we didn't approve of.

Went there for pride. The music on the patio was incredible. It was packed. Then you go inside to the dance floor and the music sucked ass. I think there was a total of 10 people dancing. Everyone left and went to sue Ellen's. They definitely need a new DJJ..

A staple gay club in Dallas. The Rose Room is on the second floor of this establishment and it's always such a good time! The performers are interactive and friendly. They welcome everyone (yes, even the straights). I can't speak to the dance environment for this place because it seems that they have closed down the dance area for reconstruction. They may have reopened it, though. Definitely recommend!

Best club to go dancing (or bar hop). This is a gay establishment but there are tons of girls who feel welcome / not hit on who can let go and have a blast. There's a drag show upstairs that is always amazing. I always get there 2 hours early to get a table/front row. Pro tip - if you're late - you will have to stand in the back of the show.

Always a good time here. The show upstairs is top notch and the dance floor is packed and everyone will have a good time. The staff is super friendly and the drinks are strong so prepare to have a great evening. When you need a break there is a great patio upstairs the length of the building that overlooks the street life.

There are some places In Dallas you can't say you've never been, and some people you shouldn't say you haven't met. The Rose Room, and GM Sandy are two of them. The Rose room offers some of the best impersonation entertainment you'll find ANYWHERE, and Sandy keeps you on your toes with his quick wit, yummy cocktails and big big butt. It doesn't matter if you're part of the gay community or someone who just loves and supports it. you'll love it here and will meet some amazing people from everywhere. Drink prices are really fair, but this area gets crowded on the weekends so Uber or come early to find a place to park.

Always a good night out on the weekends to dance. If you're going out on a Friday night, check the Station 4 Dallas Facebook page for a password that gives you free admission until a certain time. Usually people get stamped early in the night, leave for other bars, and then come back when those other bars close at 2 am to dance the night away. I've stayed several times dancing until 4 am. The Rose Room is upstairs and has great drag. Always a good show up there. Whether you're going out with friends or for a night alone (and maybe on the prowl ), S4 is a place you should check out. Very accepting of all! An LGBTQ+ friendly place most definitely. lights flashing around feeling the good beats and vibes dance the night away

This was a wonderful place to hangout. This place is so huge. It has two place to play pool and a room upstairs for the drag shows. It has two outside sitting area and I couldn't even count to amount of bars. The staff was super friendly and really helped us celebrate the life of my friend Jay. Rest In Peace Jay.

Came on a Saturday night; at around 1AM there was no line, which was nice because Uptown got super packed. Unfortunately, i didn't know that there was an 8$ cover charge, but in the end it was pretty worth it. When we walked in, the music had just stopped and the dancefloor was kind of empty. I was pretty worried that this was going to turn into a waste of 8$. But, my friends and I went to the second floor to explore, and we stumbled upon a gem! A.k.a our very first drag show! it was incredibly entertaining; the emcee was hilarious, but beware to not draw her attention/ire, or else you'll be the butt of every joke she makes. The performers were all great, and we had a blast at the show. After 2AM the dancefloor got packed! I think because S4 stays open til 4AM, so everyone shows up around 2. The music was really good later on in the night, and there was a lot of interesting dancing happing on the floor. Overall, great place to go to dance later in the night, but show up a bit early to miss the line and go watch the drag show!

Love this place! I'm straight but I love the gayborhood! Everyone is always so friendly and accepting! Cheap cover, tipped the door people like 12$ and they were so happy and hugged me and my boyfriend! Lol I love that kind of warmth and hospitality! They always play popping music to dance to, open til 4am so perfect if you want to keep partying and they have a big badass smoking patio! 5 stars from me!

I recently saw the musical Kinky Boots at Fair Park Music Hall and thought it was high time I get back to S4. The last time I enjoyed their show of 'female and illusionists' was summer 2011; way too long ago. A bit has changed since then. They're featuring less of the 'OMG, I can't believe not female' (only two this time) and all the talent spent considerably less time on the stage putting on a show. Most didn't even get through the 3rd line of lip syncing their lyrics before they hopped down to work the crowd for the money grab. The exception was 'Beyonce'; she stormed the stage with 2 backup dancers and truly put on a well choreographed performance. She made the evening worth the while!

Wow this place does drag the right way. They have a stage with a great production team. Not to mention some pretty crazy talented drag queens that deserve awards. I have never been so impressed with a drag show. This isn't a small stage either. Its (hate to use this word because of a certain president elect) huge. And you can be damn sure that those drag queens use every inch of that stage. The place was packed too. I would love coming here all the time if I lived here. I forget the performer but these dallas drag queens knows how to read a crowd to filth (reading is basically roasting someone and their expense). The place has an upstairs and a downstairs with many rooms that house a dancefloor, stage for drag shows, and bars with pool tables. The patio is also two stories. There are many places to escape to if you need to do a lap or a change in scenery. They have some confusing cover criteria as well. I heard from one person that you needed a password or something like that but when we went to the door all you needed was to get in by 11pm to get in for free. They have a really good happy hour on friday so make sure to look up the specials on the day you come. Overall, if you like drag you NEED to come here and if you don't EDUCATE YOSELF. I love it, OFFICIALLY.

I don't care if you're straight, gay or anything in between this place is freaking popping. I just came for Halloween and it was amazing. The lights and strobe effects are second to none and way better than it'll do and stereo live and all of the other clubs in Dallas. The music is unbelievable and the dance floor on the first floor is big with plenty of space to dance. Everyone is kind, polite and understanding of all orientations. The second floor has drag shows and other great events.

Large club in Dallas. Likes the music and overall vibe. Would definitely recommend going.

Woah-oh-oh-oh, Woah-oh-oh-ohh! It's always a good time! Woah-oh-oh-oh, Woah-oh-oh-ohh! We don't even have to try, it's always a good time!! That's right! You're bound to have a good time up in good ol' S4. Now, I've heard that it's one of the best gay clubs in the country.. and I can't attest to that because I've only been in Honolulu (where the gay clubs are def lacking). But I will say that I can believe it! If it's not the best, it's definitely gotta be up there. It's not entirely a gay crowd, it's a pretty decent mix. The place is gigantic! It can be super packed and you won't feel it, which is great. With the exception of Halloween.. it is CROWDED. But an amazing time and a great sight to see. The music is pretty decent, better on some nights than others. The technology of the place is pretty sweet. The drinks are...ehhh. But like I always say, if you can let me know of a night club where the drinks aren't overpriced and watered down, I'll give you... well nothing, but that'd be a pretty hard thing to find. The drag show in the Rose Room is pretty fantastic, but get there early! Parking pretty much blows, but that's Oak Lawn on Fri/Sat. nights. Cover is usually about $6 for 21+ and I want to say $20 for 18+... but don't quote me on that, not 100 on it. The bathrooms are pretty nasty, but that's all clubs. They have the bathroom lady & all the crapola they bring, but again that's about all clubs. If you like to dance and have a good time... you'll def love this place! And you don't even have to try!

The S4 is a awesome club for Dancing, Music, Drinks & Relaxing on the patio! Nice bartenders who know how you make a drink! Management is the best around! The Female impersonators in the Rose Room give you 100 percent entertainment! You can't help but get into the show! Check it out!

I had such a friggin good time it's hard to subtract any stars from this place! My girls took me here for my bachelorette party, so we got here around 9:30 and headed up to the Rose Room. The drag show kept us entertained for hours, but be careful when they pull the bride up to the stage. Some of the girls can be pretty forthright, so be sure the bride to be is not easily offended! :) Be prepared to lose your voice and all your dollars by the end of the night. To end the night, we headed downstairs to dance with the boys who always seem to know how to have a good time! The drinks were cheap ($2 wells) and no worrying about creepy guys hitting on us! The music was good if you don't mind Britney Spears blasting every few minutes (which I don't). They have a safe parking lot to the side of the club which is a huge plus. Definitely a place to have some classy fun!

S4 has a special place in my heart since it was my first gay club (and my my I have been to quite a few since!). Seriously, I do enjoy the club itself. The lighting system is bonkers, the bartenders are adorable and sassy, the Rose Room is always a jackpot of fun, the music is hits-galore, and the place is huge. HUGE! It'll take you all night to explore all the rooms and outdoor area. The only real flaw with the club is perhaps the crowd - it's a lot of young boys and older daddies. And I think the chances of meeting your soulmate here are pretty slim. But if your motivation is to shake your ass to some good dance music and bust a few moves (everyone practices a little at home, right?), then S4 is a good gay time!

I was very excited about the drag show ! Had to leave because people were soo rude. But the place was nice

Arguing with a bartender showing that they are unprofessional just the sole fact that the drink I had was terrible. Other establishments would be okay with remaking, but she complained about doing so, clearly made the night terrible. I am rating it poorly because of the bartender, but that's about it.

I love this place. It's so much fun. The music and the energy are always on point. The drag shows are amazing. Lots of room to dance and have a good time. And all the bartenders I've gotten drinks from are always very nice and sometimes even funny.

Note well: My review only covers what I've experienced when attending the Resource Center of Dallas' monthly GayBingo events; I suspect this is NOT the application that most people have in mind with S4. If you're still interested, read on. :) The primary GayBingo venue is the Rose Room; this area is great for the shows and stage-centric activities. The expansive bar is accessible and features great bartenders who will take good care of you. The men's room features only a single toilet stall with no latch (hmmmm) and several urinals; it's also staffed with an attendant who's good for a smile and a piece of gum or a squirt of cologne. I've also been in the Granite Bar for GayBingo; it's not as well appointed, but still a decent space. Downstairs is the main dance floor, for which I've never been there late enough to see in use, but the metal floor makes me wonder if they break out the bumper cars late at night or something. Again, I can only speak for GayBingo, but S4 seems to be a pretty solid place to me.

The first few times I went there was some light unwelcome groping. The last time I went a guy full on forcefully stuck his hand up my skirt and touched me. I saw a blow job in action a couple times right in the middle of the dance floor. A couple of fights. I've never seen security intervene in any of these situations. If you're a straight/bi/or gay woman thinking this might be a safe place to visit, you would be sadly mistaken. I don't really think it's safe for anyone. Beware!!

I hate when clubs don't have accurate reviews, so I will try to be as descriptive as possible as to why I am only giving four stars as opposed to five. When you walk in, the entrance is nice and the usual greeter is friendly. It's clean and the traffic seems to flow very well. The setup of the club is really nice. Big open dance floor that ends up jam packed. Plenty of seating. The music is generally a good mixup of mashups and house. People come very casual to this club. Jeans, flats, or as little as you want. Anything pretty much goes here. The bathrooms could use some work. They aren't very clean or well kept, which is kind of a big thing for me when I have had a drink or two. Lots of vommiters in the bathroom too which to me means people are being over served...but who knows. (to each their own on that) The drag show, I think it lacks in performance. It's neat to see once and they are totally glammed out, but I just feel it would be nice if there was more dance or more singing instead of the lip singing. I just felt it was a lot of free money being handed to people who weren't doing that much. Beyoncé was incredible! She had the best attitude/performance of all the ones we saw last week. This was my second time to see the show at S4. Overall, the drinks are well poured and an average price for Dallas of $8 for premium brands. The bar tenders are friendly and prompt. The club is pretty clean and I think most people will have a good time here.

This is by all accounts a "twink" or wanna be/has been twink bar. There are groups of straight bachelorettes that go to dance with the gay boys--this is becoming a common trend in many cities across America so it's not just S4. The straight clientele, especially the women, don't have to worry about, "putting out" with the gay boys. Once drunk the straight girls tend to be a little bit out of control and sloppy drunk. A number of patrons who frequent this place clearly parTy which is problem. Dallie-Tude rude is king here with lots of young guys flaunting their name brand clothing! S4, is busy--loud, and draws a young, inmature, crowd that's still coming to grips with their own sexual orientation. "The White Boys" are the "gate keepers" and tollerance can be low towards anyone who doesnt fit the Calvin Klein, Abercrombie and Fitch, or Hollister stereotypes. It will never be a NYC, Los Angeles, or Miami level club--the crowd will ensure that. A very cliquish crowd with over the top attitudes.

I had this rated at 5-stars but as much money as I've spent in this club to be treated by one of the managers the way I have I feel it's time to downgrade. Read GayDfw for further updates.

This club is always full and everyone genuinely looks like they are having a great time. I've only been twice and both experiences with the bar tenders have been quite enjoyable not to mention they have great recommendations if you want to try different cocktails. The rose room with the drag queens makes this club stand out and the shows are to die for. They also don't have a strict dress code like most clubs which is definitely a plus. Overall I'd recommend this club if you're looking to have a night to remember!

$8 cover, still not bad! And they close at 4am!! Unfortunately, we were only able to grab 1 drink at this bar since it was basically last call by the time we got in. This place is HUGE! I loved how the dance floor was big enough for people to spread out so it wasn't super cramped. We were lucky enough to be able to catch the last performance of the Drag Show upstairs! I guess they do save the best for last, because the performer sang Taylor Swift's Trouble and it was hilarious!! Soooo entertaining! I wish we went earlier to catch the other performances! I'd come back to this club if I lived in the area or the next time I'm visiting.

Dang.. Why so many gay folks in this joint?? Later I found out it was gay club. Anyway me and my big booty Asian gf about to turn up with gay folks. Drinks was strong, music was on point. Food. There is no food. (As foodie I can't comply with that) so I have to give them 4 star. Overall s4 is a place you must try.
