Review from Lisa S.

I went to the Lex last Thursday with a friend, because I was interested in checking it out after her raving. I had read the Yelp reviews, and was a little leery. Apparently, many people feel they have gotten attitude and poor service for not fitting into a certain type of classification.
Fortunately, this wasn't our experience. I definitely don't fit in with the typical clientel, but I never felt out of place. There was no door-lady when we entered- must have been in the bathroom or something. We went straight to the bar, it was 9pm or so. There were people, but not crowded. The place was smaller and divier than I had expected, but I like that.
The bartender was super friendly, and it was nice being in a bar of mostly lesbians. Definitely has a different feel. My friend and I spent most of the night enjoying our drinks. It got much busier as the night progressed. By midnight we were out of there.
I would be happy to go back another time. Minus one star because for a dive bar, I feel that the drinks were probably overpriced by about $1 each. -

This place is just not my scene. Seriously ladies, some tacky shit goes down here. I won't go into details but the last time I went, I saw a public blowjob simulation on some girl's fingers that I'm going to guess was a first date...further guessing would be a Craigslist first date. Fo real. No one needs to see that. The couple left for the bathroom together and I didn't see them come back out. Let your imagination wander.
Actually, now I think about it, I'm going to bump the Lex up to a 3.5 for pure entertainment value and people watching. I wish there was more sitting space here and that I could turn around without bumping into someone, but I can't hate too much on the only dyke bar in SF. Not my favorite spot to hang out at but I'll go if I'm forced to.
Just a warning to the very femme femmes who don't have any hipster blood in you, don't expect to feel welcome here unless you bring a friend who fits the cliquey crowd. There are some very judgemental patrons about. I can't help it if I look straight. SF really needs another lesbian bar with more diversity because everyone here looks the same. If you don't fit the stereotypical lesbian mold or you're not a Mission hipster, this might not be your scene. It's like the movie Mean Girls and you need to be in with The Plastics. So if you want the cool kids to like you, bring your own Regina George and make sure she has adequate ink, a plaid button-down shirt, skinny jeans, and a faux hawk. You've got your checklist. Good luck.Listed in: Lesbian Bay Guide: Food and…

One star for the actual bar, because there was some sticky shit on the floor that was like goddamn superglue on my shoes and ruined my Ivanka Trump pumps (ok yeah laugh at the fact that I buy shoes that were designed by Ivanka Trump. Go ahead, I'll let you have your fun. Now go here http://ivankatrumpfoot... and see how cute and classy these things are and EAT YOUR WORDS). Seriously, I don't even want to guess what a bunch of hot tar is doing on the floor of the friggin' ONE lesbo bar in the gayest town in all the land, but fuck absolutely everything about this place for ruining my favorite shoes. Also, just FYI making out with a guy here does not go over well. Awkwarrrrrrd LMAORIGHT?
FIVE STARS FOR LESBIANS. -

I was visiting last week from Austin Texas, and I wanted to check out the famous Lex. This place was great, I ran into a bunch of friends from ATX and my girlfriend and I were treated like gold by the bartender, Gram. I liked how diverse the crowd was all in a comfy red bar. My only complaint.... I wish this bar was in Austin!

Best damn lesbian bar over all.... Ok ok, yes the bartenders can be a bit high and mighty... But I kinda like that attitude. It keeps the place in check. Drinks are great, crowded on some nights but fun every time. Now, you're a winner if u see a chick playing the pin ball machine, cuz that's just hot to watch ;) enjoy ladies.

Oh the Lex.
I've had some good and bad times here..
Actually all good besides that one time my girlfriend forced me to come here and entertain her closeted very inappropriate cheating "lesbian" friends from LA, they've been fantastic. I drank 5 Vodka on the rocks to try and numb out their wrong, wrong, wrong approach to everything outside of the Valley (bleh)
"OMG, god, like why do all these girls look like men?!!" at the top of their lungs....looking at me for answers as I gripped my GF's hand underneath the table. *Time for yet another Vodka on the rocks*
Besides that one scarring incident, I've had a lot of good good times here. There's always a fun crowd, it's run by women and they have great happy hours. Nice jukebox selections. I really really enjoy this bar.
I've met some really cool people here. It's def. worth checking out. -

"You do know what kind of bar this is right?"
*confused faces*
"Oh yes, we are at the Lex! No we are not out cruising...just boozing"
This was the first conversation we had as we were greeted at the door by one of the friendliest bouncers I have met in the Mission. Already a bit +. We sit down and meet up w/ some friends at the bar for a quick drink. Sadly they have to leave for dinner but we stay. Soon, the girls next to us start chatting it up after making out for a sloppy second. One girl starts talking to us....and talking.....and talking.....she didn't even realize when her friend left.
I take part in Smirnoff Ice Chugging contest. I lose by a hair (honestly the dude who won started early). What's not to like. Freindly/fast/attentive/fun bartenders, friendly girls who make out next to you, and you leave w/ a number in your pocket. I'll be back soon. -

Everything about this bar is amazing! They have an Indiana Jones pinball machine! The drink prices are fantastic, I got a shot of Whiskey and a Bud for $7. The Jukebox was great and the music playing at the time was fun. The bar lacked a lot of the prentention I had been greeted with everywhere else. Everyone was nice and friendly, with the exception of one girl fighting a losing battle with gravity (she wasn't mean, just made me uncomfortable). You will be hard pressed to find a better bar in San Francisco.

San Leandro, CA

Although I feel like a brat leaving a bad review for a dyke bar that exists, this place still feels like a sad reality for what San Francisco is worth. If someone showed me a magic crystal ball when I was queer at nine years old of this being what a SF lesbian bar is actually like, I probably would have cried about how scary it is. Or made a decision to become straight.
A couple of things. All these reviews about hot crowds kind of made me expect to feel like a kid in a candy store but I don't see any candy here at all. I just feel like a kid at OkCupid if OkCupid was a bar, with the weird kind of straight people included and maybe like one hot couple who look like they live together. Snoozefest. The bartenders are grumpy (because their bar sucks) and the door girl wouldn't let my friend walk out with a cup of water. For real? It seems that some lesbians prefer to U-haul with dogs and not cats, as proven by the clueless dykes who think it would be cool with their dog to bring them into a stinky dive bar with like two windows. Finally, a lonely, drunk cougar sitting behind me kept kicking the back of my chair to the beat of the jukebox the last time I was here and it was just like girl, stop you're doin too much -
Review from Melissa B.
7/16/2011
After reading some of the reviews of the Lex, I can't help but jump into the fray and join the debate. I've started (and ended) many a night at this fine establishment but found myself forced to give it only three stars. Why? Basically, my experiences are always either "TOTALLY AWESOME!" or "um i don't think we're welcome here" and absolutely nowhere in between. I've compiled a list of some of the factors that could determine your enjoyment level of an evening out at the Lex:
1) Did you bring straight men with you? Do you, gasp, look straight yourself? BIG mistake, unless your party has an exceptionally high tolerance for hostile glares and long waits at the bar. I love that it's a bar geared towards women, but a little more friendliness towards mixed groups could go a long way...
2) Do you enjoy cheap alcohol? Not just "oh wow, this is pretty good value," i mean CHEAP ALCOHOL. If so, excellent choice! No better place for a $1 margarita on a friday night!
3) How many tattoos do you have? Count them now. Award yourself extra points for short punky hair and piercings. If your number comes out over 10, you'll have a great time at the Lex. If not, it'll be hit or miss. (Though if you're into ladies who score high on this scale, you'll have a GREAT time!)
Overall, I can't hate on the Lex too much. Whether you feel snubbed or are welcomed with open arms, your time there is pretty much guaranteed to be memorable, and the cheap drinks make it a great launching pad to kick off a night in the city. -

I'm not a girl, and I'm not gay, but I occasionally come here with my les friends for...whatever reason they decide to bring me along.
I like going to girl bars because I feel of all the people in the SF Bay Area, they are the greatest challenge to my drinking skills. They are always ready to just shotgun 100 beers at any time.
Last time I was here, they had an awesome flip cup tournament. They even had trophies. I was pretty jelly of the winners.
One star off because as others have mentioned: it gets crowded. I suppose...that may not be a bad thing if you come to this bar looking for action. But when I'm trying to be extra careful to not make a bad impression, it's tough for me to get around. Also, if the people aren't drunk yet, sometimes they can be a little...aloof, until they realize you aren't a creeper and you're just someone's friend. -

If you're not down with the gays, you should be for a number of reasons. One of those reasons is the Lex.
On Tuesdays, they serve 2-for-1 drinks from 9-10pm. That's right. 2-for-1 drinks!!!!! I was like, "Um, what?" and the bartender was like, "I'm not kidding!" and I bought six. They also have penny shots on Tuesdays, as in, you pay one penny for one shot.
You guys. It does not get better than this.
For the record, I was here with my boyfriend and our straight male former housemate. No one cared that none of us were lesbians, so if being a non-lesbian is stopping you from dropping in, you should get over yourself and go support this bar.Listed in: Mission: Get drunk.

Review from chemmy d.
Berkeley, CA
6/27/2011
Pros: The art on the walls (creative), scribbled on the bathroom stalls (clever), and tattooed on the bartenders arms (if you're into that kind of thing) will make you smile. Some of their happy hours are insane- check out the schedule at http://www.lexingtoncl... . They have a drink for everybody, from PBR (hipster juice is only $1 on Mondays !) to sweet tea vodka and mind-blowing, tongue-numbing whiskey. The pinball machine and jukebox are a nice touch.
Cons: This place is SMALL. Too small. When you find yourself on the smoking patio because you need air you know your in trouble. Also, this may be unfair of me, but wow, there actually aren't many lezzie bars in SF, and as a result I have extra-high expectations for The Lex. It could use some more room to dance in, or a room for live music, or just some more room in general. But then again, that would undermine its hole-in-the-wall charm. I'll stop being a snob, this place is fun. -
Review from Mish L.
11/17/2010
On a jaunt through the Mish, my partner (male) suggested we hit up Lexington Club. Hell, why not?
First impressions are everything and it was great in the beginning -- tiny, dark, dank, divey, estrogen fest, for the win! So what if we screamed straight? I doubt anyone really cared.
We made our way to the bar, ordered our drinks and proceeded to try and find a space to stand. None. Standing room only. So we squeejeed our way to a small spot by the door. By the recycle bins. Not ideal but hey, we were there to enjoy the chill vibe.
That is until my partner set his drink on top of a bin and accidentally knocked it over, spilling it on the ground and onto the feet of the Blackberry toting girl bouncer by the door. Whoops! Accident right?
He proceeded to apologize right away and the bitch copped up with an mean glare and icy "Do you LIKE having drinks spilled on your toes?" and immediately turned back to her phone. Umm... no, but what?? Seriously? It wasn't on purpose and he had apologized.
We know you hate men and were pissed off the spilled drink interrupted your sexting with your girlfriend, but really?! That was no reason to be a bitch. After that, all I wanted to do was spill my drink on her Blackberry and punch her face in. So we left.
Way to ruin the experience on what would have otherwise been a cool bar. Lexington Club? More like Lexington Crap. -

Things were going well, things were going fine...
Ordered some drinks and was relaxing with my female (straight) partner.
All, I can say is that the crowd was respectful, drinks were strong but the doorperson was a complete b*&^h! Granted she was the door person and I did manage to spill some drinks(accidentally) on the back of her leg. I immediately apologised to her... But, wait. isn't this a bar?! Don't things like that happen here??!
She had the potential to make or break this place for us at that point. Pursuant to her conversation and rude behavior I can aptly say that I won't be back. You can have your crowded unassuming space on a quiet street in the Mission. Change the door girl and I'll change my impression of the bar. Until then...I'll skip it.
Still love the Mission!Listed in: SKIP!!!!!!

$2 Blue Moons on a Sunday evening? Yes, please I'll have another.
Every single song the bartender played was EXCELLENT, including but not limited to, Maria Carey's "Always Be My Baby."
As an added bonus to the evening, my best friend was day drunk and thought buying her first ever dildo. at Good Vibrations, would be a good idea. So we took the opportunity to take her to The Lezzington Club and mention it casually and as often as we could when other people were walking by.
I counted a total of one person with a penis during our time there, which is not something I appreciated, but I think my company did.
Also, someone barfed in the bathroom trashcan. On a Sunday. That's my kind of place. -

Been around the world and I I I... know me a lesbian bar when I see one. It takes all kinds. Back in Philly, the girl spot looked like Melissa Etheridge and Madonna from the 80s headed up the interior design. I'm talking tacky cheetah print frames, neon lights and a Andy Warhol inspired portraits of iconic lesbians. Needless to say, not my cup of tea.
Fast forward to San Francisco: The Lexington. If Joan Jett had a bar, it'd be this one. Grungy, unassuming, always busy, and if my few visits there count for anything, I'm pretty sure everyone knows each other. There's sometimes dancing, sometimes pool, and always a strong inexpensive drink.
Gay or not, this place is low key and chummy, just don't go expecting the bartender to blow you kisses.Listed in: SF Like a Local, San Francisco for Sinners, Gay in the Bay

New Year's eve 2011 @ the Lex was perfect!
Had the best time. Way to go crew!
This is the bar scene to check out if you're in the city and looking for some low key chatter or otherwise. It's a small venue but has just enough space to either stay intimate or be the lonely voyeur in the back corner.
Cash only! but there is an ATM machine inside. Bathrooms stay relatively clean 'cept on busy weekend nights when they can turn into a makeout area.
My only tip is that I wish MORE people would be friendlier. If you're standing/seated close to someone you don't know. . . don't stare. say hi!Listed in: Late night hangouts, Where to chill?

Cute girl at the door to check my ID, nice lady bartenders, a pinball machine, a lounge full of women, and a visit from the tamale lady! That pretty much summed up my Saturday evening stopping by the Lex for the first time.
The place was a bit too laidback for me for a Saturday night, but it was amusing watching how awkward the only two males in the room were!
If the tamale lady didn't come, I don't think my time here would've been worth it. :/ -

At least for the Mission, I'm a somewhat corporate-looking lez. I was intimidated by the Lex because I didn't want to be judged for not having tattoos.
But I should know better than to let my fears rule me! The Lex was friendly and pleasant, and busy but not overcrowded on a Thursday night. Inside it feels like a neighborhood joint, with pods of friends chatting, and a few people idly playing pool and choosing songs on the jukebox. People were easy to approach. Lots of smiling. Hot homos.

This place is gonna test you for 2 things:
1) Are you fat? It might be a little hard for you (and other patrons) to squeeze in here.
2) How lesbo are you? Technically you should be something or one of the following:
a) Not male
b) hipster
c) poser hipster (-_-)
d) butch/bull dyke
Well, it seems we have all somehow fit into one of those categories...

The bartenders think they are the cats meow and they can kick you out @ 130am, they are agressive and rude, no respect for locals who go in on a regular basis... I am sorry it's 130 AM and you are trying to take my drink from me, no thank you! We live a 1/2 a block away and visit regularly and WE WILL GLADLY SPEND OUR MONEY AT A STRAIGHT BAR WHO WILL LET US ORDER UNTIL A DECENT HOUR AND NOT BE AGRESSIVE THAN WASTE OUR MONEY WHERE ITS NOT RESPECTED, YOU ASSHOLES. People from out of the country/state/city flock to this place and it's always a disappointment. Have some fucking tact, your establishment is not that awesome! So many people who have visited in my time living a block away and taking them have hated their experience. I am just sayin"....

Best place to recommend any lesbians to hit up a bar besides Castro. If I had to choose a day to relax and catch time to get to know someone it would be here. I love the bar tenders and the bouncers because they are really laid back. Something that attracted me the most being here was the music. They play really good bands that would make you remember or sing along. What else that I also adore was the setting because they dim the lights, own a nice pin ball machine, and have candles set on to the table. I feel like this would be exactly a good spot to go on date.
p.s. Ask bartender this can you make me something "lesbian" and you'll get a shot of Jameson Irish Whiskey and side of Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer for only $7! So be prepared to double fist yourself! -

Oh, Ms. Lexy ~ You are SO Sexy!
While visiting some fun loving ladies in SF they invited Zak & I to check out their local bar they love - "The Lex".
OfCOURSE we wanted to see their favorite little dive!
Yes... it was packed and I was barely able to squeak my straight ass in the door ~ but once inside? Stiff drinks, an excellent beer selection, 1 rockin Bartender, & lovely people all around. The FUN candid photographs lining the wall are GREAT!
The four of us enjoyed a couple rounds together and chatted away before heading to see the PFT Show across the way. I love how they move all the weeknight furniture out of the way to make extra space for the Friday night wind down! Apparently on a weeknight you will find a pool table in the center and tables scattered about. They've got it figured out here at The Lex!
My favorite part of the Sexy Lex experience was while scanning the room my eyes met with a girl's who was walking steadily towards us in the hand of another girl. As she got closer I SWEAR I heard her turn to the other girl and say "They're straight. They're STRAIGHT!" and they quickly made a 180 and went back to where they came from.
If I didn't think my ears were trickin me, I would have yelled out "Wait, but THEY'RE not (and pointed to our friends we were with)!!
They were cute & they totally should have joined us in conversation! I guess being straight and all... we might have cramped their style? hehe
Until next time, Lex! You ROCK! What a great place. -

A gay dive bar? I'm kind of confused. Im kind of in love. Read On...
Divitydivedivedive -- TV but no channels (laker game missing?!?!?!?!) Pool table with booty short clad, mariah carey//madonna belting karaoke on top? A huge beer list that confuses the otherwise vodka drinking patrons? Some glitter and some hipster? Chill but abfab? Grungy fierceness of the mission's gay zone?
Okay, I get that this is a hot mess. I'm also kinda in love. Kind of like you love a pet rodent. Like a gerbil. You know its dirty confusing, and a bit off. But nevertheless you keep feeding it. You play with it. You stroke it.
...aaaaand this analogy needs to end right now.
The place is a mission gay dive bar. All stereotypes apply. All mission stereotypes. All gay stereotypes. All dive bar stereotypes. Definitely an adventure worth taking into San Francisco culture... -

I had a good time here on a Monday night for a friend's birthday. The atmosphere is very laid back and the drink are about average in price.
There were cheep drink specials, $1 PBR, but I could piss in a beer can for free, so I didn't partake.
The music was pretty spotty until my friend took over the juke box and put on some great music.

Review from Tom R.
San Francisco, CA
I used to come here about ten years ago with a gay female friend. When I went to "The Lex" then I was almost always the only man in the room, sometimes there might have been one or two others but that was at most. The women were very cool about me being there, I'd get some looks every now and then but for the most part the people were very welcoming. My friend that liked to go there moved away and I wasn't asked to come here any more so I didn't.
A few weeks ago I was at a festival with my beer group. After several beers one female friend told me that she thought another female friend was hot. Then later the other one told me she was into it so I suggested she make her move. It turns out that I can add "great wing man for drunk bi girls" to my resume. The festival ended and the three of us went to The Lex for a few more drinks, the girls were into each other but I sensed they didn't want me to leave them on their own just yet.
Oh my has The Lex changed over the years! I don't know if it was a special event but there was at least a couple dozen guys there. If that's the new norm I don't know if you can even call it a lesbian bar any more.
After a couple of beers I decided to leave the girls to their new friendship. One of them asked me to stay ;-O but I got my fill of that kind of thing back in my Rock Star days.Listed in: How did I get the ROTD?
