My favorite bar in Queens! I especially love going on Wednesdays for Gayme Night hosted by Avant Garbage with Fabrizio behind the bar! Excellent prices and an amazing atmosphere! read more

Great local bar! Wish I lived closer to go more often! Bar staff very friendly and felt comfortable being myself.

Just a great neighborhood dive bar. Nothing fancy and a bit shabby, but it's warm and comfortable and basically no drama!

The bar had an amazing music playlist, great vibe, lights, and crowd. However, I didn't have a great experience with one of the bartenders (clean-shaven guy). He had an attitude when taking my order in front of my date, which really killed the mood. 11/8 read more

The bartenders at Albatross Bar are the real deal--especially Shane. A queer punk soul behind the bar who doesn't just pour drinks but actually listens and connects with people. Always respectful, always creating a welcoming vibe, and somehow makes you feel like you've been part of the community forever. One of the reasons Albatross feels like home in Astoria. read more

Today, 11/13... I ordered an old fashion. Yes... I know but Michael makes a good one. And I've had his before... But he asked me if I had a nut allergy and I have severe Walnut allergy.... The bitters has walnuts... he saved my life. I'm so thankful for the considerate and most caring bartenders here. Xoxo read more

Albatross Bar - Michael and Fred - Karaoke Near Me - Astoria, New York

I had such an amazing time with Candy Samples at the mic! Friendly service and it wasn't overcrowded! I'll definitely be going back.

Best gay bar in NYC! Come for Bingo and Retro Rewind on Sundays. Amazing shows. Karaoke on Fridays is a must.

Super fun, local inclusive bar that has quickly become a regular spot to visit. Bartenders are friendly and welcoming. Great music and late night drink specials. read more

Crap, I hate when I take too long to write a review and forget folks' names. I stopped by Albatross for a Eurovision party and had a great time. The bartenders (whose names I cannot recall) were awesome and definitely kept the party going after the end of the contest. While I visited for a specific viewing party, overall, I've had nice experiences at Albatross Bar. The bar seems like a place where local LGBT+ folks that live in Astoria hang out. read more

This is our favorite neighborhood gay bar. Always fun and we love the Queens in Queens! Highly recommend. read more

Michael and Pedro are the best bartenders in the city. Love coming here for drag race

First time here and had a blast. Great show and Belize serves the best cocktails! I'll definitely be back :)

I was visiting some friends in queens, in from Iowa. Skip was welcoming the second I walked in the door. He made sure I was comfortable and happy and ensured I had the best night in queens! I think anyone of any background should come and enjoy an albatross drink and get lucky if skip is working! read more

Albatross has some okay entertainment, but sneak in as much alcohol as you possibly can. It just cost me SIXTEEN FUCKING DOLLARS, $16 fucking dollars for a **well** whiskey ginger. When I doubled checked the price, the bartender acted like it was the steal of the century. You can buy a liter of whiskey and a two liter of ginger for that price and pre-game. They also pour like every ounce of liquor is coming out of their paycheck. It's very homophobic for a gay bar to charge that much for weak ass drinks. Tragic. Despite that, the entertaintment is good. However, I strongly recommend you show up drunk. read more

Albatross Bar - Unfinished tap - Karaoke Near Me - Astoria, New York

Been coming here for a few years now. It's a great gay bar not terribly far from the Astoria stop or the M60 bus. It's not huge, but it has a great neighborhood feel. I've always had a good experience with the bartenders. They have a pool table that is covered up for the really busy times, but I have played games here when it's more relaxed and really had a good time. The beer selection is pretty limited, but it goes beyond the typical mass-produced draughts. If you're in the neighborhood and looking for a great, low-key gay bar, definitely stop in. read more

They have been so safe here at the Albatross. Following all the city and state requirements. This has been a home to me for years and I highly recommend coming to Albatross for some drinks and snacks. Filup is amazing as usual. Plus the drag bingo shows are starting up again. A great place to have a drink. read more

Pedro and Michael were awesome tonight! Albatross is our go to local bar, with great drag shows, the best drag bingo and and all round great bar! read more

Fantastic local spot for the LGBT+ Community in NW Queens. Great drinks, sweet bartenders, and great outdoor seating for these times .

Nice low key gay bar. I am straight and came in on accident but it was still perfectly fine/nice. Cheap beer in a divey setting. There is a decent amount of space in the bar along with a jukebox and a comfy couch. read more

Sweet bartenders and chill crowd. I was there earlier in the night though. So I'm not sure how crazy it gets later on. I felt really comfortable just slowly sipping drinks and catching up with old friends. I would definitely come back whenever I'm in the area. Heads up: Free shot of the day with a purchase with Yelp check in! (We were allowed to pick a liquor of choice for the shot since the bartender hadn't created the daily shot yet.) read more

This bar kills it! Love the bartenders, performers, and patrons. Enright gets it right every time 1000000%. Also, Come for Wednesday Game Nights with Avan T. Garbage & Señor Skip LaRussa! read more
