Deadbeats

Deadbeats is a horror-themed LGBTQ+ dive bar in Providence's West End, known for its late-night, horror-inspired drag shows and an unapologetically alternative, goth-leaning crowd. The dark, tattoo-parlor atmosphere sets it apart from the downtown club circuit, drawing a mix of queer regulars, drag performers and night owls. Expect strong drinks, themed performance nights and a come-as-you-are attitude. It rounds out Providence's dense small-city gay-bar landscape with a distinctly punk, subcultural edge.
