About this place Cathedral Station

Cathedral Station, at 1222 Washington Street in Boston, is a sports bar that happens to be gay-friendly. Expect cocktails and pub food in a laid-back setting.

The space has a bit of history: it used to be Red Fez, a Middle Eastern restaurant. And while it’s not in Boston’s main gay neighborhood, it’s a good option for LGBTQ+ people who want a welcoming bar that’s not part of the usual downtown scene.

Boston’s queer community has plenty of gay bars, but most are concentrated elsewhere. This place pulls in people who prefer something more low-key than the dance clubs. The menu leans into pub grub, and the cocktail list is strong enough if you want a drink and a bite without committing to a full-on nightclub.

Think of Cathedral Station as a stop on a wider bar crawl. It’s an easygoing spot to catch a game, talk to some locals, and see how LGBTQ+ life plays out beyond the established gay district.
