About this place Gay Mart

Gay Mart is a small, long-running gay gift shop on North Halsted Street in Northalsted (Boystown), Chicago's main gay strip. It sells pride merchandise, gay kitsch, novelty gifts, cards and some adult products. It is a gay shop rather than a mainstream one, and it's the kind of place you drop into between bars on Halsted for a souvenir or a joke present. We don't have opening hours on file and the Google review count is small, so check the website or call before making a special trip.

Atmosphere there is very good, even in the afternoon. But the show is a little boring, guess it will be better at night

They have a great selection of humorous t-shirts, fun knick-knacky toys and keychains. It was great going into a store supporting the gay community! The owner was a little grumpy, but once you get past that, it's an enjoyable store.
