Moby Dick
Established in 1977, Moby Dick is one of the oldest gay bars in the Castro and an integral part of LGBTQ+ community history. Moby Dick is a place to meet up with old friends and meet new ones. The long wooden bar and boat deck benching are relaxed and inviting. We offer live drag shows, music videos throughout, pool table, pinball, and a glowing 250-gallon salt-water tank, a true customer favorite.
