Faces (Sacramento) (916) 448-7798 2000 K St., near 20th and K, Sacramento, CA Saturday is a night TGs from the SGA group often congregate. Well known as a good bar for TGs. . It features 2 dance floors (one with a video wall), 3 bars & and 2 outdoor areas. The place is packed on Saturday night and the staff is friendly to everyone. However, one of the most interesting charicteristics of this place is the way everyone has a good time together. Face is the "In Place" in Sacramento with patron’s from all segments of the population (gay, straight, transgendered, etc), it is a must see experience.

The Box (415) 647-8258 715 Harrison at 3rd St.

The Cafe (415) 861-3846 2367 Market Street, San Francisco, CA This club is in the heart of the Castro district. This is a gay and lesbian club which was on the California Dreamin 98 pub crawl. The club caters to a younger crowd (20’s to early 30’s) and offers a great place to dance and drink. TG’s and drag are always welcomed.

Club Oz (Top of St. Francis Hotel) 335 Powell Street, San Francisco, CA. (415) 397-7000 A glitzy place where people who wish the 80’s never left us like to get glamorous and dance. Not a bad scene for cross-dressers, actually!

The CoCo Club 139 8th (at Minna), San Francisco, CA. (415) 626-2337 This is a club, a basement bar lesbian club, which often features live performances. They indicated that they welcome TG customers and would like to see us more often. the ambiance is sort of like someone’s party room or den with a bar.

Diva's (Formerly The Motherlode) 1081 Post Street, San Francisco, CA (415) 474-0498 Descriptions of the Motherlode have included some sleazy adjectives. However, many say it is a place to visit. It is my understanding that this is a base for some extremely passably oriental TG working girls.

En Drag (415) 775-0442 1550 California Street (at Polk), San Francisco, CA. The cities finest female impersontion review, every Friday night at our exciting new location: The very TG-Friendly Club Tango Tango.

End-Up (G-Spot) Sixth & Harrison St., San Francisco, CA (415)263-4850 Saturday night is ladies night, TG friendly, other nights are iffy, but safe. Dancing, full bar, outdoor area.

Kimos 1351 Polk St., San Francisco, CA, (415) 885-4535. Show bar. Friday nights usually has a drag show. They'll love you there. Parking is in the alley to the South or the pay parking structure one block South and across the street (Polk). It can be intimidating for newbies, but its all in the mind. Neighborhood is funky, but about as alternate lifestyle as you can get.

Litter Box at Cats Grill & Alley Club (415) 431-3332 1190 Folsom at 8th St.

N’Touch (415) 441-8413 1548 Polk Street, San Francisco, CA they welcome transgendered customers and would like to see more of them. This club is a bit small but it is in a friendly part of town. It seems designed mostly for dancing (not many tables).

Baby Judy’s (at Casanova) (415) 863-9328 527 Valencia St. (between 16th and 17th), San Francisco, CA Wednesday nights from 10 pm - 2 am. There is a DJ which plays some of the most enjoyable retro and new wave music in the city.

Club Soul (415) 647-8258 1190 Folsom (at 8th), San Francisco, CA Every Saturday night starting at 9:00pm and going until 3:00am, Club Soul offers one of the most TG friendly dancing environments in San Francisco. Club Soul features 2 dance floors. They have actively sought to have more TG patrons. There is a $10 cover charge but this venue is worth every penny.

Masquerade (415) 339-8685 375 1st Street @ Harrison, San Francisco, CA The basement floor of the Mariner’s Hall. Parking Down the same block a bit. The Maritime hall charges 5 or 6 bucks. Fee schedule: members in Exotic Dress $5, Non-Member in Exotic Dress $7, If Dressed in Goth Wear $12, Rancid Street Clothes not admitted. This is held Monthly on the Saturday closest to the full moon. Within these walls you will find all kinds of bizarrely clad clubbers. Facilitating all of the exotically dressed patrons is an excellent club layout. Check out their website at: http://www.jps.net/phantom5/mas

Piafs (415) 864-3700 Market & Gough, San Francisco, CA This club has a drag show on Thursday night. It looks like they are trying for the upscale ambiance. The show was ok. You can walk the 6 blocks to this club from The Blue Muse after the TGSF social.

Trannyshack at The Stud 399 9th St., San Francisco, CA (415) 252-7883 SoMa Leather bar features totally wild drag show on Tuesday night: Trannyshack. Music is loud, drinks cheap. A definite must-see.
