Good semi dive bar. It they neglect it just a little more it will be perfect. Good bartenders and cheap drinks. Of course happy hour in the San Antonio Gayborhood is all about cheap drinks. Usually busy even when others are not so much. Cruise all the bars if doesn't suit ya mood, all our bars have a unique find. Find the one that fits the mood of the day or capture a little bit of several of them. read more

Great service. Good music. Been here multiple times. Jason is always a pleasure and fantastic bartender

Im not used to the bar scene, but if this is the standard then it must be fun! Massive place with multiple dance floors, gambling, about 5 bars, karaoke, drag shows and a outdoor eating area. This ain't a box in the middle of the ghetto, its a establishment...in the middle of the ghetto. Bathrooms can be gnarly at times, staff is great and friendly and lastly the vibe is truly fun with a great variety of men women and all sexualities. Great place, theirs some drama about the owner being a MAGA cultist, which is very hard to swallow to support such a crappy mindset. But if you can ignore that very glaring issue, its a good time read more

Really dumpy and unsanitary. I like a dive bar but this place is so dirty and poorly maintained. Nothing charming about this space.

I came in the other night and kept my tab open. When I went to settle up, they handed me someone else's card. Since it was the same color, I didn't think to check the details and ended up using another patron's card and money to pay my tab. The next day, when I returned to retrieve my card, I was told they didn't have it. I spoke with the manager over the phone, and he couldn't have cared less. They didn't even want my name or number so I could make things right with the other guy. It's honestly infuriating how careless and greedy these people are--thieves and fraudsters without a shred of morality. Whatever you do, don't trust them with your money. read more

You have to be very careful visiting this place. A number of people have reported being roofied, beaten up and having item on them like jewelry being stolen. When reported to the police, they laugh it off because of the kind of place it happened and they don't take your wallets. But the poor victims wake up black and blue. read more

I decided to give Pegasus another try and I'll rescind my previous review...a little. While I can't discount my previous experiences, on a not so busy night the single bartender is doing a nice job of covering everyone and meet customers in a friendly way. This is what a neighborhood bar is supposed to be. read more

I am from California and visit here and went there and meet some nice friendly people. I will go there again. read more

See all

This used to be my ol' stomping ground--a safe haven to escape my internalized homophobia and distract myself from a meager existence. Pegasus karaoke was the one place in the world I felt seen. But then, it happened. KENNY. (I think that's his name). He attends karaoke at Pegasus nightly and somehow manages to get up on stage for every other song. At this point, I'm fully convinced it's rigged. Either Kenny's a millennial millionaire slipping cash under the table to the DJ, or the DJ has a crush on him (not sure why). Either way, Peg used to be my group's go-to karaoke destination and now the mere thought of Kenny's Kacey Musgrave cover chills me to my core. Open up the list to your loyal regulars and #CANCELKENNY read more

Pegasus is SO MUCH FUN!! It's just SO SAD that it's so gross to step foot anywhere wearing sandals Music is amazing! I had so much fun dancing all night long!!! But had to leave early because the restroom floors were just filthy. They were wet, muddy, covered in toilet paper. Absolutely horrible. A good mopping would do such wonders in that bar. Hopefully next time is a better experience read more

04/14/18 Well, only one Yelper showed up for my UYE. Thanks, Lou. It was a great night. All the really good singers that I've known for between 5-10 years were there: Damien, George, Michael and a new person, Jesse. Jesse rocked Selena. Even Eric from Houston was visiting and we performed our duet 'Cruisin'. We got a great response, so I guess we didn't suck. As usual, the place doesn't start to get crowded until about 11, so you can probably be in the rotation to sing a couple of songs before all the others start signing up. Bartenders on the patio are sometimes hit and miss. I sometimes wonder if that's where the newbies cut their teeth. I found myself going inside to get my drinks from Simon, another person I've known for years. I did notice that the number of cabs coming by has really decreased. I don't have an Uber account (yet), and it was a while before a cab happened by. Anyway, it was a fun night. read more

I had a great time! Tony, the bartender, was friendly and drinks were strong, cheap, and served quickly.

Unsanitary and disgusting! Sewage on the floors, holes in the walls, the stench of sewage in the air. Exposed wiring in the ceilings. We felt very unsafe in this place. GHETTO!! The gay community deserves better than this. The owners need to do better. Will not be returning to this place. Consumers beware!! read more

Jonathan was a stellar bartender and catered to our eccentric lil preferences "chamoy" on the rim not just in the glass. The stars are for him. Lady friendly bathroom smelled like a portapotty and two men walked in and left their empty drug bag in the sink when they walked out. -2 stars ‍ The KJ hostess was ok for the first song but got jelly and skipped us 3x until we complained about it and then miraculously we were next! This is where she used her audio manipulating skills to make the mic sound like your singing in a tin can. So unprofessional. Our party was disgusted and we promptly left. - 2 stars I haven't been here in a long while and the area changed a lot. I hope the environment improves. read more

Kina ok Not 100% all that Drink price are not reasonable Restrooms smell If those where not an issue I would say 5*. I give a 4 for the effort. read more

The bartenders inside the first bar as you come in are so rude and catty ugh ! I would not recommend anyone come here. I remember it was a really nice place to go a while back, but now it's horrible!! it has a very uptight atmosphere. I would recommend Knockout bar!! The staff there is very friendly and welcoming! read more

Have been coming here for years, but will never come back. A Pegasus worker offered us two barstools to sit at to watch the drag show. All the sudden another worker, maybe a manager but didn't act like it, comes out and said "we can't sit there because it is in front of VIP" ... We said someone else who worked for him offered us these seats, didn't care. All this happening while the ONLY person sitting in VIP said to me "move or I will f*** you up" - This ONE person drinking water sitting in VIP not even tipping the queens who paid for his cheap a** obstructed view was worth more than a frequent customer. Absolutely ridiculous business sense. What a joke of a business, after years being here will never be back. read more

The outside DJ is rude & will not play songs requested unless you give her $5 or an order of hot wings apparently. Ma'am put down the food and do your job. It ain't that hard! read more

Pegasus - Gay Bars Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Great service great place to go and not have to worry about anything that's happening or been happening great music as well will always choose Pegasus over any other lgbtqia+ bars read more

I love Peg! It has been run successfully for years by the venerable Mauro Garza. I have accepted the change in management and so has the staff. The transition has been tumultuous but successful. The only problem is the owner trying to bartend when his abilities are lacking... here's a picture. He tried to fight me after I took this picture. read more

Pegasus - The worst bartender at Pegasus - Gay Bars Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Yay! I'm a fan. At least that is what Yelp.com says, but no really I actually really like this place. To start the place is 21 and up meaning the kiddies can't get in which is great. As soon as you get past the bouncer to the right there is a taco stand for all the drunk asses who need a bite to eat. The best way to describe the bar is that it is divided into three sections with different types of music. There's the patio right next to the entrance with etc type of music, there is the main bar where they have chill music throughout the night and a stage for karaoke, and then there is a third section where they play all that ratchet ghetto shit with the occasional Selena song. And no, I don't mean Selena Gomez. Ew. We're talking authentic Latin flavor Selena. It can be a bit difficult to get a drink in the ratchet section because of the amount of ratchetness congregating there so I recommend you go to the karaoke side of the bar, get your drink, and go back to Inglewood after. The bathroom situation is a bit meh. Not the cleanest environment but it is a bar so don't expect much. Two bathrooms of course, I don't think they are gender assigned. There are no stalls and there is a toilet in the corner where you can do your thing in front of everyone, reminds me of county jail tbh, you know, like in the movies where you take a deuce in front of all your brothers. Mmhmm! I always hear from lesbians about how there are not very many 'lezi' bars and most of the LGBT clubs cater to the 'G'. Well ladies, come thru because there are a ton of lesbians here. A little bit of everything actually. What I really mean to say is all are welcome here wether you're gay, straight, les, trans.. it's a spot worth checking out. read more

Horrible place!!! This is the worst place I've been to in my life. I'll never come back to this place again. The music sucks, the staff is very rude, and it's always empty. I also found a piece of a dirty nail in my beer. I complained to the staff and the security said I put the thing in my own beer. They threw me and my party out because of this. I requested to speak with a manager and they didn't care. They put hands on my partner and forced us out for complaining. The place should go out of business. Just horrible. read more

I went here with some of my LGBTQ friends and it was a lot of fun to do karaoke! People were very encouraging when others sang. There's a lot of rooms and different areas to hang out at as well as several bars so you don't have to wait too long to get a drink. The only thing I wish was that there was more than just one individual womens bathroom because there is always a long line. Though I suppose it's fair since it's a gay club and the majority of people seemed to be men when I was there. Very open-minded and welcoming place which I love! read more

Bartenders are amazing! All my drag queens I love all the shows you ladies host ! Keep it up!! Only complaint I have is the security you guys have. He needs to keep his hands off of people and not cuss at people for no reason. Last Friday, I was leaving and he grabs my shoulder and tried to push me out. I told him wtf is his problem and why are you touching me? He said we are closing get the fuck out. First of all I was already walking out. Owner of this location, you need to put your employee on check! Very unprofessional on his behalf. read more

This club/bar can be very fun. There are several rooms and each one has a bar. The bartender in the far back corner seemed the friendliest to me so I only purchased my drinks from him. I liked how after two drinks, I didn't have to keep telling him what I wanted. He had it memorized and it made getting my drinks faster. The music is awesome. You can't help but to dance and the music is up to date which is good. Drink prices are reasonable and made very well. I just moved to San Antonio and went here alone. It wasn't an easy crowd to make acquaintances with, but overall I enjoyed myself. I can definitely see myself returning back again. read more

Drink are not consistent between the areas. The bartenders need to learn the basics of making a drink. One bar was 1/4 liquor and rest mix. The over bar I ordered from, thinking it would be better since it seemed to be busier. Again drink was bad made with 3/4 liquor and splash of mix. Ambiance was good I enjoyed the fact of each section varied in style. read more

Kinda messed up that people will rate 1 star just because of the owners political party. Very tolerant of them, Overall good bar on the strip. Drag shows regularly, karaoke, and decent drink specials. Service was good and drinks were strong. Would return. read more

Pegasus is usually a fun place if I want to feel in my 20s again. I love the outdoor space and all the rooms at the location. The later you go the more packed it is so it makes it hard to move around after awhile. The bartenders are "friendly-neutral" for lack of better words. They get you what you need but that's about it. They are not rude. I love the music videos on the big screen outside and sometimes they have drag queens performing entertainment. It's not a cliquey crowd which I like but definitely more of a younger group. Drinks are a similar price to all others on Main Street but it does take a little bit to get a drink when it's crowded. I'm not opposed to going to Pegasus but it's not my first pick. Don't get me wrong; you'll probably have a good time but should know everything before going. I'll be back for sure just not as a regular. read more

I had a great time with some friends until I had to use the bathroom. My friend came with me and I used the bathroom. When I realized the bathroom stall didn't lock i asked my friend to hold the door so I could get some privacy and upon finishing there was one person waiting in line. When we left the restroom the security quickly pulled us out of the bar saying we were being disruptive and aggressive towards the other patrons of the bar and that we needed to leave. When we tried to explain to them what happened and that I only wanted a little bit of privacy to use the bathroom they said I was being aggressive and that i needed.to leave. When I explained to the manager what had happened HE said i was fine to stay and then was immediately overruled by a different manager. All I wanted to do was use the restroom with some privavcy and the securty guard LIED to the manager and refused to tell me why I was being kicked from the bar. It was very unprofessional and very unhospitable. All i wanted to do was use the restroom with some privacy and I was told to leave immediately after. WILL NOT BE RETURNING AFTER THIS EXPERIENCE read more

This place is a bunch of fun. Yes it may be rough looking and pretty dirty, but it's a great time! They have karaoke out in the back with a bar, inside they have two different rooms, one was playing country and the other was house/dance music with bars, and in the front they have amazing drag shows. Really great time. Not five stars because they could do a litter better on the upkeep and the restrooms... There is like one tiny little toilet. read more

I had fun here with out of town guests over Labor Day weekend. Drinks were good and karaoke was fun to watch. I would like to know who owns this and why they don't think that mirrors in the mens restroom is a necessity. You do realize you're running a gay bar, right? Those gorgeous men need to be FABULOUS so they can find their next Mr. Right. Duh. read more

Pegasus - A-A-Ron getting his song on. - Gay Bars Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

There's a certain stench in the air when you enter. I can't quite put my finger on it... oh yeah, puke. It smells like puke. The customers are also annoyingly pretentious and act super extra. Not sure why. Have you had a look around this dump? Music needs updating. The shady, dirty restrooms need upkeep. And Lord help you if you go on karaoke night. Not recommended! read more

Kicked my friend out for no reason. She's not overly intoxicated, not combative. I asked the bartender said not my problem. Asked the front said no idea. Police officers said it was the bartenders. Never coming back. Maybe it's because she has autism. Discrimination is my guess. Don't go here holy crap horribke people read more

The bar staff doesn't do a good job of Cleaning the glasses and they spend more time talking to their friends then servicing regime around the bar. Very dirty place. They make enough money to clean this stuff up. Bathrooms are disgusting. Things in the walls that you don't want to know about. read more

If I could give this place a negative one I would. It's absolutely disgusting ! The bathroom is sickening... mold and then smell of sewer is overpowering. It looks as if no one has cleaned this restroom in years !!!! Absolutely disgusting !!!! read more

Pegasus - Gay Bars Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

While on a visit from out of state, I went to a karaoke night on a Friday. After my subpar performance of "From This Moment," I was told I needed to close my tab and leave. When asked for a reason why, the bouncer didn't say anything concerning my conduct and I was told "you can leave or we can call the cops". Prior to being asked to leave, I was enjoying my time, but the demeanor of the employee was inappropriate, out of line and uncouth. Our whole group was completely sober and not harmful whatsoever, so this response was confusing and unnecessary. For a place with a pride flag hanging outside, our group of LGBTQ folks did not feel accepted, tolerated, or safe. read more

Bathrooms stink. Music usually isn't very good. Typical of a gay cheesy mainliner gay bar.

I went last night with my friends who came to visit San Antonio, TX and we went to the back area where they have a karaoke. Bartenders were so rude and they really don't care about clients. I was trying to get the attention from the bartender who was in front of the microphone and he was only giving me the eye. I had my card on my hand trying to get his attention and he didn't acknowledge me for over 10 minutes and he was clearly just standing there talking to the other bartender. Then I had to go to the other bartender on his side and same thing. Then when he finally was able to get me a beer I asked him to please go with my 2 friends to get their order because the other bartender keeps ignoring us,and I gave him a tip but he didn't even bother to go with them. If I were the owner of this place I wouldn't have employees who don't want to sell to clients, and treat them so rude. I felt embarrassed after telling my friends people in San Antonio, Tx it's very nice. read more

Worse place to go to. Overpriced drinks. Rude staff. No change back. Other than that, it was Ana experience within reason.

This trip is maybe the worst lgbt friendly place I have ever been. The music is old. It's like a step into the 90's here.
