I finally got an opportunity to visit LadyLove Lounge after following the business for years on…read moreInstagram! I found an event 6/27 5-7pm DJ set "My Tribute to Adult Swim Bumps" by ThirdLion, featuring lofi hip hop including sounds from J Dilla, Madlab, Nujabes, MF DOOM, Flying Lotus, and more. Bonus was that there were happy hour specials 8pm, which is outside of their normal happy hour window! Since LadyLove is nestled in the Bishop Arts District, parking was expectedly abysmal. There was a small parking lot with valet available, although I'm not sure if it was complimentary or paid. We opted for free curbside parking at the periphery of the district, about a 5 minute walk away toward the residential area. We walked in, seated ourselves, browsed the menu, and ordered at the bar. We ordered 2 x $7 margaritas and 1 x $7 Ladylove feral fries - included in the happy hour specials! Loved the ambiance - the low lighting, the music. Loved the happy hour special. I would love to be back at some point to enjoy other listening sessions while sipping affordable drinks.

You will be waiting in line. But if you are there at 7:30, you can walk in, find a spot and vibe. I've gone solo and had a great time just with a drink and a need for good music. Certain nights draw different type of crowds, from the stoners to the r&b fans to the go-go fanatics so definitely check their website or socials to see the happenings. I live in walkable distance so I love being able to just walk there, grab a drink, and grab to go tacos on my way home. I usually go during the week and the crowd is smaller, and I also have not stayed late. Girl's gotta get her beauty sleep, after all. Xo

Came here spur of the moment on a Sunday night with some family and friends who were in town and…read morehad a great time! I first want to thank the security at the door because he was sure to enforce the rules of the establishment but he did so in such a kind manner. He wasn't aggressive or rude like most bar security workers are. This is already a rarity in itself. When you enter, the place is straightforward. Pretty small, not crowded, but there were maybe 20 of us there and each party had a comfortable amount of space for their group. There were maybe 8 different arcade games and a few pool tables, plus some TVs on two of the walls. The music is good (hip hop & rap), not too loud, and I believe there was a jukebox in case you had some special requests. What I loved most was the price point. I think I spent $13 for over 200 tokens, which allowed me to play at least 5 or 6 games. We especially had fun playing basketball and trying to reach the high score on the punching bag. This card is reloadable btw. Lastly, I only ordered a soda, but the bartender was so sweet and we had a great conversation about our love for Tokyo! I think this place is a simple good time. I would definitely go back!

I'm reaching out regarding an experience at Barcadia Dallas on Sunday night. A member of my party…read morewas denied entry specifically because he was wearing a plain white crew-neck T-shirt. I called the establishment the following day to clarify the dress-code policy and was initially told there is no dress code. When I specifically asked about white T-shirts, I was then told that white tees are prohibited on Fridays and Saturdays. I explained that our visit occurred on Sunday, and the employee stated that he mainly works weekdays and could not explain the discrepancy. I would appreciate clarification from management regarding the official dress-code policy, specifically whether white T-shirts are prohibited on Sundays, where this policy is communicated to customers, and whether it is uniformly enforced. Given the conflicting information I received, I have concerns about why we was denied entry and would appreciate a clear response."

I have not had a bad drink here, and I doubt I ever will. Seating is limited, but I usually come with 1 person so I've been able to easily snag a seat. During peak hours, don't be surprised if there is a line. This is a great date night spot or a place to catch up with a friend. The music is loud, but the playlist is always good so I'm not complaining. If you're looking for a grown and sexy bar in Dallas, then look no further.
