A nautically inspired Queer Bar.
Located in the Lakeview neighborhood, we are a 21+ classic cocktail driven neighborhood bar designed for the queer community. Developed by Friends of Dorothy Bars and a sibling bar to Dorothy, we have designed Fathom to be a comfortable space to gather for a drink, some darts, a bite and so much more.
ACCESSIBILITY DETAILS
Our front door entrance is accessible and our lounge throughout is easily navigated by a wheelchair, walker or other accessible devices.
Service animals are welcome. No other pets allowed unless on the patio.
We have one ADA restroom and two additional gender neutral restrooms
In addition to barstools and booth seating, we have low level wooden seating in our main room and tiered, bench-style seating in our boat lounge

Our brilliant, nautically inspired interior design was conceived and executed by the award winning, woman owned design team Siren Betty. We are humbled to be on the roster with their other brilliant projects.
We worked with Raw Building Concepts on the beautiful construction of Siren Betty’s design vision.
The team behind Just Coast designed our logo, color palette, font choices and seagull icon.
Artist Susan Yong Williams designed our custom swimmers wallpaper, designed our fireplace shell facade and hand painted the lettering on our back bar mirrors.
