New owner/management.. You can see the care.. Great bar.. I have been going many years.

I came, I fondled a stick or two, I played with the balls, sucked a couple down and had something humongous on my lips which was a smile, the pool table and pool sticks are adickting, the limes help the liquor go down better, cum wet your whiskers and play with some balls

Strong drinks and great drag shows. Great spot for karaoke as well

Love this place always. Support local bars specially around this time. laid-back and fun locals. Bartenders are cool too. Great place to stop by

I had a great time with my friends for her bachelorette party!! Everyone is so nice at this bar. I love the outside patio

When I tell you I had to clutch my Pearl's when the legendary Roxanne Collins name was announced...thy pearls were clutcheth! My friends were visiting from Austin. We got free VIP seating right in front of the show. The entire staff was gracious. I'd definitely go back.

My favorite bar in Houston!!

Great experience! I was kicked out during one of the drag shows by a polite guard. The bartenders were really sweet as I was being kicked out! It was a blast! I recommend this venue; Thank you boodooboo biscuits!

Love this place. Tyler is the best bartender ever. Super friendly.

"Local" bar feel, but anyone and everyone is welcome. Karaoke most days, drag shows other days. Great staff. I go here a lot; some might say too often. Lol.

Amazing crowd, amazing staff, wonderful drinks. First time going to a gay bar and first time going to any bar since before the pandemic. Great place to get into the swing of things.

Such a cute little bar I loved it! The bartender was so nice I had a lovely little evening

Thank you to Dana and Te'a for serving pure excellence tonight. Haven't been out for over a year, never met Julia but she knew my name by my second round. Truly felt like family the whole time. I missed you Barcode.

Everyone is so friendly. The drinks, oh the drinks are fantastic. Music on the jukebox is always going. It's my partner's favorite place to go. We always have fun at "BARCODE".

What a gem! Had so much fun this past Saturday evening. In the midst of all the hustle and bustle of Montrose, this was such a pleasant surprise! Service was attentive and friendly. The vibe was just what I needed after a long day of socializing. Not too crazy and no flashy bright lights. It was literally perfect.

Barcode is pretty cool. It's a small club but the people there are super nice. I love the atmosphere and karaoke nights are the best.

The vibes in here are very welcoming and the drinks are good and strong!!! It has a nice patio as well with lots of seating

I love to sing here with my Tesla team. We karaoke with my Asian mates and have so much fun. Donald says I need calm down but I can't stop. AI is the best chip on my brain. Yay for being gay!!!!

the bartender Caleb is the best! i can always count on Roxanne Collins for a great show and a great laugh❤️

Love this place the manager Larry is so nice and inviting and the bartenders are amazing . They have drag shows and karaoke and the environment is very chill.

We were reverted from our 8 day vacation from Mexico and n the first day found this place during a layover, and decided Houston was our stay for the future days, not only was the entire staff so friendly but open to new people in their city, our most favorite place to visit, made sure our last stop in Houston was also there. Jr and Steve were exceptional with their service and making us feel welcome! best stop in Houston! Check them out! The entire staff was exceptional!

The bartenders here are so nice, it’s always a safe and chill environment. The drinks are strong and cheap, the entertainers are amazing for drag performances.

Very calm and relaxed atmosphere out on the patio. Service is “top notch” and the staff is beautiful.

This is a super small cute gay bar known for the stiff drinks and amazing drag shows. Roxanne usually performs on Saturday nights and that's why I visit as much as I can, I'm a true fan. The drinks are stiff so 2 will do just fine. The shows are great and the ladies interact with the crowd. There are usually up and coming ladies that are learning to master their craft that also preform in between acts. It's an all around good time with music that caters to everyone.

It's a nice bar. The staffs are friendly and I enjoyed each time I were there.

The place and the vibe are really nice, so are the employees. The margaritas are not the best though.

Quite a good atmosphere, we had 1 guy bothering us, but I guess it depends on the moment once you are there. Good bar. OK dragshow, nothing spectacular.

How are you going to advertise a Halloween thing and have one bartender. Maybe the Asian loving owner that only loves metal should show up and help. Tyler was great fending for himself but he shouldn’t have been the only one.

Barcode has really stepped up its game over the last few years. They have cleaned the place up quite well, turning it into a solid neighborhood spot. It is a smaller bar, but that adds to the laid-back vibe, and the semi-covered outdoor space is a great addition if you want some fresh air. The service here is consistently good. You can expect drinks that are poured correctly and priced appropriately—no overpriced, watered-down cocktails here. It’s an ideal spot for day drinking; I highly recommend stopping by early before the evening crowd rolls in to really enjoy the atmosphere.

If you are a black traveler this isn't the best place to visit they are very rude and I felt very targeted with the staff I was told no backpacks which is understandable but then was told something else about were I could set my drinks outside after that I understood I was not welcomed

Music is good. But do yourself a favor and have your drink on a disposable cup.

Cute little bar that had an obvious community. My wife and I are from out of town and enjoyed the lights but left before Thursday karaoke due to the wobbly disco ball giving us motion sickness ^^' The drinks were also...a reason to leave. They need to use jiggers cause those overpours are bound to be hurting their revenue.

Micheal is an awesome bartender, great customer service! Eddie is a clown of a "Security guard" who told our table of 4 to be quiet at 3pm on Saturday afternoon, there were a total of 8 people in the bar including us. This place is such a crapshoot!

I was sitting at the bar. The Bartender asked me to move for another customer to access the credit card screen. While the customer could easily have gone around to it, I obliged. I then went to go back but the bartender told a customer (friend) to remove my chair. A few custoners come in and he wanted to serve them vs. letting another bartender get them so he enticed them to him. I later told him I didn't appreciate what hecdid to me. He first denied it but them admitted he had his friend move my chair to make room for others. He apologized but after lying it hit me wrong. I believe my age (50s) was why he dismissed me. I got my next drinks from the bartender he stole customers from.

I'm extremely disappointed in Barcode's policy of not allowing dogs inside or on their patio. As a dog owner, I was looking forward to enjoying a drink with my furry friend by my side. The bar itself is nice, and I have been here so many times but the no-dogs policy is a major turn-off. It's surprising that a gay bar wouldn't be more pet-friendly, considering how many dog owners live in the area. We went to JRS and Eagles with my dog with out any trouble. The bartender wasn't nice about it. He just yell out "you can't be here with a dog". Didn't even took the time to just calmly explain their no dog policy. Unless they reconsider their policy, I won't be back.

Bartenders Jake and Julia are very agressive, rude, and borderline predatory about tips... Paid Jake with a card and he asked me after every drink did I tip him (it was an open tab you tip when you close it) paid Julia with cash and she was very snarky about the tip after each drink... I tip big, and I tip Everytime, but not when I'm being bullied about it

Friend orders 2 drinks it's $21 I order the next round same drinks $32 why is it more expensive for me I didn't tip. You may get overcharged being force to pay a different price ask to see itemized bill.
