No one does drag like Roscoe's" -- with a weekly schedule busier than most drag bars attempt: Saturday Drag Brunch, hosted by Batty Davis, runs two seatings at noon and 2pm with a $50 bottomless mimosas-and-bubbles package alongside a la carte options; Tuesday nights bring Roscoe's Drag Race, hosted by Kara Mel D'Ville and Ari Gato with Hunter Diamond (no cover, sign-ups open Monday afternoons); and Wednesday's All Star Competition pits former contestants against each other for a shot at becoming the next All Star, with judges who've included past Drag Race alum like Kahmora Hall. Food runs on its own hook: smash burgers drop to $7 Monday through Wednesday from 5 to 7pm with $3 fries alongside, and the patio opens at 3pm daily.
Most events run 21-and-up.
