TWIST

Twist is one of Frankfurt's more modern LGBTQ+ bars, a stylish, contemporary spot with a black-and-neon interior, a good sound system and a compact dance floor, drawing a young, mixed crowd of queer folks and allies in their twenties and thirties. Fridays and Saturdays bring rotating DJs spinning pop, charts, indie, house and electro, and its calendar has featured fun events like drag-queen-hosted bingo and quiz nights alongside long-drink happy hours. Casual and easygoing, with fair drink prices and high-quality spirits, it sits in the lively Alt-Sachsenhausen bar quarter south of the Main, a little apart from the Alte Gasse gay village, and makes an easy option for a night of dancing and socializing.
