Tool Shed

Tool Shed is the go-to leather-and-Levi venue in the Palm Springs gay bar lineup and a longtime favorite for bears, leather guys, and anyone who likes a more old-school cruising-bar feel. It’s outside the main Arenas cluster, but absolutely worth the detour if you want a different slice of Palm Springs gay nightlife. The crowd is more niche, more community-based, and more relaxed about being exactly what it is. If leather culture, theme nights, and a less polished but more characterful atmosphere are your thing, Tool Shed is essential.
