Gay Goa

Hopping Frog Bar & Kitchen is an LGBTQ+-friendly bar in Anjuna, Goa, hosting regular queer parties such as Saturday Night Beats and Unfiltered, organised by local LGBTQ+ collective Queer Kinara.

Set away from Anjuna's busier nightlife areas, this woman-owned bar has been open since 2016 and attracts locals and travellers for affordable drinks, coastal-inspired food, and karaoke. There's also a pool table for more entertainment.

Saltamontes is a garden café and bar in Anjuna, North Goa, serving Spanish tapas, burgers, pizzas, all-day breakfasts and cocktails. The open-air setting doubles as a co-working space, with accommodation available for visitors staying longer.

Live music is a big part of Saltamontes, particularly its Garden Concert Series, which brings local and international musicians together for open mic nights, jam sessions and performances under the stars. The venue has also hosted LGBTQ+ parties organised by local queer collectives. It's a very bohemian venue, perfect for the queer community.
