Description
A predominantly lesbian bar in Deep Ellum has everyone talking. Open in winter 2012, Eden Lounge is as swanky as it sounds, but with warm and inviting management. Ginda Bayliss, a rotund, middle-aged lesbian who used to be in the Navy, has become a staple in the community from managing a handful of gay and lesbian bars in Dallas over the past 30 years, and is now on board with Eden Lounge. If it's a slow night, no one is getting out of the bar without a bear hug from Ginda. Black leather couches and accompanying tables line the walls of the sleek bar and face a dance floor lit up by overhanging neon lights. A rooftop patio offers one of the best views of the downtown skyline.
