The Little Gay Pub continues to thrive as a cultural and social hub for the LGBTQ+ community, attracting notable figures like Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre with the cast of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars season 9, and actors Billy Porter, Billy Eichner, and Alan Cumming. Pelosi, who has long championed LGBTQ+ rights, made a surprise visit last year and delighted patrons with a selfie in one of the pub’s iconic bathrooms, which have become a popular attraction.

Sevilla, known for his past displays of political and social figures, has made the pub a beacon for progressive voices and causes. Despite the setback, the owners remain undeterred. “We’re proud supporters of Harris and will continue to be,” Sevilla said.

The pub’s Kamala Harris-inspired drink, aptly named “The Next President,” has also been a hit with patrons. A remade daiquiri using coconut rum, classic Hemingway ingredients, and house-cured cherries, the drink has been selling well since it was added to the menu in mid-August, with $1 from each sale going to support Harris’s campaign. “It’s more than just a gimmick,” Sevilla said. The drink will remain on the menu through Election Night.

“We can’t wait for her to visit,” Sevilla said. “The Little Gay Pub could not be prouder of her work, her story, and the example she sets for the marginalized members of our society.”
