This is an homage to Ruby, The Rider and The Witch. This project is NOT affiliated with the previous businesses and exists purely for archival purposes. May they rest in peace.

Queer Raleigh

We are made up of 3 queer owned and operated bars in downtown Raleigh, NC! Our flagship venue is Ruby Deluxe, a through and through queer bar/venue/event space on S Salisbury St. So queer we’ve got a glowing pink neon sign out front declaring “Queer Bar.” The Night Rider and The Wicked Witch are stacked atop each other over on W South St. The Night Rider is your friendly neighborhood dive boasting delicious drinks, friendly bartenders, live music and karaoke twice weekly. Our dark, vibey goth bar, The Wicked Witch, is obviously the top in this relationship.
