Sissy Bar was a gay bar in Portland, Oregon, United States. Truman Cox and Derek Palmer opened the video lounge in southeast Portland's Buckman neighborhood in June 2022, near another LGBTQ establishment named Crush Bar. Sissy Bar hosted drag shows, dance parties, and other themed events and played video montages from films and music videos by popular recording artists. The bar served Colombian cuisine, such as ajiaco, arepas, and empanadas. It closed permanently in October 2024, with owners citing the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as the reason.
