Jackie O's Cocktail Club - Fort Worth, Texas

Jessie Fox

A very welcoming, sapphically inclined environment.

Inside, there's a pool table, a jukebox, lots of small tables, two bathrooms, and a good dozen TVs. They've also got some unique vending machines in the back. Everything is kept quite clean.

They go all out with their holiday decorations every month, yet they do so in a thoughtful and controlled way. The result is a super cozy atmosphere!

The outdoor patio area has a unique ambiance as well, with its turf floor, various chairs and picnic tables, and a fake palm tree. On occasion, you'll find a person preparing and selling the best authentic, homemade Korean food you've ever had.

The bartenders are always friendly, attentive, and on the ball!

Lesbians, bi girlies, and non-binary friends, this is the place for you!

Pokemon, malort and powerpuff girls This place is a dream. Super friendly staff, Sterling was a great bartender and overall I felt so at home and welcomed. It’s truly just your perfect queer dive. Anyone rating under 5 stars is someone’s grandpa who hasn’t come out of the closet just yet

Absolutely GOATED bar in Fort Worth. You do yourself a disservice not offering your time here and giving yourself a new place to frequent. In other words, it’s lit.

Place is beautiful, staff is great. Only thing I can really critique is the way the DJ handles people on Monday night karaoke. He told me they had a full queue… then proceeded to acknowledge one person who was able to request a song after. Unfortunate. 6/10

Fourth Edit: Nevermind, management still sucks, don't go here.

Third and Final Edit: The owner has taken my advice and chosen to focus on showing appreciation for the good reviews rather than trying to argue down patrons who give less than 5 stars. They've removed their petty responses to my initial reviews and changed their negative responses to other patron reviews that are less than 5 stars. I applaud the growth. I guess I really did help you make your business a little better. But don't worry, I won't even charge you.

Second Edit: The owner seems to believe I want special treatment of some kind because I dont want to give them a five star review when in reality the only person wanting special treatment is them because they seem to believe patrons owe them any type of explanation for any rating less than five stars. I think they don't understand that a review is someones personal opinion. Condescendingly demanding that patrons justify their review of your establishment does not equate to you "standing up for yourselves". If you spent as much time on your business as you have in your tacky, unprofessional responses then my review might have been five stars, or at least I might have patronized your establishment again. Your unprofessional responses speak for themselves. Please enjoy your one star review, it's well earned at this point. And if you want me to make your bar better you will have to pay me.

Edit: Sorry. My review was three stars initially, which is an average score to me because this club is average. To me this club doesn't have anything special going for it, but it's average so i gave an average score. HOWEVER, unprofessional management has made me change that score to a 1 star. Sometimes business owners shouldn't be the one to respond to reviews, especially if they don't have good social media experience. What's truly insane is that Jackie O's has many other five star reviews that they have completely ignored - they don't even offer a thank you. But for some reason the owner feels the need to respond to anything less than 5stars and argue about why they deserve 5 stars. It's weird behavior, and Jackie Os will never have my patronage again.

Original 3-star review: This is a very small club that seems to be popular enough on the weekends.

Jackie O’s is a much needed cocktail bar in the quaint, gay-triangle of South Main, Fort Worth. However, EVERYONE is welcome here and the bartenders go above and beyond to make sure that you feel like you’re family, no matter your orientation. Make sure you ask for Cass, Jackie or Ty when you come! P.S. - their espresso martinis are legendary!!!

Lovely service. Great lighting, love the drinks, MUST TRY vending machine. You can play your own tunes, has a pool table, huge mirrors, beautiful art decor. TVs.

I’ll be back!

Awesome vibes Jackie- o’s!

Joshua Wrinkle

Good location. Poor service, seem to tend to and focus on regulars. Really affects the atmosphere as the staff seem snooty and unconcerned with non-regulars. Doesn’t make me want to become a regular at all. Decent prices.
