One of the funnest shows we have been to and one of the sweeties walked us to our vehicle as well! Great experience and they took it up a notch looking out for our safety. Must see...DARCELLE is the cutest.

My husband and I wanted a new kind of date night, and I have to say we found it. Comedy, drag, singing,dancing, good drinks we had a blast laughed the whole time. Call ahead to reserve your spots and be there early seating is first come first serve. See you next year Darcelle XV.

The show was great but we loved the Uncles at the front door who were so welcoming and gave us the best tips on what to do with our weekend in PDX. Highly recommend if you’re in the area, such a great night and they do brunch too!

Great show! It was nice to get out of the house for an evening.

Took my friend for her bachelorette party. So fun! The girls do a great show. Its weird because I wanted to tip them but they never came out in the crowd and I felt awkward interrupting their show... Regardless, the costumes are beautiful, the acts hilarious, and the people are friendly. A must see!

Love Darcelle XV Showplace. Heading there tonight for New Years and to see the lovely Poison Waters and all of the fabulous show girls and the oldest working drag queen herself Darcelle.

Great show. Good drinks. Make a reservation if you are going with a group. We did not make a reservation but they still had seats available and they acomodated us.

That was the most fun Ive had in a long time. Highly recommend! It was amazing that Darcelle greets everyone as they come in. Plus, that was the best burger I think Ive ever had!

Went Friday night for my 60 birthday Best birthday in a long time.Had a great time Thanks Ladies

Love love️

Great place to laugh and have a fun evening

Went for the first time last week for a bachelorette party. The show was fun and entertainers were funny. The only negatives is that the seating is so tight that you cant move. There are little tables between every 2 chairs and they make it hard to sit comfortably. Also the door staff was very stand offish. The guy taking payment was annoyed when the first person in our party didnt pay for everyone. Then huffed when a couple people used a credit card.

Went to Darcelles last weekend for my 40th birthday! My friends and I had a blast it was such a great time went to the 10:30 show Friday night stayed for the after show with the men so much fun. The staff at this place was unbelievably amazing. Thanks for making my 40th birthday weekend amazing.we ended up back Saturday night as well

I went there with my daughters, their besties and their besties moms. I was not sure what I signed up for but was willing to explore. I am so glad that I did. It was fun and the songs were kinda my era so even just sitting there waiting for the show was very pleasant. Darcelle and the gangs were amazing. It is in my books as one of the best memories. Fun and non pretentious. It shows me that when you put your hear in to doing everything even the simplest setting can bring the most joyful moments. One thing that I was not aware that i will take back with me after the show is the admiration of Darcelle and her staffs of their hard Work and their dignity of loving themselves and what they do. Thank you so much for one of the best night in my memories book. Love you all

We enjoyed our time here, this was the best live DragQueen show we have seen.It was organized and rehearsed, there werent a bunch of drugged out drunk want a be Queens around.These ladies were classy, older mature seemed wiser.I enjoy life and people who embrace who they are, these ladies take pride in their performances and in who they are off stage.We were blessed to end up at a bar where the ladies ended up at after the show and the ladies were welcoming and kind, friend and again not drugged out over acting the ladies were just ladies out having a good time.I will return to this show to share with friends and family.Funny, entertaining and welcoming.Food isnt great, but the drinks are.

I celebrated my 21st birthday with my family and friends here. Amazing and beautiful queens. I had a blast and will be back for sure

Delicious drinks, amazing show, and gorgeous performers. Im in love!

Went for my bachelorette party at the late showing (10:30) on a Saturday. We had a reservation and showed up at 10 to get in line. We got inside and seated and waited for the show to start but the show didn’t actually start until 11:15! It was definitely worth the wait though because the performers were all great and poison waters was hilarious! Our waitress was super friendly, the service was fast and the drinks were STRONG! Some of the male strippers were underwhelming in both sex appeal and dance moves unfortunately. Overall great experience and I’m glad I went!

Wow! Love this place. Cheap drinks, cheap food, and lots of fun!

Its a very friendly place,where the transwomen sing lovely&are all so very cute.

My girlfriends and I had the best time here for a 30th birthday party!

Went for my bachelorette party and it was ok. Darcelle was extremely rude to me on stage, though she probably thought she was being funny. The waitress was rude and kept forgetting we had drinks. The stage fell apart in the beginning of the show. They cancelled the strip show that night, which was a huge bummer. The queens were absolutely fabulous!! I just wish they would update some of the songs they dance too! It was an okay experience.

3 generations of my family have been able to enjoy the show! Darcelle XV has a big heart and a fabulous sense of humor. Anyone who is able to go, should! So much fun!!!

Dont miss it. Low brow, high class they rock. You wont find a more entertaining show any where. Take your grumpy mother-in-law itll loosen her titters.And the costumes are devine

By far the greatest place I have ever been in my 30 years!!! I am definitely going back with a few new friends soon!!!! I cant believe how awesome it was!!!!

What a great time!!!We missed Darcelle but the show was still fabulous. Girls are superb entertainers, I laughed hard and applauded harder.Be prepared to drink, cheer, laugh and have a gay time.

Amazing atmosphere and entertainers! 10/10 would swing on Leo until dawn.

An interesting hub of LGBTIQQAA humans with a stage that has potential. Also, if you think youve had strong drinks, try one here.

Such a fun night! Darcelle is absolutely amazing! Went here for a bachelorette party and it was the best one Ive been to. Would highly recommend

Essential Portland experience. Even if drag isn’t your scene, Darcelle’s is a blast and a guaranteed good time. Plus, it’s home of the oldest performing drag queen!

Always a Tony the Tiger Grrrrreat time. Fantastic show as well as amazing service.

Great show, generous cocktails. 4 stars due to tight seating. Would be nice if they updated audience comfort which helps encourage higher tipping.

Best night, great show and strong drinks

It was amazing !! Had so much fun !! Most likely going there again !! Waitress were super friendly, drag queens were on point !! I had a blast here and would recommend it to anyone !!

This place is a place to go if your visiting or a native Portland resident. Fun, inviting staff and fun atmosphere. Expensive drinks but worth the expense, they are quick to serve. Fun times after evening show.

These guys really know how to put on a show.. It was so worth the 20.00 cover charge. I cant wait to go again

Darcelle IV the best ever. Took me years to get my husband to take me (on vacation) even though he has been third countless times when he lived in Portland. The price is extremely reasonable. Darcelle is still bringing down the house in his 80s. A true performer. A hell of a businessman. I will bring the book to get autographed next time. Those who say its cramped. Do you know how much space cost in Downtown Portland? It is cozy.

Okay didnt know Darcelle was in the Guinness book for oldest drag queen, was also expecting a few more younger drag artists, but had the best time. Great place for a party!

Had advance tickets for a 6 pm show and showed up right at 6. We were turned away and told “you have to show up on time for the tickets to work.” That’s weird, because we were on time and btw, that’s not how real tickets work. This place is a joke!

Went for a batchelorette party. I have had this much fun in ages. Simply fabulous! Cant wait to go back.

Its fine

Such a fun time! I highly recommend going here for a special occasion, Darcelle is hilarious, its hard to believe shes been doing her act for so long. Gotta love Poison Waters too, shes my favorite!

OMG! I have not had so much fun, or laughed so hard in a l o n g time. What a hoot. The women in the show are so beautiful and believable in some of the numbers you forget theyre not. (women). Every one of the cast members were uniquely talented and each was essential the creation of a fabulously entertaining show. Darcelle XV is absolutely one of a kind!

Darcelle was funny and incredible. All the other Acts were hilarious and beautiful. The drinks are dirty. 10/10 would go again

Loved it! Yasss hunny the Lady gaga act was my favorite!! Drinks are spendy but that is ok for the experience. $20 entry, reservations encouraged.

Darcelle really is amazing! To put on a show like this for over 50 years. We went as a couple and it made for a fun evening. Different from our usual outings. The hair and makeup is very professional. It was a fun and relaxed evening and I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a fun evening out in Portland. On a side note, they make great Pina coladas

Best place for entertainment Darcelle XV the best drag queen show in the world

We went for a bachelorette party and had a great time. Have not laughed that much in a long time. The performers were great and our server Leo was so incredibly tolerant and nice! The after hours show was...well...not for someone old like me lol.

Ive been going since I turned 21 & its always awesome. Last night a group of us went for my oldest Daughters 21st birthday! We had a blast! Reservation helped. Good drink selection & 30th anniversary glasses are cute! Sliders are tasty. Ladies were stunning! Old & new songs were sung. Darcell is the hostess with the mostest!

Dont let their reservation policy fool you. There is no holding reservation. If you have a reservation you must be there by 730 in line. By 745 they will have given your table up...

My friend brought me there with my sis, had a woderful time, second generation has visitors! Loved. Ya all!

Lots of fun. Great people.

Always a good time. Outstanding performers, delicious drinks, wonderful hospitality. A Portland classic.

Staff was extremely rude at the end of the show. We were super supportive throughout the show. We were told at the end that we were rude for whistling?! How about be glad we supported you?! Unreal!

Oh Darcelle you truly are a gem. You havent enjoyed Portland until youve gone to his show lol. Work it girl! Oh and careful of the Black Opal, that drink will seal your fate if you have too many lol

Had a great time. Bring a big group of friends for the show

Had a wonderful time. Ill definitely be back.

It was raunchy, campy, corny, hilarious and I loved every minute. I cant think of anything that could be described as being more Portland Wierd than this!

The most entertaining show Ive seen in years.

Typical west coast drag bar. Entertainment was mediocre at best, a funny joke here and there, the queens leave much to be desired as far as looks/appearance are concerned. The space is small and cramped and not very clean. Our server was very friendly as were the queens. Drinks were reasonably priced, however, BEWARE the two drink minimum! We were told by our server that we HAD to buy two drinks each. This was on top of the $15 cover charge and $5 photo that we purchased. All in all it was an ok time and killed an hour or two in the evening.

So much fun. Great place to bring your family :D

This is a staple in the gay & bachelorette party community! The queens here are hilarious, entertaining and very convincing... if you know what I mean. ;-) Theres nothing drag about this place. Show up early to get a good spots in line as the showroom is a little small and fills up fast. Plus, the queens make an appearance and will let you take pics with them fpr Facebook, Twitter, black mail, etc. Make sure you tell them what youre celebrating, theyll make your celebration even more memorable!

Portlands best. A must for visitors and livers alike.

So much fun! Went for a bachelorette party and am already planning another trip to Portland to go to another show!!!!!

The history was nice.

Alwaysa fun time!

I went here every Friday night just to laugh after a stressful day at work. Its a perfect place to hang out with friends who wants to be relaxed.

Darcelle is the Guinness World Record holder as the worlds oldest drag queen performer.

You will never be a true Portlander if youve never been to Darcelles.The show is fun, Darcelle is a hoot, and the show and drinks are a good value.

She is amazing!

High cover charge, which is alright, but the place could use some updating with all that money they are making off the cover! plus you have to imagine cover, drinks, and tipping the dancers.. Not a cheap night. But I guarantee if you let loose, youll have an amazing time.

This place is a classic and not to missed if you are in Portland!

Don’t miss Poison Waters!!

Amazing place!

So much fun!

Great show, average food.

That no lady thats Darcelle xv & company

Came here with a bachelorette party and we had a blast!
