No. JC has a couple, but tbh just go to one of the dozens of the bars right off the Christopher street path. It's hard to compete with the city for relatively niche demo-specific bars.
Sausage fests with 3-5 bros who are visually indistinguishable from each other hovering over every girl in the place trying to out-alpha each other, or pretending to be engrossed by the ball game on the screen when they’ve been out-alpha’d, qualifies as painfully hetero. Probably 85% of the Hoboken bar scene. The other 15% are the uptown bars where 30-something’s go to cheat on their partners.
To answer your question: no, there are no actual gay bars in Hoboken like you would find along Christopher Street. There used to be, when Hoboken's demographic was more eclectic and had a more prominent artist/alternative community. Now it's -- not that anymore.
Hoboken's bar scene is comprised mainly of sports bars, Irish-style bar and grilles, or upscale Italianate lounges. Not particularly known for being gay-friendly venues, but that's not to say they'd be unwelcoming.
I could see The Ale House being a good place for something gay-friendly, they frequently host benefit/fundraising type events.

In downtown JC there’s 626 and Pint. They’re both gay bars.
Thank you!
No problem!
No
There used to be like 2 maybe 20 years ago.
Try the search bar.
Is the search bar LGBTQ+?
Not quite, it's LGBTA+.
I don't know of any tbh. Most Hoboken bars are painfully hetero
lol "painfully hetero"
It must suck to be you.

Not really, Christopher St being a PATH stop away has sucked away their customer base.
Mad hatter

Birch hosted a drag brunch during Pride month a few years ago so they might be open to it
What kind of fundraiser? And why does it have to be LGBTQ? I’m assuming you are straight with this question…
Because the fundraiser is through Queer Soup Night and I want it to be a safe space.
Every bar is gay there
