Venue Detail
The Mining Company
About this venue
TMC: The Mining Company is Cedar Springs after dark: a low-lit, no-cover LGBTQ+ room where the early afternoon drink can slide into DJs, drag, pup night or a late dance floor without changing addresses. It is compact, hot-running and unapologetically social—the kind of Oak Lawn stop where the plan often gets made at the bar.
Practical details
Address: 3903 Cedar Springs Road, Dallas, Texas 75219, United States
Hours: Daily 14:00-02:00; 21+. No regular cover. Check Instagram for the night's programme.

Venue intelligence
Know before you go
Typical queue
TMC does not charge a regular cover, but the compact room can bunch up during weekend drag, themed nights and the late dance rush. An afternoon or early evening arrival is easier if pool or a seat is the goal.
Best night
The venue runs daily rather than saving all its energy for Saturday: go by the current Instagram plan for drag, pup, DJ or themed nights. Sunday Funday is a different proposition from a 01:00 dance floor.
Locals vs visitors
Oak Lawn regulars, LGBTQ+ visitors, drag fans and friend groups share the room. The operator says everyone is welcome, while the late-night vibe is still distinctly queer and dance-forward.
Dress code in practice
Come as you are; there is no cover or published formal code. Casual barwear works in the afternoon, while the room naturally gets more expressive once the DJs and drag take over.
Staff inclusion
TMC explicitly identifies as an LGBTQ+ 21+ venue and says everyone is welcome. It does not publish detailed accessibility or event-boundary guidance, so contact the venue for a specific need.
