Metro Venezia Club has run on Via Cappuccina in Mestre since 2012 as the Venice metro area's main gay sauna and recreation club, with a Finnish sauna.
TipHistoric Venice has no standing gay bar; Metro on the mainland is the scene. Five hundred metres from Mestre station, ten minutes from Piazzale Roma by tram. ANDDOS card at the door.
Trash and Chic has run as Venice's longest-standing LGBTQ pop-up since 2006, currently using the Molocinque warehouse in Marghera two or three Saturdays.
TipCheck the Facebook page for the dated calendar; the venue is Molocinque most months but the event also travels to Padova. Cab back to historic Venice is the only late option.
Caffè Florian has run under the Procuratie Nuove of Piazza San Marco since 1720, the oldest continuously operating cafe in Italy, with the resident Caffè.

Vino Vero opened on Fondamenta della Misericordia in Cannaregio in 2014 with one of the deepest natural wine lists in Italy, a tight cicchetti bar.
TipAsk for a Friulano or Soave off the natural list; the by the glass rotation is the deal. The fondamenta outside is the room past 22:00 in summer.
