As has been the case with lesbian bars across the United States, Slammers has needed to evolve to adapt to the changing LGBTQ+ nightlife scene.[2][5] While it began as a women's bar, early on it drew a business lunch crowd.[6]

Slammie's on High

In 2022, the owners of Slammers opened Slammie's on High, near the Ohio State campus,[7] which is also an LGBTQ+ friendly space but serves different food to the original location.[8] It opened in March 2023.[9]
