Vault 139 Formerly: The Vault

(265 Ratings)
Basement bollocks and cocks

Two tube stops north of Soho in an area known more for its literary past (Fitzrovia) than as a destination for sex-starved gay men, the hugely popular Vault occupies a subterranean space for stripping and wandering against a backdrop of hunks beaming down from the venue's generous endowment of porn screens.

I get what I want

I go for casual sex and I always get it. It is crowded during naked nights, it is rather easy to find someone you like. Sometimes I have more than one hook up in the same night.

Retro - but not in a good way

This place if definitely pre-stonewall. They are only after your money. Rude staff bark orders at punters knowing that in London you don't need return trade. Gaysploitation at its worst.

not bad but not so hot!

this is a true cruising bar with lot of darkrooms. The staff are not so friendly. It's impossible to take a bag with you ...if you want to take some toys, it will be possible. If you like to be naked, you cant if its not naked party! Good place for very short quick encounter only !
