G-A-Y Bar

(407 Ratings)
Poppy pre-club video bar

Three floors of lively and camp-sympathetic atmosphere, with a decidedly up-and-coming (read young) crowd meeting up before heading out to the clubs, most probably G-A-Y Late or Heaven — the main arena for the G-A-Y enterprise [see entries]. Opened 2002. Happy Hour cheap drinks Friday  5pm–8pm. Located two doors down from restaurant Balans Soho No. 34 [see entry] and diagonally opposite lesbian bar She Soho [see entry]. Basement area no longer plays host to nightly lesbian-dominated Girls Go Down.

A bit pretentious

Kind of over priced. Young crowd. A bit loud, but fun with friends.

Video bar with young crowd

Busy most nights. This is a relatively new place by the owners of the famous GAY club night. It attracts a mostly young crowd. Has several bars on different levels and plays music videos, which is good if you're on your own.
