Soho's popular haunt for a mix of the well-scrubbed, the business-like and the category-resistant (with a commitment to textiles rather than leather). Large corner windows provide a good view of the Soho passersby, with plenty of outdoor space for sitting and standing (and waving to the drinking outsiders at gay neighbour the Duke of Wellington, within spitting distance). Opened in 1997, refurbished in late 2009 (and again in summer 2013, and again in April 2019). There's live drag cabaret every Thursday, and DJs give weekend nights that clubby touch, particularly with scene star Tasty Tim on Saturdays. Located seconds from so much that is gay in Soho, with Old Compton St just round the corner.

Fashionable place
This is a trendy bar with huge windows so you can see who is passing by. It attracts a youngish fashionable crowd. Lots of suits during the week.
