Sink a cocktail in one of London's finest LGBTQ+ bars and pubs and you'll be drinking in more than just some watered down booze: these spots are LGBTQ+ landmarks in their own right, places where you can uncover community, kinship, and drag-fuelled mayhem. Beats billiards in your local.
Once upon a time, having a gay old time in London meant hotfooting it straight to Soho. But now, the city's lgbtq+ centre of gravity has shifted east, with edgier spots pulling crowds to Dalston when evening falls, while some of the city's most storied LGBTQ+ venues have taken up residence in Vauxhall. So whether you're after a drag brunch, a burlesque show or just a quiet pint, here's a comprehensive list of the capital's gay and queer-friendly bars and pubs, from the legendary G-A-Y to lesbian-centric She Soho to sing-yer-heart-out special The Karaoke Hole.
RECOMMENDED: Keep the party going at London's best LGBTQ+ clubs.
