this party started<\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Welcome to London, the city of all-night clubs, hedonistic venues, cabaret extravaganzas, and much, much more. Even though most spots are already LGBTQ-friendly, the gay bar scene has a niche all on its own.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The gay bars in this opulent city are so fun and welcoming that people from all walks of life, with any sexual orientation, flock to the venues to dance and party the night away. You\u2019ll find laid-back scenes, themed nights, upscale clubs, and lesbian\/gay-oriented spots that will be sure to meet anyone\u2019s needs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>1. G-A-Y<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-42078 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/emmanuel-5wrxwltrctg-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"924\" height=\"616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/emmanuel-5wrxwltrctg-unsplash-scaled.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/emmanuel-5wrxwltrctg-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/emmanuel-5wrxwltrctg-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/emmanuel-5wrxwltrctg-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/emmanuel-5wrxwltrctg-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/emmanuel-5wrxwltrctg-unsplash-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/emmanuel-5wrxwltrctg-unsplash-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 924px) 100vw, 924px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ll start this foolproof list with possibly the most famous gay bar in London: <a href=\"http:\/\/g-a-y.co.uk\/\">G-A-Y<\/a> bar. The appropriately named venue is world-renowned &#8211; and for good reason. This massive spot is spread over three floors, and somehow they all remain fairly packed throughout the night. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The flow and influx of men and women never seems to cease, with the sweaty dance-floor inhabitants pulsing and moving all night long. We\u2019d recommend this for the young 20\u2019s crowd, even though you\u2019ll find that most Londoners over the age of 25 will somehow still find themselves at this famous bar. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queer pop idols are played on the speakers, with drink specials corresponding to the videos showing on the screens. For the younger lesbian crowd, there\u2019s a women\u2019s bar downstairs, slyly named Girls Go Down, which is frequented by mid 20\u2019s women who want to avoid men at all costs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Even when you think you\u2019ve had enough and the bar closes, G-A-Y Late opens up next door. A venue even more raucous than the first, this counterpart has a later license and license, blasting music, and an electric atmosphere.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>2. The Yard<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-42697 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/david-straight-vzy6o3q0eei-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"924\" height=\"520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/david-straight-vzy6o3q0eei-unsplash-scaled.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/david-straight-vzy6o3q0eei-unsplash-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/david-straight-vzy6o3q0eei-unsplash-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/david-straight-vzy6o3q0eei-unsplash-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/david-straight-vzy6o3q0eei-unsplash-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/david-straight-vzy6o3q0eei-unsplash-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/david-straight-vzy6o3q0eei-unsplash-816x459.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 924px) 100vw, 924px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next up on our list, we present <a href=\"https:\/\/yardbar.co.uk\/\">The Yard<\/a>, a more mature venue that suits an older crowd a bit more. You won\u2019t find the same blaring music and dance-party scene like you will at G-A-Y, but a different experience that provides a great night nonetheless. The decorum has wood finishing, dim lighting, and has an upstairs loft area which gives you good views to the downstairs areas, letting you pick out who to approach next on your quest to score a date for the night. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This bar is tucked away off of Rupert Street, providing a more intimate space than sprawling bars and clubs, with most of the action happening within a small courtyard. During the warmer months, this place will fill up quickly, so be sure to try and get here before happy hour to get a prime spot for people watching.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>3. She Soho<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-42734 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/jose-maria-sava-mmvtbjkg2w4-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"924\" height=\"616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/jose-maria-sava-mmvtbjkg2w4-unsplash-scaled.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/jose-maria-sava-mmvtbjkg2w4-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/jose-maria-sava-mmvtbjkg2w4-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/jose-maria-sava-mmvtbjkg2w4-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/jose-maria-sava-mmvtbjkg2w4-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/jose-maria-sava-mmvtbjkg2w4-unsplash-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/jose-maria-sava-mmvtbjkg2w4-unsplash-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 924px) 100vw, 924px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are a queer female or currently surrounded by plenty of queer females, then you\u2019re in luck. If you answered &#8220;no&#8221; to both of these questions, then you will definitely not get into this next spot.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.she-soho.com\/\">She Soho<\/a> is an exclusively-lesbian spot, with a massive basement bar\/club that will be sure to get you lost. After you pass the daunting task of getting past the intimidating bouncer, you pay the cover and descend into the foggy and dim basement. Sure, this sounds like the beginning of a horror movie, but after you pass through the multiple rooms, see the cavern-like bar in which to get drinks, and see everyone dancing and quietly talking in alcoves spread throughout the space, you\u2019ll realize this is going to be a fun night. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If dancing in what seems like an underground bunker, surrounded by (mostly) all females having a blast, then this could be the spot for you. You\u2019ll find a few men here, unknown as to whether they\u2019re accompanying a female friend or if they somehow slipped past the super-strict bouncer, but for the most part it is women just enjoying dancing and meeting some new people in a cool space. Definitely recommend checking this out if you want to dance until 3 in the morning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>4. The Glory<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-42738 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/evan-dvorkin-ncmog4xinew-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"924\" height=\"660\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/evan-dvorkin-ncmog4xinew-unsplash-scaled.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/evan-dvorkin-ncmog4xinew-unsplash-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/evan-dvorkin-ncmog4xinew-unsplash-1024x731.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/evan-dvorkin-ncmog4xinew-unsplash-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/evan-dvorkin-ncmog4xinew-unsplash-1536x1097.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/evan-dvorkin-ncmog4xinew-unsplash-2048x1463.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/evan-dvorkin-ncmog4xinew-unsplash-816x583.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 924px) 100vw, 924px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Continuing this valuable list of the best gay bars in London, we stumble upon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theglory.co\/\">The Glory<\/a>. This Haggerston spot combines the friendliness and relaxed-vibe of a pub, dance atmosphere of a club, and artsy-accents of a performance space all into one venue. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can easily drop into this spot after a long day of work, grabbing a cocktail or just a pint from the friendly bar staff. If you\u2019re in the mood to stay, or to come in later during the night, this spot has eclectic art shows and performance pieces that frequently play here. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The combination of traditional pub and forward-thinking performance space is what makes this establishment a now staple in the LGBTQ community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>5. Ku Bar &amp; Club<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-42605 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/louis-hansel-0rslb1-pstg-unsplash-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"686\" height=\"924\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/louis-hansel-0rslb1-pstg-unsplash-1-scaled.jpg 686w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/louis-hansel-0rslb1-pstg-unsplash-1-223x300.jpg 223w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/louis-hansel-0rslb1-pstg-unsplash-1-760x1024.jpg 760w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/louis-hansel-0rslb1-pstg-unsplash-1-768x1035.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/louis-hansel-0rslb1-pstg-unsplash-1-1140x1536.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/louis-hansel-0rslb1-pstg-unsplash-1-1520x2048.jpg 1520w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/louis-hansel-0rslb1-pstg-unsplash-1-816x1099.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 686px) 100vw, 686px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next on the list, another venue which combines both the pub and club vibe; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ku-bar.co.uk\/\">Ku Bar &amp; Club<\/a>. This Leicester Square spot is frequently voted one of London\u2019s best LGBTQ venues, due to the combination of a classier-vibe from the nearby G-A-Y, mixed with the \u2018anything goes\u2019 attitude that makes so many of these clubs popular. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main floor is a brightly-lit modern space, and the downstairs has a more club-like feel. This bottom floor now has its own entrance, with doors being open until 3am &#8211; EVERY day. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not many venues in London can boast this feat, so for those who are looking to pull an all-nighter, make your way here as soon as possible. Despite usually having to wait in a queue, the fresh-faced and attractive staff inside, combined with the contemporary music, great drinks, and fun atmosphere will make it all worth it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>6.

This spot is one of the most famous venues in the city, maybe just because of the infamy associated with the name. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite being passed by many clubs in terms of atmosphere and music, every Londoner or tourist should still visit this Charing Cross venue at least once, witnessing the birthplace of queer clubs.
