Sink a cocktail in one of London's finest Queer 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 find collective, kinship, and drag-fuelled mayhem. Beats billiards in your local.
Once upon a moment, having a gay antique time in London meant hotfooting it straight to Soho. But now, the city's queer centre of weight 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.

ABOUT THE GLORY …
The Glory creates one of London’s biggest, most respected, and most-talked about kingly contests LIPSYNC! Established at Bistrotheque in under a other name, this dazzling contest was created by Jonny Woo fifteen years ago.
Currently about drag performers enter the competition each year which culminates in a big cash prize Grand Final judged by celebrities. Its very simple contestants at a heat present one number they are judged on their lip-syncing, their drag look, and their overall trace. Guest judges, helped along by the cheering crowd, pluck two winners each week and they win a place in the humungous final with massive prizes. The Grand final is similar to a heat but supersized each Heat winner performs one number, and there is one winner, with two runners-up.
Recent winners: Bolly Illusion (), Rhyss Pieces (), Sue Gives A Fuck (), Rodent Decay (), Ellis D ()

A fun-loving hangout in the thick of Soho's bustling nightlife scene, Rupert Road Bar is among the most popular Gay Bars in Town. Open 7-days a week, the venue's calm, relaxing ambience makes way for something altogether more rambunctious when the sun goes down. There's fantastic happy hour deals on cocktails and champers to take advantage of between midday and 8pm, cocktails on Mondays and raucous DJ nights at the weekends.
