Drake's Bar & Club

About this place Drake's Bar & Club

Drake's on Zborovská in Smíchov is Prague's most important leather and fetish venue — the bar and club that provides the leather community with a proper home in a city that, despite its progressive credentials, did not always have adequate infrastructure for this part of the scene. The venue operates a bar, a dancefloor, and a darkroom across multiple levels, with the kind of industrial and leather-appropriate décor that signals to the community what kind of space this is from the moment of arrival. Regular themed events include leather nights, fetish parties, bear events, and the full calendar of sub-cultural programming that the leather community expects. Drake's draws a substantial Western European leather tourist contingent — German, Austrian, Dutch, British — alongside its Czech regulars, making it one of the more internationally connected venues in Prague's scene. The Smíchov location is across the river from the Old Town, accessible by tram from the Vinohrady area and from the city centre. Dress code applies on key nights.
