About this place Retro Bar

Retro Bar, a gay bar in London's West End, is one of the neighborhood's most laid-back spots for LGBTQ+ visitors and locals. You'll find it on George Court, just a short walk from Charing Cross Underground station.

They pack the week with things to do: DJ sets, speed dating, trivia, comedy shows. It means you’ll probably find something different going on each time you stop by, whether you want to dance, meet people, or just laugh for an hour.

It's a social hub for London’s queer community, but it doesn't feel exclusive. That "friendly" vibe they go for? It sticks. The area around it, of course, has plenty of other gay bars, cafes, and shops if you want to make a night of it.

I stumbled upon this little bar tucked away in an alley. The retro decor and colorful lights create a fantastic atmosphere. The upstairs is quiet and perfect for chatting, and the staff are incredibly friendly. Highly recommended!

My girlfriend took me to Retro on our second date, and now 1.5 years later it's still one of our favourite places to go! Lovely little bar, very warm and welcoming staff members, vibes are amazing from both staff and patrons. I love coming here, it feels incredibly safe, cheerful, and snug inside. The one major downside is that it can sometimes difficult to grab a seat, but once I have that I'm in heaven. Drinks are Central London priced.
