About the venue

The Star of Bethnal Green is an LGBTQIA+ pub on Bethnal Green Road that has been part of the East End scene for well over a decade. The programme leans fun rather than polished: drag bingo, karaoke rooms you can book, and queer DJ and party nights at the weekend…

“This is an amazing hidden gem! The karaoke rooms have an incredible atmosphere, and the half-price discount for birthdays in January is a fantastic deal. You can even sing Spanish songs. The pizza is delicious, the DJ's programming is phenomenal, and it's perfect for parties or birthday celebrations. I'll definitely be back!” — 伦敦向导与水疗London Guide & Spa看主页, Google
“I organised my bday celebrations with karaoke at the Star Bethnal Green. The karaoke room was fun and cosy, there was a very wide range of songs so we suited everyone's preference. We had a lot of fun!! The staff was also very kind to accommodate my friends bringing a gluten and lactose free cake for me :) thank you so much!” — Francesca Rapolla, Google
