The Birdcage

First time here since changed hands. Love the decor and vibe of the bar and staff have been very friendly and helpful. Will deffo be back!

Amazing sparkly shop!!! Lovely customer service

Wain is just an absolute joy. Gave solid advice on foundation shades, and has a plethora of gorgeous costumes, heels, wigs and makeup for the drag/trans community. Highly recommend The Brighton Birdcage for all of the drag essentials. Thank you so much!

I went in for a look and to ask some questions and all I can say is WOW! Nick was so friendly and could probably tell I was nervous (understatement) but he was lovely and unbelievably helpful 😊. You are truly amazing and I will definitely be back again (most likely with more questions) but will be back.

I arrived right at closing time today and, despite that, the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. They gave me all the time I needed to try on everything I was interested in buying, without making me feel rushed at all. The products are really well made, prices are very reasonable (if not even a bit lower than average), and there’s a great range of sizes available. I’m genuinely so happy with my purchases and glad to have supported this business. Thank you guys, a presto!

Popped on in Thursday 29th Jan, as I’m new to drag and wanted some advice, Oh my word the service was second to none, could not have been more helpful. Talked me through products with an honest opinion not a hard sell. Absolutely recommend and will be back.

A hidden LGBT gem in the ultra trendy North Laine area of Brighton. I had a lovely chat with one of the owners, Nick who tells me it’s not only the go-to for makeup and wigs, but also stocks a great range of cushion, t-shirts & jewellery. Check it out on your next visit to the gayest city in the UK.

Super helpful and attentive service, great gem for all things dress up. Thank you gents

an absolute gem of a shop that is so worth the visit. I had the most gender affirming experience with the owner as they helped me navigate everything from heels to binders. Birdcage has the most amazing range of items for any form of expression 🩷🩵

I want to thank Nick for his amazing service.. Thanks for your advise and help choosing the right products. Will be back soon

Truly lovely. The drag products looked lovely, but the staff are the real gem. They helped us navigate the gender affirming items. Gave advice on how to properly and safely use the binders and packers. It felt really safe. Very inclusive from a queer perspective, the older shop many be challenging for those with limited mobility.
