About this place Dudleys

Dudley's is a gay bar on Ann Street in downtown Charleston, near the visitor centre and Upper King Street. It's one of the city's longest-running gay spots, and reviewers note kind bar and door staff, fair drink prices and a modest cover charge on busier nights. We don't hold current opening hours, so check its social pages before you go, especially early in the week. Upper King's restaurants and bars are a short walk away. Google reviews average 3.8.

We love coming here to dance and hear Michael's wicked jams. Especially when he plays his Dua Lipa compilation.
