That's one of the problems with such establishments... the feeling amongst some patrons that others are not welcome.


As for "gay" being cool... give me a break!

I've been doing the email version of biting my tongue until I saw this email


Cassius, I would be delighted to meet you at the Vauxhall Tavern any Saturday night - there may be some men in there who are drinking, watching the cabaret, dancing and possibly kissing - and that's about it


Provided you pay the fiver on the door you would be made very welcome


And in case you're worried, if you need to go to the loo there will be other guys in there peeing and then washing their hands - I appreciate that the latter of these two activities is rarely seen in the gents in a 'normal' pub - so don't be too alarmed

As a gay real ale drinker I'm sooooooo glad we've got inclusivity in all the ED pubs/bars. It's good to know that a big shiny poof can get a decent pint locally - which is one thing the 'scene' certainly doesn't allow for:)


I'm not sure any local bar/pub would want to be labelled exclusively gay - could be its death knell - but if anyone other guys out there fancy meeting up to colonise a local hostelry and terrorise any cute barmen, let me know!

Yeah, ED reminds me of Tufnell Park, both are graced by a large number of gay people and so by their sheer number,

the pubs etc are well mixed :)) funny to see geezers goosing each other at the local supermarkets!


There are a few gay bars in Soho that are open to breeders which I prefer to meet gay mates as in town you still find a lot of bigotry. Bar-code can also be fun for the curious!


The one thing that gets me about gay bars is, that with few exceptions, I come out of them with the feeling that I look like an un-groomed Neanderthal compared to the average customer :(

LOL - Yeah know that feeling too... but that is because I am a breeding slob :'(


I know that the Rye does a 'Ladies night' which is next scheduled for the 31st October, I wonder if it is worth asking the Manager (Eva) if they are also doing a "Gentlemans Night" as well... I am sure if they aren't that they can be persuaded to do one.


(note : if this has already been discused then apologies, I haven't bothered to read all the thread)

    • Agree with @Sue the Dog is awful-nice building awful food. We like The Rossendale and Watsons
    • There are so many variables. Good chefs can having bad nights, post-Brexit staff shortages, your dish might be brilliant, your friend might order something that's inedible. In the end I think the best option is just to go to the restaurant which has the best overall reviews. If all the reviews are bad then avoid, but even if all the reviews are good that's not a cast iron gaurantee. 
    • The trouble is that pub management and chefs are constantly changing, so what might be fantastic on one occasion  becomes terrible a short time later, and vice versa. Two of the worst pub lunches I've had locally were at the Dog in the village and the Plough, but both those were some time ago. We had an absolutely appalling Christmas lunch on Christmas Day at The Cherry Tree, which was also exorbitantly expensive, so unless their chef (I use the term loosely) has changed, I wouldn't advise eating there. The menu looked amazing. We thought we would treat ourselves. Never again 😭
    • If you've seen the original longer post then you'll know that you've taken that out of context. I don't charge but didn't feel I even needed to say that – you've made it sound like I do charge and that's why I deleted this part of the post saying I don't charge. When I read back what I'd written it sounded like I was defending myself against criticisms that hadn't even been made so i cut it out. And now you've made that kind of criticism anyway I should've left it in.  What do you mean "not charging people to read your reviews of their local restaurants."?  You make it sound like i'm sneaking into SE22 from somewhere else. I live here - they are reviews of my local restaurants!
