Katie's Bar

Typical queue

Katie's Bar is generally a walk-in bar rather than a velvet-rope queue. The trade-off for arriving late is a fuller room and slower service, especially on event nights.

Best night

An advertised show, DJ or community night is the best reason to visit Katie's Bar; on ordinary nights, early evening is the easier social window.

Locals vs visitors

Katie's Bar feels local first—LGBTQ+ guests and friends, familiar faces and neighbourhood regulars. Bigger events broaden the room, but it is not built as a tourist-only stop.

Dress code in practice

Relaxed, expressive barwear works at Katie's Bar. There is no need to over-style it unless a show or themed night says otherwise.

Staff inclusion

Katie's Bar's queer identity is built into the room or programme, so LGBTQ+ guests are the intended community rather than an afterthought.
