Comptons of Soho, click to vote:
Comptons is located in what used to be a Victorian hotel. In the 1950’s, the hotel had become a pub called ‘The Swiss Tavern’ and acquired a reputation as being a meeting place for gay men which at the time was illegal.
In 1986, the name was changed to “Comptons of Soho” and it came out in the open as being a gay bar. Over 25 years later, Compton’s is still regarded as one of the most popular gay bars in London.
The bar attracts a more mature, beer-drinking crowd than found in some of the other gay bars in Soho.

“Saturday night boozer for London's bears and "real" men. Friendly staff, decent beer and reasonable prices. Toilets can get a bit iffy as the nights progress.“
