G-A-Y Late 5 Goslett Yard, London WC2H 0EA

"Though we were allowed entry at 9pm for free on Friday night, the security checked my bag and said no liquid allowed, I told her I will drink all water n keep an empty bottle and there was a death stare. We dint like the music (our personal choice) , but we thought it might get better and we will be back later. We asked for some stamp/ bands to return and she said Security will remember your faces. LIKE WOW. We felt the entire crew at gates were not welcoming so we would definitely not return n we did not return n had fun elsewhere."

"I'm a foreigner visiting England and other nearby countries. Passing in front of "G-A-Y Bar", I decided to go in and was very well received, cheap drink! I received a wristband on the way out and was invited to go to "G-A-Y Latte". When we got there, the security guard looked at us and asked for a kind of membership card, saying it was mandatory. But not even some friends I made and entered, said they didn't have it and didn't ask for any of that. But they have European document. As we are foreigners, when presenting the passport they already created this barrier. And after that, when trying to understand if it was possible to do it "that card" online. He yelled to get out of there. Bad place. if you fit into some subjective profile of security, then go in otherwise no! And don't try to understand why, because you will be humiliated."

"Let me tell you a story about my g.a.y late experience.My ex bf used to worked there for years until he passed away at a young age and I left the country because it hurt being in London without him and couldn't be in any g.a.y bar without thinking of him. Tonight I went with my ex bf's best friend there for a drink for good old time sake. I'm mixed race and I'm used to racism from both black and white cause I don't fit in their category.i usually don't care and move on but this time my heart broke. I was inside and having a drink until I wanted to use toilet. I went to toilet, and the female black attendant was chatting to someone else, so I walked forwards and started to look for a cubicle. They were busy as I try to push onto the door. The attendant started screaming at me. I turned back and said I can't see from far and was looking for empty toilet. All I got from her was abuse like I was some person looking for trouble. I was upset and just left within a minute cause I recognise the power trip and didn't want it to ruin my night. My friend waiting outside saw me and said why I didn't pee and I said the attendant was being power hungry and I just left. My white friend got upset and didn't believe me, and talked to her. She started screaming again and said I was screaming like a woman. She's a white Female and was upset on my behalf. Imagine being at a gay bar and being told you're screaming like a woman when you're just trying to explain yourself. So she called a black security to kick me out and the explanation was that she didn't feel comfortable with me. Imagine trying to explain yourself and everyone you try to be talk they tell you is that you're being aggressive or having an attitude.After a while my friend talked to the toilet attendant and a supervisor and they understood the misunderstanding but low and behold, the power hungry manager said I was not allowed back in and believe the staff. I know my comment will go unseen or from a bitter client. But being gay and rejected by your own kind really hurt my feeling. Having staff that feel uncomfortable by me because I was allegedly screaming like a woman in a gay bar is the nail in the coffin. For those who knows what I'm talking about(mixed raced), please stop going to those place. Being a biracial gay and being discriminated by your own race and community hits harder. So Jeremy, if You're wondering why people keeps complaining about your place, there you have it. It really hurts seeing people having fun in a gay place and genuine people kick out. I wish I recorded everything for you to believe me but if all happened so fast. But I took a pic of the power hungry manager who ignored me. Shame on you and the gay community. That's the reasons we(gay) are deserting gay spaces."

"the worst experience, I went with a friend, we both had a bracelet that allowed us to enter. security asked for my ID, then stared at it for a few seconds. He saw my ID and said you can't get in, you're drunk. and it was something super strange since he hadn't drunk anything, he practically told me that he had a drunken face. the other people were allowed to pass. They only make excuses not to let you pass and it is very embarrassing that they make you spend a moment like this. I do not recommend this place."

"I was turned away because they were only accepting “members and regulars only”. My best friend and I (both queer), who were prepared to spend money on the cover charge and drinks, were told that we were part of a group too large to enter since we made friends with the people in the queue. All of us were turned away for no apparent reason, cannot recommend - spend your money elsewhere."
