It's rare that I leave a review but this was my first foray into gay bars, as a relatively newly out trans dude who doesn't tend to pass yet I had been interested because of reviews about it being intimate. I also don't drink so have often felt awkward in bars but here I felt relaxed more so than i'd felt at any pub or small live music venue. The staff were polite and helpful, didn't feel like everyone was staring at me, there were others in there alone and no one was too loud & intimidating (though I was there early evening). Also cheap soda for central London - have paid more in smaller cities so good for budget too. Would definitely consider popping in again if I had a couple hours to kill in London, that 4-6 slot can be hard to fill if you don't drink!
Ku Bar has got to be one of the best gay bars in London. Great music, even better crowd and fabulous, welcoming bar staff! Special thanks to Stefano Dimoulas for being the the hostess with the mostest!! See you all again soon I’m sure ��
Amazing bar and club would definitely recommend to anyone.. such a good buzz.
Stefanos was literally the best host ever plus all the bar staff are lovely especially Dom �... two memorable nights now.
First night out in London and I found myself immediately in Chinatown. Promptly found KU bar. The atmosphere is great, drinks are reasonably priced and the music is wonderful. I also love the charging station they have in the corner as they don't have that in Wales! Such an innovative piece of technology. Would definitely go again.
Nice friendly gay bar. Bar staff very welcoming and atmosphere relaxed. Reminded me of the original one on charing x rd. Would recommend and will be back
I am regular here, the only bar I go to. Lovely staff, good music and atmosphere.
Went there with friends, great atmosphere friendly staff, will defo be back ������
A great bar , lovely staff, had a great evening, well worth a visit !😀
Great place. Extremely friendly staff. Actually probably the politest bar staff I've met in a very long time. We were made very welcome
Amazing place. Immaculate customer service especially from the Host Manager Stefanos... See you soon!!!!!
first time visit friendly smiling bar staff comin back to London in oct we will visit again
I had a wonderful night, friendly vibes from everyone. Music was great got me moving all night long. I will definitely come again �
Awesome night at Ku... Stefanos was an awesome host who made our night. Love the music, and being able to hear Lady Gaga in a gay club!!!
Attentive, clean and great vibe. 2 pints of Prahva lager is ~£12. Stopped by for a drink whilst in town for the day. Sitting outside was great for people watching as the bar is along one of the busier foot traffic areas in Chinatown. They've just done a bit of a refurb on the inside which has freshened it up a bit too.
I went here with my boyfriend and it was lovely. The bartenders were friendly, the door staff were lovely and the drinks were great. We also caught a drag show and it was amazing, Vicki Vivacious is absolutely hilarious and made my night. My singular only complaint would be the ambient music, it was a lot of really annoying pop stuff from the early 2010s and it felt really standard bar music, I was hoping that a gay bar would have more class when it comes to music but hey ho. Other than that, it was lovely. They are very accepting of all people, there's no discrimination based on gender identity, sexuality, race, disability etc. at least on the night I went. I would definitely go again.
Loved the two floors. Upstairs was chic & relaxed & downstairs was fun filled dancing & sweaty. Lol but in a good way. They also make a fantastic espresso martini here.
I love this place, its funky and fabulous decor adds a bit of posh glam. Bar staff very attentive, friendly and professional. Good wine beer and spirit menu.
Some seating outside for smokers and non smokers, great place to watch the buzz of life in this very central spot.
I really enjoy bringing friends visiting London, great music and atmosphere in the club downstairs, walking distance from the underground.
I went last night after theatre. Amazing staff all round. The DJ was amazing (and hot). The bar staff nice. My biggest praise has to be for the door staff. On our way in lovely but we ended up next to an exit and the guy there was so courteous to everyone and created a really safe space.
Thanks so much to you all.
Friendly gay bar. Located at the Chinese town in London. Nice atmosphere and music. My only complaint is the entry and drinks prices are very expensive.
Went for the first time tonight and had a brilliant one. Awesome venue with a intimate basement dance floor. The service from door host to bar staff are lovely. What was a bit annoying is that I couldn't tip them on card. Update your card machines management - tips make make customer and bar staff connect and appreciate each other. Your bar/club/lounge would greatly benefit by giving customers the option
Nice bar. We enjoyed our time there. Drinks are reasonable. Security and staff were professional. I noticed someone was intoxicated and reported him to security. They professionally handled the situation.
At some point, they close the bar upstairs and offer everyone to go downstairs and charge them £10 admission.
On the screen advertised £10 inclusive of a complimentary cocktail. It was only 50% accurate, admission was correct but there were no drink included 😉
The security guard/manager was absolutely amazing in terms of service and professionalism. Their name slips my mind but it’s the tall woman (I hope I got it right 💀) who was extremely helpful and professional. Other than that, the club is very clean and the clientele is very friendly so Cudo to them.
A large group of us went to Ku Bar for a reunion party at the end of September and we all had a really great time !!
The management, door host, bar staff, wait staff and the door staff were all amazing and went out of their way to accommodate us all due to a change in our numbers attending.
Other businesses should take note as that is how it’s done!
Super friendly and welcoming staff at the door and in the bar. The atmosphere was great, all people were nice, the dj was great, he played iconic songs from abba, RuPaul, cher! Had a lovely time! Wear safe shoes!
Perfect central spot for a fun day/night out.
3 floors with different atmospheres for everyone’s mood. And extra terrace for outdoor drinking on a sunny day.
You can have a chilled drink in the classy lounge, dance to some pop bops and current hits on the ground floor. Or get hot, sweaty and ravey on the basement klub until early in the morning. All within the same venue.
Welcoming staff and security,
service 10/10.
I went there twice. Once in January 2020 and now in July again. Both times i remember the prices for drinks were kinda high. If you really want to go there to drink, you should consider bringing at least £30. The music also was a little bit too loud so we couldn’t really hear the waiter or each other without talking close to each others ears. Otherwise the atmosphere is nice, the place is clean and the Staff is friendly.
