Great bar only 20 seconds walk from Trafalgar Square. Great drag shows, great atmosphere and really friendly staff. It’s a place that’s always on my list when I get to London.
What a great place. I rarely go to the scene, but I accompanied friends for the Sunday cabaret. I loved the acts and the lack of attitude, I felt at home.
I then chilled out by the upstairs bar for a pint and enjoyed talking with Hugh (the barman).
I highly recommend this place.
I have been a regular at Kevin Walsh's karaoke for almost 19 years.. In that time have sen Half way to Heaven change so much . I can remember when they first stated having drag on Sundays. This was met at first with quite a lot of anger from the karaoke loyal following. Now many of the people who have been regulars are doing acts there self Son of a Tutu Victoria Sponge even Diane or lady D. to name a few.
I have seen so many people come and go and indeed comeback . i have because of Half Way made many friends many of them who live all over the world..
Kevin and the drag acts Chrystal , Kelley Mrs More Tanya Hyde Miss Penny Marta De Arthur Bet Rinse and many more have kept Half Way at the top of West Nnd gay entertainment..
As I have said been going to Half Way regularly almost 20 years cant think of a reason why i would stop.
Halfway 2 Heaven is a fabulous gay cabaret venue in the heart of London where it's attitude free unlike some others nearby and you get the best bar staff manager in Heather at the helm come for a pint or a skittle bomb dear!! X �
Fantastic!!
Great atmosphere....great act and good music.
Bar staff were all courteous and friendly.
A big difference to a few years ago when on a couple of occasions I found the bar staff had a very pompous attitude.
Been a regular since 1993. Friendly regular crowd and great bar prices. Always a fun time. Mature guys venue
The atmosphere, the drag acts and bar staff are all fabulous i love this place
Excellent value for money drinks prices for the West End, particularly the real ale! Friendly staff and it's the only pub I know where we regularly get chatting to fellow customers who are total strangers! Great fun!
We had a brilliant day in the halfway yesterday..very friendly staff .hilarious show.definetly worth a visit.
Always an incredibly enjoyable and fun experience with all the favourite songs and the best acts. Crystal and Kelly are second to none!
Great show, great music, great people. A must if your around the area because you will have a night that you will remember always.

Visited here on a Saturday afternoon for the matinee drag show! What a wonderful experience to enjoy with from and plenty of drinks. If you're on your own, you will quickly make friends. The atmosphere is great, and most patrons are friendly 👌
Absolutely fantastic venue, totally inclusive and an all round fun experience. The night we went we were entertained by the most sensational queen, woe Addams, an absolutely hilarious night and wow she has a set of pipes, the vocals were west end quality. Staff were very attentive and my glass was not empty long before I was being offered a top up (well it would be rude not to), I can’t wait to go back and visit again, if you are in the area please pop in, if you’re not in the area I would recommend you make the effort to go there. Me and my group travelled up from rural west wales just to visit (from a recommendation) and I’m so glad we did.
I’ve been coming for over two years now, especially Sundays, and I always have the best time. Crystal and Kelly are always entertaining. Staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. And the venue always feels safe and inclusive. Thank you for welcoming me to a beautiful family week in week out 🥰
Had a fantastic night here watching #Joe and Mrs Moore, they were incredibly funny and talented and we had the best time. They put on a great show and engaged us in between the amazing songs with a good laugh. The atmosphere was friendly and the bar staff were very kind as well. Plenty of drinks and a room full of lovely people.
Home away from home. Very reasonably priced for central London, staff and door staff are all very friendly - very welcoming safe space.
Something for everyone’s taste across the week with the cabaret acts or the perfect spot for a chilled drink upstairs!
The staff are always hard working, never waiting more than a few mins for drinks. Heather the manager is always leading and her staff to make the establishment feel like a safe friendly and calm environment whether you go in for a drink or watch the entertainment down stairs. All the staff are always up for a laugh joke and are always happy and smiling no matter what time of day or night.
I have had some of the best nights out at Half Way. Brilliant atmosphere, amazing drag artist that have you belly laughing and dancing all night long. The staff are fabulous too! Would highly recommend a visit.

Honestly one of the best queer spaces in all of London. It’s staff have such a warm and welcoming vibe, ensuring it always feels like home. There’s also a great range of drag/cabaret shows - including special events like the recent Bank Holiday Disney trivia quiz with Tanya Hyde and Craigerbell. A great venue for anyone looking to find a safe space to enjoy their evening.
What can I say.. As an old mum, tagging along with her son for his birthday.. I had the BEST night out for such a long time!!!
Letting my hair down, dancing the night away ( told James I'd only stay for one drink!), I was made to feel so welcome. What a brilliant place and great value for money with half price doubles on a Monday night...I have the hangover from hell today, but it's worth it! What a lovely bunch you are!
Can't wait to come back!

What a brilliant venue! An iconic Bar, Close to Trafalgar Square and with a lovely team that go the extra mile. Brilliantly organised days and nights and lots of great acts on top. A real must visit venue that rightly, is one of the best well-known LGTBQI venues in London. The Team there always look after us so well too, Mark, Ange and of course Heather too. It's a must visit. They do a fantastic job of running a fully inclusive space in one of the most challenging areas in London ❤️🏳️🌈
