Historic gay boozer for pints

Updated January 25, 2023

One of Soho’s original gay bars and once a secretive gay-popular hotel in the 50s, “The Grande Dame Of Old Compton Street” has been welcoming crowds of gay men for longer than most. Expect a more mature crowd sipping pints rather than the usual trendy Soho crowd.

Visited one of the oldest gay bar in London! #soho #london🇬🇧 #comptonsofsoho #lgbtqiahistory

By the 1950s the Swiss Hotel had been renamed to "The Swiss Tavern" and was known as "not entirely straight". By 1986 the Swiss Tavern had been renovated and renamed to "Comptons of Soho" as a gay bar. In November 2006 it celebrated its twentieth anniversary, at which time, QX Magazine referred to it as "The Grand Dame of Queer Street".

TBT to the time when we could get this close! This time with the absolutely incredible thearmisteadmaupin ⁣

I was so excited meeting him and his lovely husband Christopher in comptonsofsoho . And even more exited when he told me they’d moved to London. He was even more warm and friendly than I’d thought possible. ⁣
⁣
Tales of the City were groundbreaking in the 1970’s when they were written, and are just as important now for the LGBTQ+ community. Alongside the wonderful characters is a solid foundation of love, hope, acceptance and family. ⁣

If you’ve not read these books, or seen the beautiful netflixuk talesofthecity show, go read/watch! ⁣
