Founded by London drag royalty Jonny Woo and John Sizzle, this East End boozer is home to some of the best drag and cabaret in the city. Like the gay bars of yesteryear, it also exudes a community spirit so often missing in today’s queer venues.

One of the brains behind The Glory is drag legend Jonny Woo, so no surprise that this east London pub does gender-ambiguous, adventurous alt-cabaret so brilliantly. It doubles as an LGBTQ+ performance venue with a basement disco and a full roster of shows, and acts as a platform for forward-thinking queer entertainment. It’s a genuinely mixed space where the vibe is less ‘anything goes’, more ‘everything encouraged’. Drop by for a drink and see how the night unfolds (typically, fabulously).

The Glory is an East End pub and LGBTQ+ performance venue with a basement disco at weekends and shows throughout the week. Bimini says it is where she was “first born on stage” in 2017, and is a “hub for alternative performances, styles of drag and are very welcoming of everybody and anyone”. It is owned by London drag entertainers Jonny Woo and John Sizzle, as well as Colin Rothbart.

The Glory is owned by iconic London drag queens Jonny Woo and John Sizzle, and legendary party-starter Colin Rothbart. The gay bar, drag hothouse, LGBTQ+ performance venue, nightclub, and event curator has been serving London's LGBTQ+ population since 2015.
