| En route to this bar on a crawl last night, a friend of mine exclamed, 'Oh GOD not that despair place!' I soon came to understand what he was talking about. I'm all for a cheap, unpretentious soho gay bar, but 79 CXR is just depressing. It made me think hard about the lengths I'll go to in order to buy a cheap double vodka and coke. Apparently the men's toilet attendant was asleep. ringtailedlemur - 28 Dec 2011 18:41 |
| the toilets have been cleaned up but most of the punters have vanished ... the two are related as improptu cock was the reason the place was popular. sorry to say that it's one on the way out, like a lot of gay pubs. benscaro - 22 Nov 2011 12:16 |
| Ugh... No matter how drunk you get, and how fogged up your beer goggles are, this place is not the nicest venue to find yourself in. Its usually busy from 11pm (it has a 3am licence). But the venue needs so much work doing to it. It could be a much nicer place with a paint job and a bit of love and attention. Don't bother to venture to the nasty toilets unless you are really desperate.... Essexladjoe - 29 Oct 2008 12:19 |
| Open till 3am (charged £3 after 10.30) its a somewhere to go when every where else is shut and your practically guaranteed to pull, which is fine. However some of the punters are objectionably drunk and the bar itself is a dark dingy affair. trobinson - 18 Feb 2008 16:57 |
| The later it gets the crusier it gets and the dearer the beer gets. Worst toilets of a gay bar in London - wake up Westminster Council Enviromental Health. bob55 - 21 Dec 2007 12:51 |
