user reviews of the Ku Bar, Charing Cross Road

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

The new Ku Bar (on site of former Polar Bear PH) was heaving last weekend. Sat night it was 1 in 1 out only. Got small selection of Draught on tap, downstairs open till 3am free admission. Kewl bar, certainly giving some new style to the west end bar scene. Bit overpriced (Fosters at £3 a pint) but great atmosphere. Wonderfully attractive bar staff and glass collectors too....

Havent been in here for 5 years and it hasnt changed much. Still very up its own arse. The manager/owner is the most hateful man. I was looking at the dukebox to select a song when he pushed me out of the way and proceded to put £10 worth of songs on, I couldnt belive how awful he was. In any other bar in London the Landlord would allow you to select the songs and certainly not deliberately make you wait 2 hours to hear the songs you pay for.
No draught beer.

Popular gay bar on the Charing Cross Road, just out of the way of the Compton St crowds.

Frequented by a mainly younger crowd (18-30), it's very popular as a pre-club destination and for the cheap jugs of cocktails! I've been going here for 5 of its 10 years, and always found it to be a great place to have a chat with friends. It's also one of the few gay bars in Soho these days where you've got a good chance of being able to sit down, due to the numerous chairs & tables downstairs, plus the large seating area on the upstairs level.

Music tends to be fairly poppy, but they've got a music video system now and it never gets so loud that you can't hear yourself think.

Definitely worth a visit, if only to eye up the attractive barmen.
