This bar, which changed it's name to eOne in 2007, is now closed and is unlikely to reopen.

What was a relaxed trashy eastend gay boozer with character became a 'trying to be trendy' cocktail style bar, admittedly, quite decent for five minutes before the paint started peeling and the local drug clientele started up shop in its darkened corners. Now bordering on the downright scary, if not from the horrendous 'am i bovvered?' bar staff then the almost accepted attitude of the local homophobic girls that inhabit the place on a saturday night.

this used to be a fairly decent mixed gay pub, open late, nothing special, although candy the slag in the drag was always a hoot. Stumbled in last Friday to find it had changed name, same pretty bar staff, but no longer gay, at least, not very, perhaps about 5%. Instead it was a veritable drug den of the eastends finest dealers and losers. I witnessed at least 3 fights and saw some poor italian guy on his own battered to a pulp. Blood everywhere. Weirdest thing was that the bouncers didnt kick anyone out everytime a fight kicked off so inevitably it flared up again and again. Horrendous. Avoid at all costs.

Fabulous East End Gay/mixed bar. Quiet in the week but weekends get rammed from 11pm onwards. Great cabaret on Friday nights and cheap drinks. Excellent friendly service. Plus a dancefloor and disco most nights. Perfect!
