Bristol Bear Bar
Old Market’s dedicated bear bar for relaxed drinks, DJs and gay men’s nights
About Bristol Bear Bar
Bristol Bear Bar is one of Old Market’s most distinctive LGBTQ+ venues and one of the UK’s few bars built specifically around the bear community. The emphasis is social rather than glossy: a small room, approachable staff, regulars, visiting bears and themed nights.\n\nDespite the name and core audience, the venue describes itself as attitude-free and welcoming. It is a strong option for visitors who prefer a more grown-up gay bar atmosphere to student-heavy clubbing.
What to expect
