About Monroe's Bar

Monroe’s sits right at the heart of Hull’s compact Freedom Quarter, where several queer venues line Savile Street within a few doors of each other. It is an easy starting point for the area, combining daytime drinks with resident drag performers, tribute acts, charity nights and weekend entertainment. The room feels social and accessible rather than overly clubby, making it work for a first drink, a full evening or the opening stop on a Hull LGBTQ+ bar crawl. Come for the local drag scene and stay for how easy it is to meet people.

What to expect

A friendly queer bar with drag hosts, entertainment and an easygoing local crowd.

Vibes

Good to know

Practical tips before you visit

Savile Street venues are very close together, so Monroe’s works well as part of a Freedom Quarter crawl.
The programme changes regularly; check social media for the night’s drag or live entertainment.

I Only spotted this bar the other day, I've walked past it several times in the last year, But didn't even realize what it was (it looks like a shop)the reindeer on the window got my attention so I decided to check the place out. It was very quiet, as it was lunch time and had just opened. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. There is the usual range of beers and larger, Obviously They don't do cask conditioned real ales it's not that kind of place. It is very large and spacious. They organise events and it's the kind of place that gets very busy and lively in the evenings. Would I call in again? Yes. I would like to go in at night to see what it is like then. Update I have been several times since as they take part in the trinity music festival putting on local musicians.

Don't do nights out often in Hull but when I do Monroe's is usually a pretty good place to hang out at. While its a bit on the snug side occasionally, the music and atmosphere is great and the staff are a hoot. Add in some fun entertainment put on through the week and its somewhere perfect to pop into, especially with Hull Pride round the corner.

How amazing to have a gay district in the heart of Hull, with such lovely bars. Monroes really is the heart of things, across two floors (although the top floor always seems vacant save for the loos) with a dance floor and screens. Always a laugh, friendly staff and fair prices on drinks.

Popped in for a drink while out and about. The place is very clean and well looked after, and the bar staff are lovely and polite. Very well priced drinks too. I will definately be back.
