About The Yard Coventry

The Yard is much more than a night-time gay bar. Its central Coventry home opens for breakfast, lunch and drinks, then builds towards karaoke, open-mic nights, dance classes, drag, cabaret and DJs as the day goes on. That all-day range makes it unusually useful for LGBTQ+ visitors: you can stop in alone for coffee or food, meet friends early, or stay until the dancefloor takes over. The venue is explicitly trans-inclusive, has no dress code and provides an accessible toilet and lift.

What to expect

An unusually versatile LGBTQ+ venue that starts with breakfast and food, then adds drag, cabaret and late weekend dancing.

Great place to have a quick drink or to take the whole family to eat and drink. The food is amazing and the staff are great 👍 people who are ready to help and to serve. I recommend the cocktail 🍸 they have an amazing range and also do alcohol free as well. Lots of seating indoors and outside Clean environment. The prices are competitive with other businesses within the area. Unfortunately no parking due to being in the city centre. Great place to go I fully endorse this business.

Hi, I was served by Ben today and he welcomed me with a smile and outstanding service, as he always does. The Yard is a very pleasant place to visit and chill for a while, the music choices are spot on, making you remember that tune from yesteryear. I did not stop for food today, just drinks (non alcoholic, now), but when I have had a Sunday roast or a breakfast, Matt and Hazel have always presented a good and tasty plate. I must just add, that, in The Yard, you always get a nice personal experience and visit, even just stopping off for drinks, and the variety of food served is very pleasing to the eye and stomach, when stopping off for a bit longer. To sum up, my server for today, Ben, is a very professional member of the bar staff, and even gives you a minute to chew the fat. 10 out of 10, you must visit, you must, you must..... Raj.

Excellent lunch with the family. Out of university term time so quiet but the staff were very friendly and efficient. The kids meals were very generous and the baked potatoes delicious.
