Thank you Jackie and the team in a very full Retro bar last night… I think you had half the pub for those attending 👏🏽👏🏽 was a bit awkward at the start as am afraid I couldn’t recognise anyone … very impressed a few recognised me (Kate and Katherine aka Bad Barbie (absolutely stunning) xx) from here and we chatted. I recognised only Pam when she came in xx Very well turned out crowd (many in everyday womens wear as opposed to party frocks and lots of confident make up / albeit less OTT although a fab goth amazonian girl with dark lip makeup was lighting up the back tables xx), mainly younger from how I could judge and all very comfortable in themselves and their partners (some CIS girls attended with a few men). Jackie came up and said hello which was very welcome to a new attendee (although this was my second time). I would say this event would suit those with a fair degree of comfort in being in a less club atmosphere … a more ‘normal pub setting’ as it were but also although am sure there were no judgements made, I felt perhaps the crowd last night were less inclined for those who prefer a more intimate environment (although I did spot some kissing in the pub … with a mm couple that were not part of the Retro event). There was a lot of eye contact with others but perhaps due to the numbers, it was difficult to speak to all. Maybe that’s my own insecurity in speaking too, as I felt I could never be as comfortable or as beautiful as everyone else there? I suppose it’s one thing being beautiful by yourself (or thinking you are) and then confronted by actual beauty in a room and realising how far away from that standard you really are!! Anyhoo … the event was well organised and the organisers were very hospitable. The venue is fab and location is quite central and easy to find (on google). Will recommend but no need to glam up … unless you wish to lol have fun and do hope to attend again xx |

My first time to visit Drab Drinks and had a lovely evening. The Retro Bar is easy to find. The staff were lovely and other drinkers very relaxed. It is definitely a nice safe space. The event was very well attended with 20+ trans and GNC I'd say. There was a mix of ages as the organisers promote on various social media not just here. If you are younger have no fear you will definitely have someone your age to chat to, but there are middle aged and older too so everyone is catered for :) Everyone was friendly and swapped seats when drinks were being refreshed at the bar to give you a chance to chat to different people. Some did drift away later in the evening. I don't know if to go home or into Soho. It was a wet evening so I don't think there was much desire to go walking anywhere. There were still plenty of us when the bar shut. All in all a well organised and friendly event in a friendly central London space. |

What was formerly known as the Drab Drinks last when I attended has transitioned to become the Trans+/Drab drinks. Was nice to meet friends and see familiar faces from some time ago. Also nice to see so many new faces and that it is so well attended. Many thanks to the organisers for continuing to do so and keep the spirit of this social event alive! |
