Description:
Retro Bar is a very friendly and busy mainly gay pub with a great atmosphere. George Court is an alleyway just off the south side of The Strand, in London, and is situated between Superdrug and Halifax. Normal pub hours. There is scope for parking nearby, in John Adam street but it is very limited and difficult to access. The bar is a short walk from either Charing Cross or Embankment tube stations.Retro Rendezvous currently meets on Wednesday evenings at 8pm. If you want to eat beforehand, there are places in Villiers Street: Hobson's fish and chips, Lulivo Italian Restaurant, and Five Guys burgers, and a Pizza Express in the Strand, corner of Duncannon Street.

A very relaxed evening of drinks, chat and bar-hopping. It may be that this is your first outing in public, or maybe you're a seasoned pro. Either way this is an opportunity to get out into the 'real' world and have fun with like-minded girls. A rough plan is outlined below with complete flexibility for people to join/ leave as they wish. We know that being in a group can provide that extra layer of confidence to express who you really are and strut your stuff. (Strutting optional, especially on cobbles). No dress code - whatever you feel comfortable in. Rough plan as follows; Meet up at Retro Bar around 9-10pm for drinks and chat until 11pm, and then on to Mr Fogg's Tavern until 1am. It’s not too far a walk so there’s no excuse for not wearing killer heels! Some of us may call it a night around midnight/1am but others may well carry on into the night – Covent Girls don't lack for stamina! Heaven at Embankment is the option for the hardcore/late-niters, for which there are known to be a few... ;-) |

We were confined to a table at the back because the pub was packed with other parties, but we still managed to enjoy ourselves.
