This gay-friendly pub is a great place to start your evening before hitting some of the louder bars in the city. Features 2 floors, the ground floor can get very busy with after-work crowds but upstairs is a lot quieter and ideal for those seeking a more relaxed atmosphere. Especially popular on weekends with locals enjoying sports fixtures on the flat-screen TV's. Crowds are a mix of gays, bisexuals, bears and tourists, usually ranging from early 30s to 40s+. If you're looking for a cheerful bar in the Soho area of London, then add The Duke of Wellington on your list of places to visit.
