the thing with gay late is that some people from the staff, especially security, feel privileged to treat others like sh...t. They act like they own this club, showing off with their rude, aggressive behavior towards customers, and at the same time they will expect from you to have loads of respect for them. Inferiority complex? unresolved issues from the past? whatever it is, there is no excuse for Nazi attitude towards customers and that's what you can find out at gay late.
They don't care whether you will come back there or not as they are still quite busy and few more or few less doesn't make any difference.

In new Year Eve The Club Manager ( The lady who wears a Black suite - skirt and Jacket and they said that she is the Duty Manager ) I just entered the Club she was kissing another lady on the dance floor who was one of the customers on the lips and when I passed by the lady said happy New Year , was going to give me a friendly kiss, and all of the sudden this Manager who was kissing this lady pushed her away from me and shouted at me and said "Stop it now ", a few minutes later a security guy came to me asked me to leave the club and when I asked him why he asked me if I was Gay or not he replied you don't have to stay here because this place is for gays only and when I asked him I wanted to know what I have done to let me out he replies I am so sorry but my Manager who decided this so I asked him to speak with her and when I saw her I realized the she was the one who had an issue with me on the dance floor few minutes before,
For a Manager being on Duty first she has no right to get involved in any way between two customers, secondly she has no right to ask anybody to leave the club with no reason, but her own jealousy.
My Night was ruined I was there with friend of mine who was Gay and who invited me to accompany him in the club, I write this here to advice everybody not to go to this place

Poor show for what should be a beacon club in soho for the gay community. I've had many problems with the rude staff. Especially a female 'bouncer' with dreads... Avoid her if possible, she will ruin your night.
I went to the smokers area having been inside for about 30mins. When I tried to return this 'bouncer' stopped me and accused me of being drunk (which in any case is not unusual in a club) I wasnt and told her this. She insisted I did circus tricks in front of the waiting queue like standing on one leg and touching my nose... I did all she commanded and when she barked I could go in I passed and said this is ridiculous. She grabbed my arm and threw me out shouting in my face I was being aggressive!! She then demand I apologise otherwise no admission. By this stage I was stunned but realized she was on a girly power trip. This was not security, it's needless drama from people with a chip on their shoulder about their identity.
This isnt the only incident me and my friends have experienced from 'her' and the staff, but I wont bore u with details.
When will GAY employ staff who value and treat their customers at least with the common courtesy I'd expect from any human being.
It is a good night inside but seriously the staff destroy it completely and if your thinking of making an effort to go there, think twice.
O and I never apologized to the uptight drama queen, I spoke with the manager, who lacks people skills too!

oops can't do zero, which it deserves, the last time I managed to get in there I ended up in hospital with serious facial bruising, they don't warm to anyone over 30, but me being me I tried again tonight on my 51st birthday, the doorman told me I was drunk and to go away and have two big cups of coffee, which I did, and then queued again for another hour only to be told I'd verbally abused him and would never be let in, ever, despite my being friendly and getting on with the other doorstaff and everyone else in the queue, this really is the most shit club in London, is completely ageist and the music sucks, please if you read this, don't go there, I will be back there every night it's open, stone-cold sober just to be told.... I await the next spurious censorship, I have several friends in whhelchairs, so we might make an evening's entertainment out of it, with hidden cameras of course.

Basically G-A-Y with a later license and a different layout. You do tend to get a more pleasing crowd in here, than in the other one with more "real" people as opposed to the usual Lady Di impersonator.
The music is just like the other one and the bars are a bit busier, so get ready to queue for your drink.
Nice enough if you want to carry on your night in Soho and Heaven or Popstarz aren't open.

Vile place. The female bouncer is very unfriendly and rude- the few times I have been she seems to be on some silly power trip. It smells of sick inside. It takes a life time to get served at the bar. The crowd is very over the top and the atmosphere isn't welcoming. There are A lot of better places to go in Soho. The only reason G-a-y Late is busy most of the time is because of the obvious name and the fact that it is open late.

I am really upset with gay Late today. Last night I went to a pub that I like very much Molly Moggs and it closed at 23:00. In G-A-Y Late I met 2 sweet girls accompanied by a guy and we decided to finish our night at gay Late. I went to the cash machine to get some money and told them to go ahead that I would be meeting them there. Surprise …. Surprise…. I was not Allowed in. The Bouncer gave as always some lame excuse and didn’t let me in. I have to say that I have been there many times before but this Bouncer stopped from entering for no reason. I do like the music and the space at gay and have had lots of fun there. I am 47 year old guy and I am certain that it was one of the factors to be stopped from entering as I stayed out for 10 minutes and the Bouncer let people in even though some of them appeared having had one too many (drinks). I felt Embarrassed and discriminated. As a gay man, I have fought all my life against discrimination of any kind and now facing this type of discrimination in a gay place is just absurd and unacceptable. I hope the owner of G-A-Y Late read this and do something about it as he has been let down by his staff.

Oh my goodness! I am so so sad to read all this bad post. Is This true? Well it must be true, because all these posts saying the same thing about "member? I will be visiting London this July 2010 and checking places to go out. G-A-Y Late sounds sooooo bad, full of shit, with this so call member shit. Sorry Gay Late you will Not get my money! Again soo soo sorry not gonna spent my money there.
