What makes Sling special

Sling combines a regular bar with a cruising area: at the counter you have a drink and get chatting, at the back there is a darkroom, cinema and play zones. Guests praise the friendly bar crew, the lighting and the cleanliness; some find the drinks a little pricey. You are expected to order a drink when you come in.

Regular events

During the week there are theme nights, such as a cocktail Wednesday and after-work evenings on Thursdays; weekend nights are the busiest. On some Sunday afternoons each month there are naked and naked-mask parties. The current programme is on the website.

A good fit if you …

  • are looking for a central cruising bar that is easy to get into
  • are still out late at night
  • like naked parties

Not ideal if you …

  • are looking for a stylish bar without a darkroom
  • are not into cruising
Our tip: If you prefer it quieter, come early in the evening; before party days, check the website for any dress code.
