What makes Masquerade special

Masquerade is on Cumberland Street, a small lane in the Pride Quarter, right opposite the Poste House. It is a friendly bar with theme nights, cabaret, DJs and karaoke, with hostesses Angelic and Marlene leading the nights.

Drag queens, quizzes and gin come up most often in the reviews. There are parties around Eurovision, and many people celebrate birthdays here.

Atmosphere and crowd

The interior, the drinks selection and the team get praise. The crowd is mixed, mostly between 25 and 50. On Fridays and Saturdays it is open until 3 am.
