What is Man Bar and Growlr Club like?
Think pool table, drinks deals and an unfussy crowd. Man Bar sits a few doors from Funny Girls and keeps a traditional, down-to-earth feel. Above it is Growlr Club, reserved for men and reached by picking up a wristband downstairs. Expect lockers and a terrace for smokers, and it draws the bear scene in particular. Visiting party nights appear through the year, and a refurbishment across 2025 and 2026 has given the whole place a brighter look.
When should you go?
The bar opens Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 8pm, finishing at 2am. Growlr Club upstairs is listed for Friday and Saturday, roughly 9pm until 2am. Monday to Thursday it is closed. Gin & Bear It, the calmer lounge, sits next door.
What does a night at Man Bar and Growlr Club cost?
The club is entered by wristband from the bar; no wristband price is listed here.
