About
Located in the heart of the city, Vault 139 is a cornerstone of the London cruising scene and a vital destination on any global gay map. This subterranean sanctuary, situated just steps from Warren Street station at 139-143 Whitfield St, offers a discreet yet exhilarating space for gay men to connect, explore, and let loose. Whether you are a local regular or a queer traveler exploring the UK, Vault 139 provides a welcoming, low-pressure environment that caters to a diverse LGBTQ+ crowd. What sets this premier cruising bar apart is its rotating schedule of themed nights. From strictly 'NKD' (naked) sessions and underwear parties to 'All or Nothing' events where street clothes are perfectly acceptable, there is a vibe for every comfort level. The venue features a well-stocked bar, mysterious dark rooms, a maze, and dedicated play zones, all maintained with a focus on safety and cleanliness. Value is at the forefront here; your entry fee typically includes a free drink, secure coat check, and re-entry passes—ideal for those who want to enjoy the local Fitzrovia area before returning for more action. From 'hunks and bears' to students and tourists, Vault 139 is a clandestine hub where the community comes together for a salacious slice of London’s nightlife.
