Interestingly, in 2021 it was reported that a former DJ at the pub plans to resurrect the venue in Taunton, a small town about 165 miles south west from London. It is now a gastropub called The Pembroke. The shift did little to maintain the business, and the bar unfortunately closed in 2008. In the mid-1990s the bar shifted its focus once more, becoming a regular gay bar in order to attract more customers. The most well-known of these, Colin Ireland, also referred to as ‘The Gay Slayer’, murdered five men he met at The Coleherne.
The bar unfortunately had tragedy surrounding it – three separate serial killers have used it as a stalking ground for their victims. With the change came all of the things you’d expect – blacked-out windows, notoriety, and a shift in clientele. Though it long had a reputation as a bohemian haven, and attracted a mixed clientele that included many queer people, it wasn’t until the 1970s that the bar officially became a gay bar.Īnd not just any gay bar – a leather bar!

Rather than deterring audiences, of course, this drew them in, and the crowd was so huge that it spilled out on to the street. Things went supersonic after the newspaper News of the World heaped scorn on the night, running a critical article entitled “This Show Must Not Go On.” They convinced a number of local drag queens to come into the pub and perform alongside them.Īnd, before they knew it, they had set the wheels in motion for the Queen of the Month contest.įrom then on, every Saturday night between September 1964 until May 1965, the bar was full of revellers cheering on a gaggle of competitors for the crown. The pub wasn’t a gay bar until, in 1964, a band called The Downtowners, who played there regularly, came up with a little gimmick for their gigs.
