Dark Room Gay bar Benidorm

A response to Helen's review: Men’s gay bars exist primarily as social spaces for gay and bisexual men where they can meet, socialise, and express themselves freely without feeling observed or judged. In Spain, the Spanish Constitution of 1978 guarantees equality but also allows freedom of association, and under the Organic Law 3/2007 for the Effective Equality of Women and Men and related legislation, venues can organise events or environments aimed at specific groups when the purpose is to support that community. Because of this, some men’s gay venues argue they are preserving a space intended primarily for gay men. The intention is not hostility toward women but maintaining the social environment the venue was created to provide for that particular community. 🏳️‍🌈

It’s the busiest place in Old Town Benidorm, absolutely packed most nights, and the music’s just proper good, no fake vibes.

What a lovely place catering to a wide variety of requirements without making people feel uneasy. Very friendly bar staff. Drinks are very well priced. Music adapts to the time and the clientele (appreciated the 80s tunes discretely selected when I went in there).

Nice place. Clean and met some fun, people. Bar man was cute and friendly.
