Golubaya Ustritsa

St Petersburg


Loud, lewd and lots of fun, this is the coolest gay place in town. Take your pick from the main bar, where the uninhibited crowd is often quite literally hanging from the rafters, the Priscilla Queen of the Desert karaoke bar, or the other upstairs bars and dancefloors.

Meaning Blue Oyster, the bar is named after the leather bar that featured in the 1980s Police Academy movies, but is as unlike it as vinyl is to velvet.
