The Colombian is one of the most popular gay bars set slap bang in the middle of the World famous Oxford St. (Home to the Sydney Mardi Gras Parade). Renowned for the best people-watching window in Sydney, extravagant Drag shows, quality DJ’s pumping out the best house music 7 days a week until 6 every morning. Fairly lenient bouncers make it a popular spot with late night drinkers from all walks of life but they still take charge and keep out most of the 99% of the local Oxford Street inhabitants.
The Colombian is generally a good shot if you’re looking for somewhere with a beat, no door charge and a clientele with a sense of humour. Although the Colombian is a gay/lesbian bar you can be sure to find a fair few straight guys and girls knocking about throughout the night.
