You'll find Blame Gloria tucked away on Bristol's Small Street, where the likes of diva drag brunches, 2 for 1 cocktails and wildly colourful interiors await. If that wasn't enough, maybe you'll be convinced by the fun playlist of hits from across the decades, including everything from Gaga to The Beatles.
As one of Bristol's livelier secret bars, Cosies! is a top choice if you're looking to dance the night away. Set in former cellars, the spot is now a neon wonderland of DJ nights and fun times.
Due to its sheer size - four floors, to be exact - you might think you would be hard pressed to miss The Milk Thistle. But this secret bar is well hidden; find it and find a swish restaurant, gin parlour and cracking cocktail bar.
