THE RISING
SE1's only queer-focused Pub, with Live Music, a quiz and regular Drag shows.
Serving a rotating selection of beers, wine and cocktails.
Open to all (dogs included), with zero judgement.
We are proudly plant based and nut free.
The Rising has been proudly serving the local community since 1936 and we're here to continue that heritage.
The sad loss of gay bars, pubs and queer safe spaces drove us to create something right here in Elephant & Castle, to provide exactly that to locals and visitors alike. A warm welcome awaits you at The Rising.

We do our best to stick to the timings below, though special events or other occasions may cause these to change.
We recommend checking our social media for this week's schedule.
