Now that Tacos is closed, which will be the next ‘official’ gay bar?

Now that Club Tacos has come to a close down and all, I can’t help but wonder, what next? When Tacos was still open, the LGBT community could walk into this club knowing full well that this was a comfort zone of expression for them.

Tacos club is now under full make-over. From the entrance, down to the washrooms. Plans of transforming it into a state of the art sport bar are underway. Now lets be honest, because of the unfriendly environment to the LGBT community in some bars, the chances of you witnessing a gay moment were like 1/10. And it’s just hit me that the chances of now coming across these gay moments in clubs all over the city have just increased by 9.

Well, just a quick notice to any homophobic/borderline-homophobic people out there -all the way from those who are seriously disturbed to those who are made slightly uncomfortable with same sex hook-ups- you are about to have it rough. You do know that there will eventually be a replacement for Tacos, right? And it just might be your favorite spot.

Just to be clear, at Ghafla! we do NOT support discrimination of any sort. But we get it, it will definitely take some getting used to for many of you to see open PDA between our Kenyan LGBT community. In the meantime, -as we wait for everyone to take a chill pill-, where do you think the next ‘hotspot’ is going to be? Club Betty’s? Some say that Club Envy already took over a while back, while others claim Red & Black in Westlands is on top of that?

Hmmm… so what do you think, which club is taking over the ‘official gay bar’ title?
