If you're a woman who loves art and other women, then get down to Goldie Saloon: London's newest bar and café for Flintas, envisioned as a 'sexy, gay living room down an alleyway in East London'.
'We're part of a Flinta renaissance,' Pennick said during a busy night at Goldie, where they cite several examples of flourishing lesbian cultural activity in London, from the Dyke March to queer pop artist Chappell Roan.
Art is central to Goldie's, works by queer artists including Olivia Sterling are hung on the walls. The bar was reassuringly filled with its intended community, rather than an art world set.
Ventures like this are vital; the decline of London nightlife, especially queer spaces, is well-documented. Pennick hopes it will be a 'convivial space to spark ideas, build relationships and foster community.'
