12-14 Park Row
Bristol, United Kingdom BS1 SLJ MAP
Type: Land Based
Status: Closed
Open: 1973, Close: 1991-12

Always called ‘The O', this was Bristol's major gay club for men until the 1990s. The Oasis occupied a basement beneath shops in Park Row, with the street entrance a barely noticeable black door with a vinyl canopy above (now the Dojo Lounge). It inherited the slightly Middle Eastern decor and arched openings from its previous incarnation when the Oasis had been a club for architects. Richard Sweet purchased the lease in 1972 and initially continued to run it as a straight club, but in 1973 decided to turn it into a gay club. The doors at the back opened onto a narrow paved yard known as ‘the garden' overshadowed by Trenchard Street multi-storey car park
