The area
Address
Neighborhood: Soho
The go-to district for a good time in London, Soho hosts a wealth of world-class theatres and a compelling lineup of cafes, restaurants, pubs, bars, and clubs. At Soho's core is London's original Red Light District and the epicenter of the LGBT scene – and thus the city's hottest nightlife. For shopping enthusiasts, Soho is not only the home of London's greatest concentration of boutique shops, but also the most strategic place to set off on a tour of the world's most celebrated department stores. In the southern part of the neighborhood lies Chinatown, with its multitude of delicious and affordable restaurants. Closer to the Thames, Chinatown's narrow and teeming lantern-lit lanes spill onto the expansive hub of glitzy Leicester Square.

Came in to bar soho on a whim after we saw their 4pm to 1am happy hour deal. The decor is really cool and the music is great. The drinks are good and are a really great price. Our server Nico has been really nice and attentive. We’ve had a fantastic time overall in Bar Soho and would definitely come back!

We booked on the guest list for sat 3rd of May. The party organiser was very accommodating as we were arriving late from the North East and reassured us our table would be kept. True to her word we had no problems getting in and ushered to our reserved table, with complimentary bubbly. The staff were very attentive, drinks reasonably priced, music fab atmosphere was brilliant. Would definitely recommend for all ages as we were a party of 11 females age range from 19 - 50 and we all had a fab night. We will be back !!

I've been drinking on Compton street for over 20 years and finally decided to go here for a friends birthday. What a nightmare it was. Arrived slightly later than the rest of the group and has a nightmare with the security. The bald headed guy on the door had the biggest chip on his shoulder. I presumed he was confused and thought he was working at Soho house, when he decided to lie and tell me it was a guest list event only and insisted I call my group who was inside to prove I was allowed entry. When my friends finally mange told hear their phone in the noisy cramped bar and came out, the bouncer had the audacity to ask a 40 year old bloke for ID, just to run salt in the wound before charging an entry fee. Ruined my friends surprise as I was left outside for over 40 minutes. Bouncer seemed quite happy to let in A multitude of under age girls.
Genuinely a horrid environment. I would avoid at all costs.

Friday night my friend and I was enjoying the night and everything was good, until one of the security left his position and come to our table asking us to leave as this table is reserved for someone else from inside 🤣, “ we were seated there for long time and nobody didn’t say anything about reservation or etc. However we called a guy who is named as “Alex” that was the name he gave us, he was very RUDE with us and unprofessional, We said we’ve being here for long time and we’re still enjoying the night and now you’re asking us to leave the place for which reason? There’s no reservation at all, why you’re kicking us from here? What have we done to the place a part that we are spending here and etc? I definitely don’t recommend this place to anyone, rude staff, they kick people out for no reason at all, the night was getting to the end and there wasn’t no reason to treat us like that. I work with customer service as well, I never treat or being treated like that. Well done 👏🏼 Alex and Fibe.

Bar Soho is a time machine - at a stroke it can transport you back to a time when (so called) hospitality venues could afford to utterly disregard things like service, customer satisfaction, common courtesy and hygiene. I'd venture to suggest that in this post-Covid world, with venues competing for limited custom, Bar Soho will manage to swiftly transport itself to time when it is resoundingly out-of-business ... & jolly good riddance!
With the honourable exception of BJ on the door, the staff at Bar Soho give a very creditable impersonation of not giving a damn about customers. It's such a shame for them that their, no doubt riveting, internal conversations have to be (very occasionally) interrupted by the need to patronise, snark at, & ignore the paying punter.
Service, such as it is, is performed with a level of ill grace only exceeded by the management's response to feedback - one has almost to beg to be served & the over-riding impression is that the staff feel that they are doing you a favour when they do, eventually, interrupt their shop talk to pour a drink.
On the bright side, the glacial pace of our "service", & need for repeated requests, did at least delay the evil moment when some of the least hygienic drinking glasses seen in Soho since the days of John Snow finally arrived.
There are plenty of custom-deserving businesses in Soho - I'd definitely advise against wasting time & money on a visit to this one.
