Pubs & Bars in Soho

Soho's pubs & bars are the reason a lot of people come here after dark. The range runs from old British boozers pouring real ale and proper comfort food to cocktail bars where the drinks take a bit of thought. Some are tiny corners made for a quiet pint, others fill up and stay loud until late.

There are sports pubs that come alive on match day, music venues with live acts, beer gardens, rooftops and basement rooms you'd walk past without noticing. The categories below break it down by what you're after on the night. Traditional Pubs are the long-established Soho pubs serving time-honoured ales in an honest setting, while Gastro Pubs put a good pint alongside proper cooking and a sit-down meal. Craft Beer Bars pour a changing line-up of unusual and locally brewed beers, and Breweries let you taste at the source and see how the beer gets made. Cocktail Bars run from classic mixes through to inventive ones, all made with care, and Themed Bars offer something a bit different, with a setting to match. Live Music Bars, meanwhile, let you catch local acts while you drink.

Whatever the occasion, Soho has a spot for it. Use this listing to find yours.
