SOMA Soho

★ 4.7 (1,613)$$ · Mid-range

SOMA Soho sits on Denman Street and has built a reputation well beyond its size, with reviewers repeatedly calling it a hidden gem despite a busy walk-in queue on weekends. The cocktail menu draws consistent praise, and the staff's attentiveness comes up again and again as a reason people return. It occupies a sweet spot between a casual Soho night out and a more considered cocktail destination.

✨ Reasons to go

What people say

"Stopped for couple of drinks on Sunday evening…no booking but after 10 minutes of queuing we were in. We had 4 cocktails from the menu and few nibbles. Amazing cocktails and atmosphere. We were sitting at the bar and waitress/barman really look after us. Will come back again."
