Whether you are there to work or to have fun, this is a must-not-miss part of the city. One of the main attractions is the huge number of restaurants of all kinds and all prices

Excellent club for all ages, we are all in 50's. Great music and dancing. £5 to get in, opposite Ronnie Scotts in Soho. Expensive drinks but great atmosphere

This has transformed over the last ten years from a sleasy sex area to smart pubs ,Coffee shops restaurants ,clubs and the centre of gay life... China town is also here...Gerrard street and beyond...it has spread over a vast area... I have to say that many of the Chinese restaurants offer good food but abysmal service...but the food is there... More

Ok there may be a few chains creeping in but you can still find great unusual shops and so many food choices . Step away from the crowded... More

You can't visit London without going to Soho and China Town. On Wednesday night, we went to the 12 Bar club in Denmark Street in search of a bit of music (via Chipotle - an extremely fast and delicious Mexican fast food restaurant); we listened to a couple of bands but wanted to find something different then so left about...

I have been going to the West End and Soho every month for the last six months as my tattooist is in Soho. I love the area. I'm a big fan of Asian cuisine and there's plenty of restaurants (not just Asian mind you) in the area. China town is only a short walk away. There's a lot of bars... More

A relaxing place amongst the bustle of London life. Great in the summer to sit in the public gardens and enjoy a beer!

Even if you are visiting SoHo, and your not into "that sort of thing", you still should visit this lively area of London. Hidden away between piccadilly circus and Oxford Street, SoHo will not disappoint you. In the daytime, you can sit outside one of mayrestaurants/Cafes and people watch and take in the busy life while having some coffee or... More
