Soho Area Guide

Arrow down blue

In Soho there is room for all; for big and smaller businesses, residents, shoppers, tourists and Londoners seeking somewhere to dine, drink and dance the night away.

If you are looking for your office in Soho, but want know more about the area, we have put together an area guide and included some key places for you to know more.

Soho Transportation


Soho Square can easily be accessed via Tottenham Court Road with Central line, Leicester Square with Northern and Piccadilly line and Oxford Circus with Victoria, Bakerloo and Central line.

Soho doesn’t have its own train station, but all of the station above are about 5-10 minute walk away from the Square.

Eating and Drinking in Soho


Soho is an eclectic and edgy neighbourhood famous for its theatres, clubs, restaurants, sex shops and book stores. This district has a rich history and culture, it’s also closely connected to the London’s music industry (from jazz to rock, from punk to pop). The food in Soho has gone through a renaissance in the past 5-10 years, with dozens of tiny and trendy restaurants, bars and cafes.

Shackfuyu

Shackfuyu is the little brother of Bone Daddies and Flesh & Buns. While all three restaurants have very different concepts and menus, they all share influences from Japanese cuisine and Shonhan’s modern approach to traditional dishes. The idea behind Shackfuyu is to “playfully highlight foods current in Japan today”, with influences from Korea and China. The short menu features Japanese-style tapas, with small dishes that are meant to be shared.

Shoryu Ramen

Shoryu has several branches in London, of which two are in Soho: Denman Street and Kingly Court. They specialise in Hakata tonkotsu ramen from the region of Kyushu in southern Japan. This ramen is made with a thick, rich pork soup, and added different toppings to change the flavours and spices. If you don’t fancy ramen, you can order gyoza dumplings, steamed buns or yakitori. They also have a large selection of sake, a traditional Japanese spirit that is brewed from polished rice.

Berwick Street Market

An increasingly rare relic of Soho’s less-gentrified days, the Berwick Street Market, originally established in the eighteenth century, once ran down the middle of a street filled with cheap cafes and independent record shops. Now its neighbours are mostly trendy coffee shops and sleek comic books shops, but the stalls on the market remain refreshingly down-to-earth; selling fish, fruit and vegetables and fresh bread.
