Soho has a reputation for being one of the more culturally edgy areas of London. Made up of 90 streets in the heart of the West End, it has a colourful history and at one time or another has been home to The Sex Pistols, Karl Marx and even Motzart. How’s that for historic?
Overflowing with stylish bars, traditional pubs and eclectic restaurants, Soho is packed with some of the best restaurants in the city and is the stuff of legendary nights out. You can’t fail to be carried away by the energy and vibrance of its spectacular nightlife. During the day there is a range of cultural attractions and upmarket shops to get some retail therapy. But Soho really comes alive at night. Here are some great places to eat, drink and be merry:
