The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Soho
The go-to district for a good time in London, Soho hosts a wealth of world-class theatres and a compelling lineup of cafes, restaurants, pubs, bars, and clubs. At Soho's core is London's original Red Light District and the epicenter of the LGBT scene – and thus the city's hottest nightlife. For shopping enthusiasts, Soho is not only the home of London's greatest concentration of boutique shops, but also the most strategic place to set off on a tour of the world's most celebrated department stores. In the southern part of the neighbourhood lies Chinatown, with its multitude of delicious and affordable restaurants. Closer to the Thames, Chinatown's narrow and teeming lantern-lit lanes spill onto the expansive hub of glitzy Leicester Square.

    Great vibe of a bar
    Rupert Street Bar in Soho is incredible, and Mario is an absolute gem! Hes quick at making drinks (unmatched), his recommendations are on point, and his friendly demeanor creates an inviting atmosphere. A must-visit for a memorable cocktail experience!

    Amazing cocktails before theatre
    Had a fabulous time before going to see Les Miz matinee around the corner. They had a very attractive Australian bar tender, who made us margaritas and even though it was the middle of the day and rather quiet, bar had fun atmosphere and the barman was fabulous. Definitely coming back!

    Great hospitality from Joe & Co.
    A nicely laid-out, modern gay bar with personable and diverse staff, a gem in the area. Looked after particularly well by Joe. Cocktails are good here, reasonable and good late-night atmosphere

    Amazing atmosphere
    I recently visited this bar for my birthday with a few friends and was immediately struck by the lovely atmosphere it exudes. The ambiance was perfect for a evening of celebration Upon entering, we were greeted by our server, Joseph, who left a lasting impression with his impeccable politeness and helpful nature. He truly went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and ensure our experience was top-notch. We enjoyed a few cocktails during our visit, and Joseph's attentive service added to the enjoyment of our evening. I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone seeking a delightful atmosphere and exceptional service. Kudos to Joseph and the entire staff for creating such a memorable experience!
    Bonniele6329ov, thank you so much for the positive review! We look forward to your next visit! Take care! Anthony and the Team

    Lovely Bar with Delicious Drinks
    While exploring London over the weekend, me and some friends popped in for a few drinks. We were greeted by a lovely gentleman with a great beard named Joe. He was very charming and made us all delicious cocktails! The bar overall has a very fun vibe to it! Its definitely on our list next time we visit London!

    Bartender Joe’s arms
    I was there on a Thursday and had the funnest time with friends. The music was mainly good old pop classics and we were served by the most handsome bartender, I think his name was Joseph. Joseph’s ability to carry served pints was so impressive, we could not stop talking about his muscly arms and smily face. Would totally recommend the place and return whenever Joe’s there. Xx R

Myself and my partner “tried” to call to this bar one Sunday evening about 6.30pm, we had been here on previous trips to London and found it a fun and friendly bar.
As we were about to go in the front door a very unfriendly, smug almost aggressive doorman stood in our way without even saying a word, when I said excuse me he asked us if we’d ever been in here before? We said we had but he still didn’t move, he then for no other go reason asked to search my partners bag, when I asked why? He replied because I can, we this I said come on let’s go.
This is an extremely poor reflection on a London city centre iconic landmark bar, this is the type of aggression that is 20 years behind the times to a community that has tried for many years to gain equality. A word with door staff on costumer service is very badly needed here.
The next time we go to London (2024) we will try this bar again and see is there a different attitude, hopefully there will be and I’ll write a new review.
