Don't go looking for anything original here (after all, this is a street with two Starbucks on it) as this is an unspectacular Nicholson's pub. The main bar always feels on the small side, whether that's due to the giant screen...
The Crown and Anchor corner edifice juts out like prow of a ship into the waves of people flooding Covent Garden. The busy ground floor area is an unexceptional but decent enough space, with lots of standing room. Drinks-wise,...
Punny name aside, if you like your bars 'alternative' rather than 'stylish' then the Crobar is probably the best place to drink in Soho. The bottled beer and cocktail choice is pretty good, but the selection of bourbon is...
Just down the road from the XXX end of Soho, this one sticks rigidly to Sam Smith's four key rules of Pub Management: traditional interior, cheap booze, Sam's branded drinks and a ban on music. It's also possibly the brownest...
The usual Wetherspoon recipe - refit a large commercial property (in this case a bank), serve up cheap beer and food and watch them flock in. Commercially this place must be a success: getting through the local civil servants...
The overuse of exclamation marks is a common failing in modern English usage and there should be no exceptions when it comes to naming a bar. Unwarranted over-enthusiasm aside, this is an odd little place tucked in between the...
Motion is a conveniently placed bar, suited to younger weekend drinkers and after work gatherings. Set in the unusual Hungerford House, the small ground floor gives way to a labyrinthine basement area, where most of the...
Reopened as one of the cocktail bar chain. We'll let you know what it's like when we get back to it.

The Lyric (or 'The Lyric - Soho', as it's name helpfully informs the geographically bereft) was one of more characterful pubs in the area before it closed in 2006. Happily, however, it's recently re-opened and is - for want of...
Looking for an even more alternative slice of Soho? One which doesn't involve standing in the road outside a packed pub surrounded by media types, uncomfortably holding your pint? Well, look no further than Garlic & Shots....

The Old Shades is in middle one of a trio of Whitehall pubs (practically in a row) but you'll find this one is a better bet than the other two - it actually shows a bit of character. With leather bench seating, leaded windows...
