Arrived in London late and hungry. We still had to check in to our hotel and had noticed, on the Yelp App, that Salt was not far. We asked the front desk guy about it but apparently he wasn't a fan. He referred to it as where "night people" went. Not sure what he meant by that at the time but, it was night and I was hungry so, I guess that made me one of them. Left our things in the room and walked to Salt. As we approached the restaurant we realized what he meant. We were in a middle eastern part of town and this place was packed even though it was already 10pm on a weekday. The people at the outside tables were smoking hookah, having delicious looking Nan bread with dipping sauces, and everyone seemed to be having a great, relaxing time. Seemed like a great place so far. Went in and liked it even more. Plenty of tables all around, beautiful and very organized full bar (with a long list of whiskeys), and we were seated immediately. Took me a while to decide on what to eat, they have a good variety of dishes on their menu, mostly Indian cuisine but there some dishes for people who prefer things like a burger or fish and chips. Finally decided on their Chicken wrap, and we also ordered a lamb wrap and potato cake. While we waited for the food we got our drinks... vodka soda and a Campari Spritzer. The food came out fairly fast and hot. Big portions and Big flavors. The Chicken wrap had a delicious curry taste, and you can ask for it to made with nan instead of a regular wrap "bread". The Nan makes a huge difference, trust me. Made me want to ask for more on the side but I refrained as what we had on the table was more than enough already. It comes with a mint sauce on the side but, I enjoyed it more with the yogurt sauce from the potato pancake. Which were very tasty too! Our server came over from time to time to bring us new drinks, refill our waters and make sure food was to our liking. So glad we didn't listen to the guy at the hotel. As mentioned it was my first night in London, and so far it started on a great note. Definitely a place I would recommend!

So many whiskeys!

First night in London, and we were looking for a basic bite and a basic drink. Something "local", you know. Turns out we found a spot That's not basic at all. We checked in to our hotel a bit late in the evening, and asked the guy working the front where was good for a bite and a drink. He said most places were closed or closing soon. I mentioned that I saw Salt on yelp nearby with food. "It's close but it has, sorta different food. And it has, night people, if you know what I mean", is what he responded with. Well that was intriguing so we had to go. We arrived and realized what he meant. The place was packed with Middle Eastern people, most outside enjoying the night air and smoking from Hookah pipes. it was a popping place, but definitely not a British crowd of guys pouring back pints. we sat inside and we were hungry. I got a lamp curry wrap and my gal got a wrap too. OK not the most original thing on the menu but we got the potato cakes too. Everything was great. The wraps were really, really good and hit the spot. The had some good wines and scotches as well, which really added to the night. The quirky ambiance was a welcome surprise. it was so foreign to us, but was designed to be entertaining. I don't know when we will be back to London, but we really do hope t make it back to surprisingly great spot.

My husband and I travel to London once a year because of his work. After shopping or sightseeing, we'd usually end up at Edgware Road to grab a bite and relax with some shisha. After trying out other places on the strip, we discovered this place over the weekend. The music, the crowd, everything was just attracting us to check the place out. We sat down after 20 mins or so, and realized the shisha was cheaper but good, the music was good and it was probably the only crowded place on the street. After that first visit, every time we're in London, we always go here. Awesome place to relax and unwind.

Very stylish place, but very expensive. I recommend it for a glass of whiskey or a pint in the early evening. Not the best place to dine in.

I fo not usually write reviews but i felt i had to after reading bad press aboit the place…read moreyesterday. This place is fantastic. Take everyone if you want to have a good evening with live blues music for free. They play every night and the place is a small independent bar in Soho. Ignore the news about a group being turned away becase of their colour. I have seen people of every colour, gender and belief there. I have met people from every corner of the world there. everyone is welcome. Go and see for yourself.

The menu itself is brilliantly designed with throw backs to childhood classic characters among the likes of Winnie the Pooh, Paddington Bear, Narnia characters, Harry Potter and my favorite childhood author, Roald Dahl. Loved the illustrations and the drinks to match. Of course you have to try all of them. Can't guarantee you'll remember all the charming conversations shared with your fellow bar patrons or lovely bartenders but you'll walk out feeling quite delightful. The noise level was perfect and added to our continued date night from downstairs at the Social Eating House.

Look for the hidden door next to the restaurant and slither your way through a passage of stairs. The service at the front was very nice, everyone was very friendly. We showed up an hour early and they were kind enough to accommodate us. We tried a few of the cocktails from the menu and were very happy. Drinks were pretty well balanced and not too sweet or too strong. I did ask for an off menu drink that was gin based with citrus and not a basic classic cocktail hoping the bartender could drum up a surprise for me that I can't make at home and they brought me a gimlet. It was delicious though so no complaints. Overall great experience and I would recommend!

After downing a Carrie Bradshaw-style cocktail at the chill subterranean Friendly Society (review:…read morehttps://yelp.to/4zJuovAN4J), Jamie W. and I were way too intimidated to face the manly crowd in front of Compton's. We went in the opposite direction on Rupert Street and found this inviting courtyard bar. It's marketed as a gay bar but... The clientele was more mixed than gay. Hey, it wasn't a big deal to us. Especially as we sauntered to the bar bathed in pink and royal blue dayglow. Boys bellying up to the bar. Oh yeah, we home. The print was really small in their comprehensive cocktail menu, but that didn't stop us from ordering more libations. Stop judging us. Jamie went for the £12.50 Margarita, and I continued my Cosmopolitan streak with their £12 one (photo: https://yelp.to/RsyQWeRD5R). We went back into the courtyard to find a table. The leafy terrace and strings of white light were quite inviting, and we ended up hanging out in this sanctuary until they closed at 11PM. Cool.
