Reviews

Guest experiences at the Village Soho are mixed. Some report a fantastic atmosphere, especially during Happy Hour and events. However, there are also numerous reports of unfriendly staff and a strict door policy, particularly towards women in mixed groups. Several guests felt uncomfortable due to the treatment at the entrance and the unprofessionalism of the security staff. These experiences cast a shadow on the overall positive image of the venue and indicate that a better approach to all members of the LGBTQIA+ community is necessary.

Overall, the Village Soho remains a focal point of nightlife in Soho and is a good choice for those seeking a lively and welcoming bar, even though some guests were disappointed by their personal experiences. It’s up to you to give the place a chance and form your own opinion while enjoying the colorful life of London.
