Soho Joe in City of London, Westminster

Delicious double cheeseburger for £8. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. What else do you want?

Always such a good atmosphere here with lovely cocktails and delicious food 🤤

We decided to try this place based on some reviews. Our experience didn't match many others. Place was not that busy but seemed welcoming, music playing, and we were seated in a little booth. Drinks and food were ordered and we sat there chatting awaiting the order. 2 drinks arrived, for 4 of us. So we waited a bit and then mentioned we had all ordered drinks and so the missing drinks were brought. Next 3 of the 4 meals arrived and again we had to go asking where the 4th meal was, turned out it hadn't been written down, despite us all clearly being asked and selecting from the menus. So one of us had to wait until the others had almost finished for their meal. The kofta burger as soon as it hit the table had a strange smell emanating from it and it wasn't pleasant. On tasting, it tasted a lot like the smell. Our party member who ordered it couldn't eat it. The rest of the food was... OK. Chips were good but the amount of water dripping out of the burgers didn't make for a great experience, made the buns instantly soggy and we all ended up eating them by deconstructing the burgers. But by far the worst part was the toilets. I'm almost certain that the facilities at Guantanamo bay are better than these. I was half expecting to be seized by a member of the military and waterboarded in this subteranean dungeon. You couldn't move in the cubicles, it was foul, dank and smelly with stalactite type things hanging from the ceiling. Even though I had to go again at the end of the meal I decided to skip them and not be reminded of how awful they were. Truly the most grim toilets I've seen in a restaurant in my half century plus of eating in the West End. So whilst the atmosphere was ok, some of the food ok, many aspects of visiting Soho Joe's were not really up to scratch. I wouldn't go back.

My first visit here for a quick lunch was delightful. I opted for the double patty burger, and it exceeded my expectations with its delicious flavor. I'm already looking forward to returning.

Lebanese food in Soho with very good flavors. We tried several burgers and they were delicious. Very friendly staff. Perhaps the intimacy is not the best thing about the place since it is a bit small, but it is worth going.

The food was excellent and it wasn't expensive. However, it took too long to ring us our waters, the place is very crowded with narrow aisles and the restroom is old just like the rest of the establishment but the restroom is ugly. The food was excellent and not expensive. However, it took a long time to get our drinks, the place is very cramped with very small hallways and the bathroom is old like the rest of the establishment but the bathroom is ugly.

Simple, well cooked, kindness, real price, Super good food.

Eveytime I go here, it's awesome - one of the best bars in Soho

Delicious food and great service from friendly staff. I’m a vegan and there were tasty options for me. Recommend fattoush salad with hummus and flatbread on the side. Smells amazing in there from the cooking. There is also happy hour 👌

Delicious food, very good price, totally recommended if you want to eat Lebanese tapas.

Amazing!!!!!!good prices, plates and staff!!!!!

Great music... Excellent burger... Poodle friendly!! : )

Best falafel i have ever eaten , lovely staff . Thanks .

Good burguer but didn't came with fries and that seemed weird. They need a clearer menu as it's messy. Cocktails were nice and people too.

Amazing staff and music! The cheeseburger was a bit overcooked but I loved the fries!

I love Soho Joe's! Brian is always so accommodating and fits me in even when it's packed out. The food is awesome and i love the fact they've now starting doing a good selection of burgers. They make a mean negroni also :)

A lovely place run by a caring father and daughter. The food is delicious, especially the lamb kofta burger. The service and drinks were incredible, and we will surely be back in Soho Joe!

Hands down the best labenese food in London. So much flavour in that meat. Highly recommended

Love this for everything about it.

It was my bday a few days ago and I met a friend for dinner&drinks here to celebrate. The staff noticed it was my bday and brought me a little cake & candles after our meal. It was a very sweet and unexpected surprise and it really made my day. I've been coming to Soho Joe regularly since I discovered it a year ago because the food is delicious and the atmosphere is great, but this made me love the place even more!

Myself and two friends went here this evening as from the outside it looked appealing, as soon as we got in the atmosphere was great, such nice girls working there and the food was to die for. Honestly loved it here and would come here again next time I’m in London.

The service is perfect , diego the bartender and the waitress sunshine and Amira were perfect . And the owner Joe is always amazing . And the music, WOW

Great place, recommend highly! The lebanese food was super super delicious. Kiddo says the burger was too. Combination of lebanese food and burger is perfect if you love middle eastern food but your kid doesn't. Everything reasonably priced. Staff very friendly. Will visit again when in London the next time!

Absolutely amazing service! Hands down the best char grilled halloumi I ever had in my life (please do yourself a favour and order some) And bagging cocktails for a more than reasonable price! 100% would recommend

Love this place it’s so chilled with a good atmosphere and the staff are always friendly, it feels like soho back in the day. Unpretentious great for a catch up or after work drinks.

Great food, awesome service and vibe!

Amazing food, lovely staff!!! Thank youuu! ♥️✨

Originally wanted to go to the breakfast club next door but there was a queue. They have a lad outside highlighting this and telling you that Soho Joes actually has better google reviews and even shows them to you. We gave it a bash and wish I had queued for the breakfast club. They sat us downstairs, no real atmosphere. My breakfast was ok, nothing special. My wives crushed avocado on a muffin was poor. Muffin not toasted enough no real seasoning, tasteless and poached eggs under cooked. Coffee was average and it was expensive. Staff were pleasant enough. They asked my wife if she wanted hers boxing up and she told them she didn’t enjoy it they didn’t ask why.

Such a nice place. Food is tasty and worth every penny. Nice cocktails too and great atmosphere. Friendly staff. “C’est 5 étoiles pour vous!” Merci.

I had a kofta sandwich and falafel sandwich. Both were very good except I think it was sweet pickeld onion in the sandwish which was wrong idea to me 😞.

We were wandering around close to Carnaby Street and looking for a place for breakfast. We went past the Breakfast Club and there was a queue and a very lovely man said they had space in Soho Joe’s. Well what a find!! The breakfast was superb and the service was excellent. Cannot recommend enough!!

Our experience at this breakfast joint was marked by the amiable and accommodating staff. Despite the absence of a specific dairy-free menu, they went out of their way to ensure that my meal was dairy-free, which was greatly appreciated. Their attention to accommodating dietary needs was commendable. The hash browns, crisp and flavorful, were a definite highlight. However, the pancakes my companion opted for turned out to be a tad dense and dry. Should you visit, I highly recommend trying their English breakfast for a satisfying meal. In summary, the service was exceptional, and while some dishes shone brighter than others, the overall experience was pleasant. If you're in the area, it's worth stopping by for a hearty English breakfast.

So we were heading the breakfast club next door originally as this is our usual go to, however we left it a bit late and we had a show to catch in about 1.5 hours time and there was a que for TBC, so the gentleman outside accosted us and we decided to try SOHO Joe as they had tables available immediately. The menu choice was not that extensive, service was slow and they forgot to bring a OJ and after 25 minutes had to ask where it was, over all it was "ok" however its not somewhere I will be revisiting personally.

Great breakfast. Small cafe but nice chatty atmosphere. Lots of space downstairs too even if it looks full from the street. Would go back

Went for breakfast here. Filling meal, tasty, bit pricey. Service very good. Not a huge selection but you don't really need a huge selection for breakfast.

What an amazing place this is, everything was 10 out of 10 for me. The food was so amazing I nearly had to be rolled out. The cocktails were so delicious I wish I could drink them everyday. Service was very friendly and efficient from start to finish. What a great night and highly recommended.

Soho Joe is an absolute hidden gem, and I'd say I have a knack for discovering hidden dining spots. When you step inside, you'll immediately feel the relaxed, easygoing atmosphere for a memorable dining experience. If you're in London, this place is a must-visit, trust me. What's really impressive is that it's conveniently located next to the ever-popular Breakfast Club, but I'd pick Soho Joe over it any day of the week. I recently stumbled upon it after living in London for almost 2 years, and let me tell you, it was a brunch experience like no other. The efficiency here is on point; people were waiting for 25 minutes at the Breakfast Club, and I was already having a great flat white and full breakfast at Soho Joe in just 20 minutes. With 7 years of living in NYC under my belt and experiencing some of the best breakfast spots here in London, I can confidently say that Soho Joe ranks highly among breakfast spots in London. I'm already planning my return visit for dinner because the food quality, service speed, and overall experience were absolutely spectacular. Don't miss out on this hidden culinary gem – it's a must visit!

Great location for a date. Also the staff are soo so friendly. Thank you Ishrak for your wonderful hospitality! ❤️

Fantastic food and drink at great prices. Loved it!

Amazing food. Sean was the greatest the host to wish for. Thank you for the experience

Five star breakfast. Fantastic eggs Benedict and stack of pancakes. The Hollandaise sauce was great. Coffee was also good. Lovely ‘real’ atmosphere with a warm welcome from all the staff. We would absolutely return!!

They've nailed breakfast/brunch, great value for money. Fun and relaxed atmosphere, lovely staff!! 11/10 recommend

What a treat we had today finding Soho Joe. James was welcoming, fun and pleasant, the food/drinks were delicious and all the staff were friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed it and will visit again! Thank you.

My Soho go-to! Great food, great staff!

Great breaky and excellent service in this family-owned business. Was on our way to another place when invited in by one of the family spruking their wares. Tasty, fresh food. Warm, friendly service. Was also offered an alternative when I asked to hold an item on the plate - impressed by that. Check them out!

Waiting outside a nearby store, a grumpy old man came out waving a menu at us saying his place was better. I am sorry but to try and attract customers by rudely waving a menu at potential customers - no thanks.

Amazing breakfast just what you need on a rainy morning. The owner was really friendly cracking jokes and making our experience great!! We will definitely come back

Great brunch, nice and friendly people, tasty cocktail (one of my best espresso martini!!!) We recommend! Thanks Joe, your family and you’re team!

I think for what it is, the food is amazing! Great Lebanese quick eats at a great price :) seems more like a pub/bar than a restaurant and during happy hour, it is 2 cocktails for £15 (at time of writing) though it is slight dingy, maybe due to customers there and time of visit (late Friday night)… I would definitely come back for some delicious cheap Lebanese grills (£7-8)! We also got baklava with ice cream - that was great as we got a variety of baklava.

Amazing food!! and I especially loved Happy Hour!! Food and drinks were all delicious that I will have to bring more of my friends to try this place out! Everything had great prices, my friend and I loved the interior of the restaurant and the vibes it gave!

We were looking for somewhere for a hungover breakfast and this was perfect. We both had the full English and I couldn’t fault it. The sausages were super tasty. Service was great and friendly. If we come back to London soon we’ll definitely come back and try the evening menu.

Had a great breakfast here, staff are really nice! Recommended 👍

Nice spot for a bit of brunch. Benefiting from the spillover from Breakfast Club next door with much less fuss and queuing. No mess no fuss.

Hands down the best Breakfast I’ve had in a Very Long time! No lines or ques to wait. Staff are great they go above and beyond for your needs! 10/10

A Soho secret , amazing Lebanese dishes, fab cocktails, friendly staff and great music Now not only the best (spicy) sausage in Soho ….the breakfast menu is back! -The delicious relaxed start (or finish) to your day, my fav breakfast dish …pancakes and fruit with a mimosa ❤️

Con la música demasiado alta. Pero el servicio y la comida muy buenas.

Was extremely quiet, had the restaurant all to myself on a Wednesday evening. Food was alright (table ordered the lamb skewer, beef sausage, halloumi, hummus and the baklava with ice cream) the baklava was an absolute delight to eat and was easily the highlight of the meal.

Its a MUST if you are in central and want to enjoy a good drink and a proper meal. Food quality and taste are flawless + the staff is always there for you!!! Dont miss out!!

🫒🌶️🍢We enjoyed a handful of savory Middle Eastern apps at Soho Joe’s. The food was delicious, came out of the kitchen quickly, and was served by friendly people! We sat outside, directly across from The George, and enjoyed the people watching and “pub life” which was in full force! 🍻 We happened to be there during happy hour for BOGO drinks and nobody was complaining about that! 🎉

Wow Lovely place Lovely staff Foods excellent You won’t be disappointed I highly recommend this place Excellent atmosphere

I was blown away by the amazing service, good vibes, fun music and really yummy food at a great price point given the central London location. Such a hidden gem. I will definitely be back!

Really tasty, delicious and affordable food! I really recommend this place if you are in central and you don’t want to spend much money on something delicious.

Really good music, not so great drinks. Their happy hour runs till closing though, at least on a Saturday.

Wow, this place is such a hidden gem that I found by accident. Service was great, the interior was clean, and I was the last person to order food before the kitchen closed. Every item was cooked fresh, flavourful, and artfully served. I will definitely be back here and recommend it to anyone who loves Lebanese food and great service! Cheers!

The place has loud music and no internet which I wasn’t a big fan of. HOWEVER, as someone who has eaten Lebanese food all my life and have visited Lebanon, they’re food is very close to the real thing. Everything tasted amazing from the humus and the falafel to the kofte. Would recommend, but would suggest for the resturant to work on its atmosphere a bit.

The raps here are super tasty. Loads of flavour. Great service. Why not.

We ate here before a show this evening and the food was brilliant. We had the halloumi, the hummus and flatbread, sumac and rosemary fries, falafel wrap and the lamb koftes. All the food was really well flavoured and fresh. The dressing on the halloumi was delicious! Really reasonably priced for London too. Nice relaxed atmosphere, good service and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing place for drinks and food in soho. The prices are very fair. Lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend the grilled chicken.

Great Lebanese food with 2 for 1 cocktails … what more could you want ! Love this place !

I couldn’t recommend Soho Joe enough. Me and a friend met here on a Saturday afternoon. It was encouragingly busy but we were offered a table without any hassle. The delicious Lebanese menu is a rare thing in this part of town, and we really enjoyed everything we ordered. Staff are incredibly friendly and make you feel so welcome. It has a family-owned feel which turned out to be accurate! Drink deals including happy hour for cocktails were the cherry on top. We will keep coming back for as long as Soho Joe graces our streets. Thank you!

Popped in for some chicken and mezze and it was fantastic. Happy hour cocktail as well. Look at the food pics 🤤

Excellent restaurant! Accueil chaleureux, très très bon service! James et Bahar sont hyper gentils ! Ça termine tellement bien notre voyage extraordinaire à Londres

Great food and drinks. We had to wait a couple of minutes for a table but definitely worth the wait. I'd definitely come back!

The menu here on Google is massively outdated, they don't serve pizza anymore. I'm sure the rest is amazing but I prefer places that deliver what's promised.

Nice cosy little place with great staff, the atmosphere is not Middle Eastern at all, if it was it would be perfect

Great place great cocktails owner a great guy a must visit in soho 👍

The food food is so good the staff also very friendly and nice I highly recommend if you want to have a good time and good food

Fantastic food and great service. Happy hour cocktails always a good thing 😉

Great find, delicious cocktails and tasty small plates!! Would definitely recommend as a pre-theatre pit stop

Personal prietenos, mancarea decenta insa zona demisol de evitat. Iz puternic de birt comunal, iar curatenia din toalete lasa de dorit.

Wow what Amazingly presented food,So delicious too.Incredible value in Soho,very friendly staff,a must to try if in this area.

This could be Soho‘s best kept secret! Fab food (do not miss their houmous!), great service, sensible prices, and even tasty beer (try Beirut, crisp & full!). And what a friendly relaxed vibe.

Todo riquísimo y un servicio excelente, volveremos!! Un must si pasas por soho! ❤️

Recomendable al 100%! Nos sentimos como en casa y la comida increíble! ☺️

Great concept, lovely food and people. I have been there a few times with my partner, family members and friends, everyone was in love of the place and the Lebanese food. I highly recommend it.

Atención excelente, sitio acogedor y la comida muy rica (y barata!!!). Tienen cocktails también, con happy hour. Super recomendable!

Great place to have a night out in Soho. Staff was friendly. Reasonable prices. 15£ for 2 cocktails during the Happy Hour. Didn't get to try lot of food. Visited on Friday night and it was lively and buzzing. Will definitely visit again

New mangement. Sucks bland Soho tourist trap. Overpriced unfriendly rude staff. Tasteless overpriced food and cynical atmosphere

This place is just wonderful ! Excellent food! Marvelous attention, and the place its perfect to hangout! And the owner its a really handsome guy.

Great cocktails. Great food. And the infamous Soho Joe!!

Wanted to pop in somewhere for a quick cocktail and noticed the doorman letting people in. We were seated immediately, but it had a funky vibe. Loud music and disco ball light effects. We ordered a couple of cocktails and a hummus plate. Both came out quickly. The hummus and cocktails were both tasty, but as we only wanted one cocktail we started looking for our server. I eventually got someone's attention and we were able to pay out quickly at that point. Aside from a hiccup in the service, and a atmosphere that was a little loud (for my taste) we had a good time. To be fair, it was a Saturday night, and some guests might really like that kind of environment.

Buenisimo! Probamos el falafel y el pollo za’atar.

Nice clean food...not a huge menu but really good value for money

Soho Joe never disappoints!! The halloumi is to die for, the mezzes and meat are also delicious and really good value for money. It's also a great place for groups!

Nice cocktails, relaxed vibe. Decent food, great place to pop into for a quick drink and some light food

Good spot. Would be better if they stayed open later.

Amazing wraps, tasty cocktails, relaxed atmosphere!

Delicious food, fairly priced . Great for a quick bite with a cocktail. Workers are very friendly.

Fabulous food and great service 👌

Omg, not been in London as a couple since 2019 and thought we would revisit the last restaurant we visited then, was just as good this wine and they had the same awesome rose wine! Lovely vibe, friendly staff and super tasty food, what more could you want 🤔
