Restaurants in Soho

Updated · 190 places we track in Soho, first recorded between March 2026 and May 2026

Soho holds more saved places than any other part of London and roughly half the floor space. Almost everything worth eating is up a narrow staircase or down one, the good places do not look like much from the pavement, and the whole thing resets about every four years without ever really changing.

How we chose

We track 190 places in Soho filed under restaurants. 34 of them turned up in creator videos we pulled apart. 17 places have been saved by Spillist members. Places with a creator mention, a member save or a member gem rank first, and mentions weigh most. The rest runs on a broader popularity signal from our wider place index, so the tail of this list moves less than the top does. Last added to in May 2026.
