In the heart of London’s Soho, Cafe Boheme has been serving French classics for over three decades. Offering an all-day menu centred around French favourites, including confit duck, steak frites and escargots – all dishes are based on traditional recipes.

The brasserie is inspired by the 19th-century poets who used to meet on Old Compton Street and features art-lined walls, a brass bar and mosaic tiled floor.

Head outside and dine al fresco for views across Soho or join us at the bar everyday from 3pm for live jazz.

    My Wife & I had a very nice meal followed by some dancing with the band at the bar. A very enjoyable Saturday afternoon.

    Good food, fast efficient service , had the full English, fair value. It was very cloudy outside, the ambient lighting didn't match, needed to be a bit brighter.

    Have been many times food is great and nice ambience but the service was quite bad this time , very slow and unattentive. Spent a lot of time trying to catch someone’s attention, they were clearly understaffed but to make it worse the staff didn’t even seem apologetic about it.

    My main course arrived without potatoes, the other guests almost finished their food when the potatoes were brought. After that there was no service, the waiter was no where to be seen. The plates stayed on our table until we asked someone else for help and the dessert menue. Food was good, service poor.

    Hi Roland, we’re very sorry for the delay with your potatoes and the lack of attentive service. This isn’t the standard we aim for, and we’ll address it with our team. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope to provide a better experience next time.

    Came here for a pre-theater dinner. Great location, food average. Extremely loud - it was very hard to have a conversation. Service was quick and friendly.
