GREEK STREET LIVE: Soho’s house and home of live weekend & late-night music

Come and revel in the rakish soul of Soho. Greek Street Live is a fiercely independent stalwart of Soho that stands proudly as a bastion of revelry, a defender of individuality, and a haven for artists, renegades and good-time-seekers.

Soho’s house and home of live music is one of the last remaining independent, late night venues of London’s original hedonistic neighbourhood, and intends to stay that way. Split over two storeys of one of the famous street’s historic townhouses, request-based live music is the name of the game, all performed by a dynamic rotation of bands, musicians, and artists.

Throw into the mix a bar overflowing with masterful cocktail making and wallet-friendly happy hours; a talented kitchen team delivering delicious dinners and smashing the weekend brunch-to-the-beat scene; and selection of spaces available to make your own and you’ve got yourself a sure fire hit.

The Vibe

A unique venue with an inimitable spirit, the heart and soul of Soho has been captured within the newly refurbished townhouse’s inconspicuous spaces and alcoves that complement the low-lit, raffish interior.

A stage on the ground floor is the main base for bands. Greek St. Live guests can choose to get in amongst it and flood the senses with every scintilla of beats and bass from five-piece bands and piano vocalists or seek a quieter nook on the lower level near the secondary bar.

Throughout the week an eclectic assortment of acts and tracks take centre stage ranging from pop and rock through to lounge and contemporary jazz with a vinyl-only DJ jumping on later in the evenings to keep the vibes pumping. Meanwhile weekends boast a distinctive playlist all of their own with Brunch to the Beat. Support acts of cracking cocktails and delicious food make it the ideal spot for spirited night-time revellers to party into the early hours and calmer souls to come for chilled after-work drinks and date nights.

Whenever you choose to stop by, getting involved in Greek Street’s live jukebox journey is simple. Grab a request slip from the tables or bar, fill in your song choice, hand it to a member of the team who’ll pass it onto the talent then dance the night away to your tracks and in awe and appreciation of those chosen by your fellow drinkers and diners.

Spirited Soho

At Greek St. Live it’s easy to match the drinks to your own unique tempo. Those praying for payday can time visits to coincide with daily changing drinks deals that deliver an array of Wallet-Friendly Wonders. Happy Hours flow from opening ‘til 8pm every night Sunday-Friday, with double bubble on Saturdays from midday-2pm and 4pm-7pm. 2-4-1 cocktails areavailable all night long Sunday to Wednesday, while Wine Wednesdays uncork all bottles of house wine at half the price from 5pm until closing time.

Mixologist Mainstays might mirror the trajectory of your night with Unholy Water (gin, lillet, lime, grapes and elderflower) leading to Liquid Seduction (vodka, lychee and lemon), before getting Low Key Dirty (tequila, Kahlua, coffee and agave) and ending up Guilty as Charged (Martel, Baileys, Shankey, Creme de cacao, coconut cream and whipped cream).

Group gatherings should check out the Bubble Boutique for bottles (or even magnums) of prosecco and Champagne. Whilst the In Vino Veritas wine list offers a small but perfectly formed selection of crowd pleasing grapes by the glass or the bottle. Give into Fizzical Attraction with refreshing spritzes, enjoy a brew with draught or bottled beers and ciders bottled, let the Shot Squad hit a boozy bullseye or swerve the hangover entirely with Mocktail Marvels.

Munchies, Brunch & Dinner

What sets Greek St. Live apart from London’s other live music venues is the fact it’s serving up food that’s as tasty as the tracks. Small plates include punchy Asian Papaya Salad, creamy Burrata with roasted aubergine and pepper caponata salad, or pan-roasted King Prawns wrapped in bacon confit garlic sauce. Whilst large plates offer up melt-in-the-mouth Miso-Glazed Salmon with mixed vegetables, tender Rare Duck Breast with potato gratin, comforting vegan Shepherd’s Pie with puy lentils or a classic Aged Sirloin Steak with french fries.

Come Saturday, Bottomless Brunch (£45pp) steals the spotlight: two glorious hours of fizz, mojitos, or mocktails paired with up-tempo brunch favourites – think Parma Ham and Pancetta Eggs Benedict, smashed avo toast, or berry-stacked pancakes, all served with mini hash browns and washed down with a live playlist that is guaranteed to make your Saturday sing. And consider your Sundays sorted with Sunday Sessions featuring duelling pianos playing your requests and hosting Soho’s biggest singalong party alongside Happy Hours 5-8 pm, and 241 cocktails all night.

And where there’s any excuse for additional celebrations, you can count on Greek St. Live to ramp things up and match your energy with the likes of Bank Holiday 4am Don’t Stop Me Now parties to pay-day weekend festivities.

A heady mix of live music, DJs, immersive performances, and an energetic late-night party atmosphere, Greek St. Live creates unforgettable nights out that will have you requesting more.
