Soho’s iconic Roundhouse has undergone a £1m restoration and will reopen as Soho Residence, the premier bar, club and lounge space in London’s West End.
Opening on November 28th with a capacity of 350 and spread across three floors at 83-85 Wardour Street, the magnificent Soho Residence is the most exciting and anticipated new venue Soho has seen in decades.
Erected in 1892, the Roundhouse building itself has previously existed as blues and skiffle clubs, welcoming celebrated performers from around the world. Its latest and greatest incarnation as Soho Residence, will continue this rich tradition by offering the ultimate night-out experience in a venue of unrivalled elegance and grace.
This uncompromisingly restored space, formerly known as The O Bar, offers an opulent lounge for the discerning drinker, a botanical cocktail bar with world-class service and a warm, relaxed atmosphere throughout. Housed in Soho’s most famous and historic landmark, this chic and sleek new venue will be open until 3 am every night except Sundays, with DJs providing a classy soundtrack.
The ritzy Ground Floor of Soho Residence boasts a hint of art deco style with enormous Crittal-inspired windows allowing light to flood in, a fresh botanical feel, hanging plants and banquette seating, plus plump cushions and a plush Soho vibe, all complemented by professional service and contemporary cocktails that dazzle with their fun, flair and flavour.
The Basement Club is a place to be mischievous with festoon lighting, big screen imaging and a selection of craft beers and cocktails that will welcome the capital’s glitterati for nights of grown-up fun and late-night partying.
Lastly, the First Floor has high ceilings and tall windows which direct your gaze down to the bustling streets of Soho below, as well as snug sofas and sumptuous fabrics, all in a cosmopolitan and carefully curated space designed to make you feel like a million dollars. This floor and the Basement Club are both available for private hire.
Soho Residence is the most adventurous and exciting new development to hit the West End in many years, and this artfully realised vision of a venue is set to become the most talked about and must-visit destination in London.
Soho Residence will soft launch on Wednesday, 28th November. For more information and bookings, head to sohoresidence.co.uk
