Great welcoming bar hidden away in Soho. Reviewing because of the great staff. They were brilliant at getting people tables, clearing glasses and politely letting people pass in the crowded space. It was a bit warm and I merely looked at the fans and someone came over and asked if we wanted them on! More

  • Mike Rouse-Deane

An amazing gay bar. Had so many pleasant memories here. Both great in day and night. Upstairs is usually the best place to go if it's packed downstairs. The staff are super friendly and love having a joke about how hot it is and whether it's just them whose hot. Fantastic experience every time I go!

  • Xander De Luca

Only ever been here in warm months so can't speak to the winter but this is the perfect LGBTQ+ friendly place to meet friends outside in central. Lots of space, nice being outdoors, very low key and chill atmosphere, no super loud music so you can have a chat. Really really like it here. More

The waiter was rude plus he stuck his fingers in mine and my partners glasses before we had our drinks finished asking if have finished the drinks...... i mean of course we finished with the drinks after he dipped his fingers in them .... gross More

  • Mark Showler

This used to be one of my favourite bars in Soho. But with a surly bartender and a lack of outside heating my opinion has changed. Also, why do they add a 5% gratuity to your check, when you have to queue for a drink, and get poor service? More

Bar on two floors with garden/patio and indoor seating area on ground floor and balcony and another bar on the top floor. Always found Great vibes here. It’s gets quite busy pretty much any day any time so don’t expect to find a seat easily.

  • Aron Szyls

Very nice place that definitely it’s much better week time so busy on Fridays and Saturdays when it’s just too crowded and it’s just too hard to move around. Really nicely done in a city style that represents night life in a modern but not

Tried to call several times to ensure that I could bring my dog. Nobody answered for 3 days straight. When getting to the venue (which is mostly outdoor and you can smoke inside) was not allowed because of the dog. However, when my friend

The security are racist. As a black male, got turned away inititally as it was "reservation only", with another black male with me. This was a lie. My non black friends ahead of me got in no problem, without any reservation. Obviously the

Rude and Abusive staff: was here a while ago and the manager ‘Henry’ seemed very stressed and rude. He made a terrible atmosphere among the customers and annoyed all the staff. He ran about out of control giving orders in an arrogant and

Doesn't accept cash payments. Unfortunately, this is a business that doesn't support the nation and the people who work hard for their money. Avoid at all cost. Could be a good place but not accepting a legal currency is not acceptable.

  • Momo

Had an incredibly fun evening here with friends! Can get a bit busy at the bar but not an issue! Music selection was fun and ambience was great! Drinks are reasonable for London standards not the cheapest but expected.

  • Marie G

Used to be a nice bar! But the bar staff are rude.. The bar was empty with no one waiting and barman asked me for ID, when I’m nearly 40! Then when I was getting I’d out walked away and started doing other jobs,

  • Piotr Blaszkiewicz

I been at this place many times, and yesterday someone broke a glass with a drink(full drink). And the manager of Yard just say if we want another we have to pay again! Really this is the customer service? More

  • Tomila Ru

Since when do we get charged for standing in the queue and waiting for the drink? Service charge for what??? Also £8.40 for a tiny glass of mulled wine? ARE YOU HAVING A LAUGH??? Not coming back..... More

  • Suyatra Sinha

Went here with my girl unknowingly. Then found out that it was a gay bar. But had an amazing time as the atmosphere was really good and also the beers were priced ok than other pubs of Soho. More

  • resymonds76

Why does the Yard insist on sneaking a service charge on drinks from the bar? Which bit of this is service? Is it me queuing for my own drinks? Or me carrying my own drinks back to the table?

  • Claire Filby

Extremely rude customer service!! Sitting in a legitimate smoking area only to be told smoking of a cigar not allowed. Nowhere does it say that. They claim ‘the neighbours might complain’.

  • Lucien E Jimenez

It's packed and lively on a Sunday afternoon (they open at 14:00), with friendly people, good service, good albeit expensive drinks. It has a garden, a loft bar and more. Enjoy!

  • Tarek Vegter

Quite a nice bar but outrageous prices for two pints. £13.50. Went to Halfway to Heaven later and three pints cost less than that!
