Things to do when visiting Soho Theatre
The Nellie Dean is a popular pub which has stood there since 1748, and is a solid spot for a pint of lager. If Guinness is your thing, then head to The Toucan on Carlisle Street — they’ve been pouring great pints of the stuff for decades. Soho Theatre also has its own bar, and it’s usually open late for a post-show catch-up.
Further down Dean Street, you’ll find The French House, which famously only sells pints one day a year, and you’ll get a telling off if you try and use your phone inside the pub.
If the sun’s out, then pop over to Soho Square, a public green space with benches and table tennis tables.
And if you’re still struggling for ideas, we’ve put together our own list of what to do in Soho.
