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.

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Café Boheme, nestled in the heart of Soho, exudes a "Parisian" atmosphere with a vibrant ambiance and friendly staff. Renowned for its "immaculate vibes" and live jazz, it's a go-to spot for French cuisine lovers. While noise levels can be high, the "freshest oysters" and attentive service make it a memorable dining experience. Perfect for theatre-goers, it offers good value with its fixed-price menu and diverse options. Although service can occasionally falter during busy times, the charming setting and "super friendly" staff keep patrons coming back.

    Lovely . However the mussels were very disappointing, very very tiny and shrivelled.

    Classic French brasserie food, perfect for Sunday brunch. Attentive service, with Eggs Royale, Toulouse sausages and similar all delicious, cooked to perfection. Will definitely return soon.

    2/3rds of the menu was unavailable on Saturday night
    Café BohemeResponded 7 days ago
    Hi Stuart Please accept my apologies, I know how frustrating it is when menu items are sold out. We are always busy on Saturdays, but that day was particularly busy and we got the ordering slightly wrong. I will send a private message with my email address and hopefully we will see you again soon. Please you drop me an email so I can make the reservation for you and make sure you are well looked after.

    Our service was charming, attentive and thoughtful. My elderly mother was treated with such care. The goat's cheese portion was a little stingy but we very much enjoyed our meal.

    We enjoyed a colleaugue catch up/relaxed lunch at Cafe Boheme. Food is good and my lactose intolerance was smoothly dealt with: service is good. Room is almost all wood and therefore a bit dark, live music was being performed in the bar area as we left. Loos very clean.
