The French House, Soho
Pub Landmark and historical place Bar
The French House is a Grade II listed pub and dining room at 49 Dean Street, Soho, London. It was previously known as the York Minster, but was informally called "the French pub" or "the French house" by its regulars. It sells more Ricard than anywhere else in Britain and only serves beer in half-pints, except on April the first, when a recent custom has been that Suggs serves the first pint of the day. Read more

Reports of "The death of Soho" are greatly exaggerated. Soho is alive and well and The French House is its beating heart. M x

A wonder place to spend a quiet afternoon. Don't ask for a pint and don't use your phone. Otherwise, just relax and enjoy!

We love The French House - have been numerous times and although it's always busy the atmosphere is great. Our favoured place for drinks in Soho!

One of those places you don't want to tell too many people about- authentic people and a Gallic oasis in the maelstrom of London!
