Noble Rot Soho is a wine bar and restaurant at 2 Greek Street in Soho. It occupies the former Gay Hussar, a celebrated dining room once associated with writers, artists and generations of political figures. Restored period details and new artwork preserve that history while giving the building the intimate, slightly bohemian atmosphere associated with Noble Rot.
The kitchen serves elegant Franglais food designed to complement wine. Seasonal vegetables, seafood, terrines and carefully cooked meat appear across concise bar and restaurant menus, with ingredients allowed to speak clearly rather than being overworked. A set lunch offers a particularly accessible way to experience the cooking through several courses.
Roast chicken with morels, Vin Jaune sauce and pilaf rice is the enduring Soho signature, intended for sharing and rooted in the cooking of France's Jura region. Other dishes change with the market and retain subtle references to the building's Hungarian past. Desserts and cheese continue the same balance of comfort, precision and strong flavour.
Wine is as important as the food, ranging from excellent value glasses to mature bottles from renowned estates. The list encourages discovery across classic regions and less familiar producers, with knowledgeable guidance available without formality. Bar seating, a private dining room and the main restaurant give visitors several ways to enjoy this distinctive combination of serious wine and generous cooking.
