Jazz After Dark is an intimate restaurant, cocktail bar and live music club at 9 Greek Street in Soho. Open since 1985, it brings dinner and drinks together with jazz, blues, funk, soul and Latin performances late into the night. Resident artist Sam Shaker also displays portraits in the venue, giving the compact room the feel of a music club and gallery in one.
Tapas and bar snacks provide flexible choices for sharing before the musicians begin. Hummus and pitta, crisp bites, chips and vegetarian plates work well alongside a first round of drinks. The smaller dishes let guests build an informal meal at the table without losing the focus on conversation and the live performance.
Larger options cover burgers, traditional fish and chips and familiar continental house specials. Steak frites and a Spanish mixed grill provide more substantial alternatives, while additional vegetarian dishes give non meat eaters a route through the menu. The straightforward cooking suits an evening where food, drinks and music are all part of the same experience.
Desserts bring a sweet finish before the later sets, and the bar serves wine, champagne, beer and a broad cocktail selection. Espresso Martini, Pornstar Martini and Mojito sit among the venue’s best known serves, with cocktails also available in sharing jugs. Live music generally starts later in the evening and a separate admission charge can apply, so the meal naturally leads into a full night at the club.
