Refuel Bar at the Soho Hotel

The bar at the Soho Hotel is unlikely to woo fans of minimalist design: Refuel’s busy look includes a Rousseau-esque mural that celebrates happy motoring – a nod to the site’s former life as a multi-storey car park. Ice buckets atop the bar’s handsome zinc counter house class acts such as Perrier Jouet Belle Epoque, Krug Rose, Ruinart Blanc de Blancs & blingy rappers’ delight, Cristal. Continental lagers join a stellar list of wines that includes a selection of increasingly fashionable dessert wines (Muscat de Rivesaltes Chateau Rombeau 2003 & an interesting Royal Tokaji). Mocktails are available for designated drivers, while Italian & Moroccan sharing platters serve to refuel those in for the longer haul.
