Bar Salsa! Soho Description
Book a table at Bar Salsa! Soho
Bar Salsa! Soho is featured in these Guides:
Located on Charing Cross Road near Leicester Square, Bar Salsa! Soho is committed to bringing some Latin American flair to the West End.
A colourful upstairs seating area and outdoor patio lead down to a cavernous lower level, with seductively dim lighting and a sombre colour scheme. Here, groups of friends can enjoy a thoroughly decent selection of tapas and platters before making their way to the dancefloor.
Salsa classes and soirées are a fixture at the venue, coupled with inhibition-destroying cocktail deals from its two main bars. The momentum builds steadily as the night wears on,
This is London's No.1 authentic Latin venue, bringing together under one roof all the colour, style and culture of Central and South America, using vibrant and contemporary décor, with live music, dance classes, dance shows, Latin nibbles and a selection of cocktails that will make it a difficult night to forget! All customers must be 18 or over.

“Terrible behavior and attitude of staff
This evening I was good mood and I came to SALSA SOHO in London for the latino lessons and later dance in the social. It was my day off which I have very rare. The security near the door asked me a document. I thought it was a joke, because I am 39 years old and in any places long time anyone ask me it. The staff near the door said that if I do not have a passport (ID), I will not enter the club. I explained that ID I do not have in general (I am not a UK citizen), and the passport I don't have everytime with me, because it is unsafe and many who can steal with personal belongings. I offered to show my passport copy in my phone and showed other documents with my name, surname. The staff told me that I will not go inside, it is not enought that I showed them. In any London place or other countries when I came for the dances lessons I didn't have this requiest.
I asken to speak with the manager of club and I had hope that he/she will understand this situation. The MANAGER LUISA (she presented herself like this) came and she began disrespectful, shout a raisen tone on me, that she would not let me into the club. I tried to explain that the public information about this evening event was not anywhere written that I have to have my passport with myself. She did not listen to me and said to disappear from here.
I was in shock how she treats me. She used the words "Fuck you", "go from here", etc. Who takes such people to work in public places ??? She doesn't know at least how to speak with clients, people. TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!! I will never come back there. ”

“I have been there twice now and the service and the food are terrible (microwaved nachos for instance). The "DJ" does not mix but plays random songs. The bar is understaffed and prices do not match the poor quality of the drinks. However there are no other Latin clubs nearby and I believe they abuse that fact. To make matters worse, they pick and choose who to challenge at the door for entrance, they do not respect bookings and the customer service on the phone is well non-existent. Nobody is responsible for anything.

“May '09 Went to a Hen Night at Bar Salsa. Had a fantastic night. Dance class was great fun. The whole atmosphere was vibrant & lively. Mesmerized by the expert Salsa dancers around me. Yes it was heaving and sweaty - but you need to get into the spirit and enjoy having a dance or two with people you don't know - some will even teach you to salsa! Food was Ok, service was slow but would go again if only for the dancing!”

“Went to Salsa last night and just wanted to warn all the girls, only go there if you dont mind being groped by every passing male (and follwed around the club) and you want the male population to be 40+. Also, you'll like it if you like the taste of sweat.”

“What a great place to spend the evening.
Start the night with some realy good Brazilian food followed buy a few cachaca cocktails and lively salsa danceing This place brings London alive at night the bar is great and the drinks flow without that up your own bum attitude of bar staff you get in some of the other west end bars.
If you just want to have a great night out eat drink and dance then give Salsa a try.”
