French House, Soho

My favourite pub/wine bar in London. I foun this gem some years ago on my annual visit to the UK from Australia. A bonus is one of the staff, Dwayne is an Aussie, full of local knowledge, great tips for which shows to go and see. Great wine list by the glass there, perfect for pre-theatre drinks, a glass of champers and a red ned. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. It does get crowded but that's the price for being a friendly, atmospheric and cosy bar. I'm brining friends with me in June and I know they will love it. Full of character. While the bar staff are casual, that's what I like being an Aussie, no pretensions here. An oasis in the heart of Soho.
