Lovely little sun trap. If you come when it's hot and sunny you will see waves of half naked gay men. And vests. Lots of vests.

A quaint little spot to sit with a coffee and the paper in the morning or fight for a patch of the grass at lunchtime in summer. Its both shabby and charming and thats a-okay for me!

Boaz Sachs

A surprisingly pretty square that's ideal for relaxing on a break from work. Dog owners can bring their pets and there is currently a ping pong table available

Great place to have lunch in the summer. Grab a falafel at the Berwick Street Market , a flat white at Nude Espresso and sit on the grass in the sun.

Jason Quarisa

Centrally located and easy to get to. Always has a lovely vibe and atmosphere. It can get a little dirty and grungy when it’s very full. Don’t feed the birds.

Look for Charles II in the fountain , the French Protestant Church of London & St Patrick's Catholic Church on the perimeter. – Green Guide Editor

Martin Jonasson

A nice little relaxed place in central London. Take with your lunch and eat here during the summer.

Paul Barton

HO was the cry at the start of the fox hunt which set off from Oxford Circus area (also used in Plymouth Ho and Sutton Ho). SoHo became so called as it's the area south of the Ho

If you need a break after a busy day of work, this is a great place to relax and take a walk. You can also check out the pretty gardener 's shed in the middle of this little serene park :-)

Hannah Parvaz

Grab an amorino ice cream and catch a spot in the sun. Closes really early though.

Jenny Stewart

Get there early on sunny lunch breaks, it gets super busy with London's 9-5ers catching some rays.

Rhammel Afflick

I do love Soho Square. Always has great bubbly atmosphere.

Mei Suen

Lovely gardens in the centre of Central London, just off busy Oxford Street, Tottenham Court Road end. Always some activities going on.

David Sulitzer

Cute little square. The garden is walled so you feel isolated. There's a great ambiance here after work.

Arvid Schneider

Great place to relax , if you find a spot on the grass.

Eric Deren

Be sure to check out the stairs leading down to the old WWII-era air-raid shelter under the Square... located on the west end of the park .

Check out the Blue Plaque dedicated to Jamaican nurse Mary Seacole (who spent time in the Crimea at the same time as Florence Nightingale), at 14 Soho Square.

Kevin Dulin

Very dirty and overcrowded

Janet Cheung

Nice to sit here after a meal and just people watch ! Not really a park but more of a little area with lots of benches .

HISTORY UK

‘Soho’ is thought to come from the hunting and battle cry of the Duke of Monmouth, a local landlord. He used it at the Battle of Sedgemoor where he was defeated in 1685, and later executed.

Bhavani Esapathi

Really nice plan to sit and read a book and stay close to the hustle and bustle of London Town ...

Kevin McCulley

A small but busy spot in the centre of Soho. Great for a picnic .

Pauline H

RIP Soho. The corrupt people at Westminster Council, backed by the Metropolitan Police and so-called Queen of Soho Fawn, is slowly destroying Soho. For fun, look towards the East and South East of Ldn

Toby Sharpe

Nice bit of green space. There's an outdoor table tennis table , would have been fun but no ping pong balls. Don't forget yours if you want to play!

It's nice to visit but don't visit it on the weekend as it gets very crowded since the place isn't that large

Great square, love the vibe. Very relaxed.

I remember this square with love, but last time I was there, I was disappointed with it. A lot of strange people

Nice green space with a bit of a vibe when the weather's nice.

Don't feed the pigeons ! One will turn into a hundred with every bit of pasta you let fall on the floor!

Always busy and good for people watching on a sunny day

You'll find this place in one of two states : 'dusty' or 'muddy'. Somewhere in between would be best...

Best park/square in London. Full of freaks and uniques. Always good for people watching .
