The Yard

Used to love coming here, they have put their beer prices up to an astronomical level. i do not expect to pay over £7 for a basic beer. yes you've been affected by covid but so have we. Other bars in the area haven't put their prices up.

Awful customer service.... Paid 50£ drinks and was with a friend. Asked for a glass of water when waitress made eye contact while dancing and ended up with a 5£ SPARKLING WATER FROM TAP WITH ADDED GAZ... When I dared mentioned there was a misunderstanding she took it away to throw it in the sink... and left ! Had to call her back for a regular glass of water which she half spilled on the counter and this time NO ICE NO LEMON WEDGE AND NO STRAW but DIRTY LOOKS ! Thank you so much young chubby girl from the bar upstairs... Complained to her about her un professionalism and all she could think of

Had an incredibly fun evening here with friends! Can get a bit busy at the bar but not an issue! Music selection was fun and ambience was great! Drinks are reasonable for London standards not the cheapest but expected.
Will be back!

Very good vibe and good music but the prices are high. Please clean the toilets, the smell was disgusting! 🤢

Fantastic place. I wanted a quiet bar I could sit and have a beer and a smoke for an hour alone and this was perfect. Super friendly staff and customers. Will be back next time I’m in the area.

The beer and atmosphere is great,but staff is cheating when you buying beer from the bar! They adding gratuity without your knowledge. Not nice.

What can I say? Outdoors. Sunshine. Booze. Music. Lovely staff. Any opportunity, I'd happily sit at this bar for a drink with friends.

It really depends on what night you go to this bar. When it gets crowded, it is too loud & the smoking area (balcony) feels dangerously full. Drinks are not expensive. Good for a pre-drink before you hit the town but not to spend the whole night.

Beware of thieves in this bar and other nearby bars in Soho. I visited the bar in April 2018 and met a couple of guys. We sat at a table in front of the bar and I ordered a round of drinks at the bar which I paid with my bank card. Later on that evening after leaving the bar with the two guys I noticed that my bank card was missing and I later found out £1,000 had been taken out of my account in a period of several minutes that evening. How the money was removed from my account without my password is quite a mystery to say the least and quite worrying. But I suggest to beware of people who

Nice vibe in this bar in the middle of Soho. A nice yard with a few tables, 2 floors ... busy in the evenings. The crowd is really nice. Easy to chat and have a drink. The staff is usually nice ... a really nice place for drinks.

One of the best outside seating places in SoHo; always enjoy my time!
Can be full of suburbian twinks on the weekend (which I find pretty annoying, kids in the big city totally turnt).
Recently tried their kitchen for a snack, pricey but let me tell you: they know how to handle and prepare their sausages! (We all knew I'd go there)
Drinks are ok, bartenders try to keep you not waiting that long.
Upstairs bar and patio (smoking) are usually not toooo packed, but the floors are sticky later at night (no, I am not going THERE!)

While in London for work and strolling through Soho with a friend, we stumbled upon the Yard Bar. The bright purple, neon sign threw us off a little bit, but the garden courtyard was calling our name. We easily found a table outside in a cozy corner and both noticed the eclectic groups of people gathered there for some pints. We immediately knew we were in the right place to enjoy the afternoon. The waiter was friendly, the people watching unmatched, and even the bar food we ordered was decent, but nothing to rave about (had to put something in our stomachs to stave off a 2pm bender!).

Although

I do love this place. Gets pretty over crowded but from staff to the customers drinking they are all up for a good laugh and chat. I love drinking in the courtyard which is upon entrance or up on the balcony. Drinks are reasonable priced, has ample space and an alternative to a normal pub. Toilets need a revamp and need more of them as on a Saturday night there's more of a queue trying to get to the toilets than the bar ;)

An upbeat, lively trendy bar located on Rupert Street taken over Soho (and myself) by storm with decently priced drinks and a fun atmosphere.

'The Yard' has got to be one of my favourite bars in Soho. Overly the last year or so, I have witnessed the customer intake of the bar absolutely sky rocket throughout this year and I can see why.

Once outside the bar, I can imagine anyone would want to venture in, the purple neon sign, black gates and trees visible outside (due to an alfresco styled garden) sure does make you want to go in. Once in, you have the choice of hanging out at the

Another great joint in London. Went here a few times on my trip to London. Great crowd, friendly service. I love the outdoor seating. Sigh* I miss this place!

I love the walkway through the courtyard gates through a white tunnel like walkway with twig like adornment covered in small blue lights, very Santa's grotto like at Xmas, Which opens out to a spacious courtyard with seating.
There is a nice downstairs bar & a smaller, more basic, bar upstairs, with a balcony popular with smokers, the view of the courtyard from there is lovely, but look up & straight ahead & the view is quite different, the back of grubby looking flats that need a good painting, which is a shame.
The prices are the Soho average, which is never cheap, but there

I used to go here a lot years ago but it feel out of favour.


I met friends here at the weekend and it's looking tired.


Normal drinks are expensive but happy hour is quite reasonable.


The Loft (the bit upstairs) opens in the evening and there is a wide selection of cocktails.


Happy hour enables you to pick two classic cocktails (the same ones) for the price of one.


Get there early to nab a sofa in the winter or a prime spot on the balcony.


It's a nice spot as most of it is outside (it is basically a back yard). It's just a shame it's just looking so tired.
