Noble Rot Soho is set in the former site of the Gay Hussar on Greek St, once notorious as the lair of many left-wing politicians. British Prime Ministers Clement Atlee, Gordon Brown and Tony Blair have all dined here, and the latter’s Director of Communications, Alastair Campbell, was even rumoured to have bugged the ground floor dining room for intelligence.

Today the building’s gorgeous period features have been preserved and renovated, and Martin Rowson, the Guardian’s acerbic political cartoonist, has painted triptychs celebrating the restaurant's past and present customers in all their louche glory.

Noble Rot Soho’s menu is created by executive chef Adam Wood and head chef Áron Stigmon, with consultant chef Stephen Harris of the Sportsman in Seasalter. Now with a Hungarian cook back on the pass, it includes subtle references to The Gay Hussar’s (the building's legendary former incarnation) past and, like all Noble Rot restaurants, prioritises cooking delicious dishes that complement the world’s greatest wines. It features the most life-enhancing roast chicken with morels and vin jaune sauce to be found this side of France’s Jura mountains. Noble Rot Soho is simple, homely dining at its best.

Noble Rot Soho’s private dining room is on the second floor of our Greek St townhouse, and has been the historic setting of many Labour party strategy meetings and clandestine trysts over the years.

The room accommodates up to ten rotters (we offer a la carte dining for up to six, and a reduced a la carte menu for seven to ten). There are two sittings per day: lunch from 12pm until 5pm, and dinner from 6pm until 11pm.

Reservations for both lunch and dinner have a minimum spend of £500, excluding discretionary service charge. A deposit of £250 is required to make a private dining room reservation. We kindly ask that any cancellation to your reservation in the private dining room be made no less than 2 weeks prior. After this time, the deposit will be non-refundable. The private dining room can be booked up to 3 months in advance.
