1995: 40 Greek Street, Soho
It all began in 1995 when Nick Jones, founder of a
small brasserie named Café Boheme, received an
offer to acquire the space above his restaurants.
The restaurant's upstairs spaces were accessed
through a small door around the corner from
Café Boheme. This small door to the rooms of
the townhouse inspired Nick to transform it into a
private club for local artists and celebrities, which
later became the favourite gathering place for the
restaurant’s favourite regulars.

This Georgian house in London’s Soho, therefore
Nick named it Soho House. If you’ve noticed the
simple yet classy logo on Soho House, it actually
reflects the layout of Nick’s first space — three
floors across three interconnecting houses.
