Soho has a history of sex and scandal - hey, it’s one of the reasons we love this sassy side of central London - but sometimes you want a slice of chic to lead you from day to night. For times like this, Nessa has you covered. Open until 1am from Thursday to Saturday, this vibey lounge bar is sure to serve up the fun you’re looking for. 

Located just where the bustle of Piccadilly becomes the buzz of Soho, this is one sleek spot that promises to tempt you from afternoon aperitifs to late-night boogying. In the daytime, the warm hues and soft furnishings are ideal for long lunches and coffee breaks, whilst the massive windows mean not only is Nessa perfect for people watching but it also captures that special, golden evening glow which makes everyone look good (tip - mark it down as an ideal date spot). When the lights dim you can look forward to weekly live music nights that bring everything from jazz to rock and pop to the party. 

The cocktail list is easy to navigate and mostly consists of creative twists on favourite classics. Margarita lovers will go mad for the As It Was made with tequila, green apple liqueur, green strawberry and mint, whilst you can’t beat the Boho Negroni for their unique take on the classic aperitif - Nessa’s version incorporates nectarine and saffron, FYI. Bar snacks are also banging - we particularly recommend the gooey-in-the-middle cheese croquettes and the BBQ crisps. Forget scrambling for a packet of Walkers, these babies gonna change your grazing game. Nessa - it's a bit naughty, very nice, and that's why it'll fit right in amongst the Soho stalwarts.
