My visit to Soho Square was unlike any other. While strolling through the square's tranquil paths, I swear I saw the ghosts of Freddie Mercury, David Bowie, and Elton John! Now, I'm not one for the paranormal, but there's something undeniably magical about this square that seems to attract larger-than-life characters, both living and...well, not-so-living. Perhaps it's the echo of their music that lingers in the air, or the creative spirit that permeates the very stones.

Loved the garden how there are many people just hanging out there. But the weed smell was too strong in some places which made it less fun. I loved the art around the park.

Ideal place to sit back and relax in the sunshine on a hectic visit to the West End.

Nice little park to sit in and eat some Chin Chin ice cream. It's not big and the benches are limited, but sitting on the grass is also nice. The surrounding area has a very 'London' like vibe, so it's a nice area for tourists to take a break in.

Also, ping pong tables, which is always a plus :))

Very nice place for taking a break from busy life or just coming during nice weather to lie down on the grass and read books or spend time on the phone. Another option is to sit down at the bank, chat with friends or do whatever you want to do. Strongly recommend it for individuals and families too.

This garden has easy access from the road through both by walk, bus, train and car. Though it is not a very big area but it has its own unique style and charecter. The environment is very lovely and calm. It is suitable for all age groups and dogs. The entire place is having new seasonal flower bloom, specially tulip. There are lots of rubbish bin and pet litter boxes. There are lots of food and shopping places nearby. Enjoy 😊

Delightful square in Soho with loads of benches and grass as well as plants and flowers along with a quirky little building, a statue and a whole lot of history to read about.

Was sunny when I went with plenty of space to sit on benches or on the grass to catch some rays.

Saw dogs and had my own but saw sign on way out that said no dogs, I don't see where dog owners are supposed to go if they are not officially allowed here

Soho Square Gardens is a small but popular park located in the heart of Soho, London. It is a wonderful place to relax and escape the hustle and bustle of the city.

The gardens are a popular spot for gays, and there are often street performers and musicians in the square. There are also a few benches where you can sit and relax.
