  • From my guide, updated January 2024.

Toad Hall epitomizes the dive-bar experience, ideal for an affordable night out with a pool table, brick walls, and a wall adorned with numerous photos. As one of the best bars in SoHo, it attracts a diverse local crowd, fostering a homely atmosphere where bartenders and regulars share stories.

Toad Hall, known for its casual and laid-back vibe, is perfect for those looking to unwind. Evenings can get lively with locals enjoying the relatively inexpensive drinks, featuring classic cocktails and beer. However, don’t expect food; plan your dinner before or after visiting.

Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
