Blitz-Era Immersion in Soho's Heart

Nestled in the bustling Carnaby district, Cahoots recreates a disused tube station from World War II, complete with northbound and southbound platforms, vintage carriages, and air raid sandbags. The space evokes the spirit of wartime London, where civilians sought refuge underground amid doodlebug sirens and rationing. Dim lighting casts shadows on battered suitcases and period posters, while the air hums with big band echoes.

Vintage Ticket Hall Welcome

Enter via the ground-level Ticket Hall, dominated by a massive railway clock and walls papered in faded timetables and adverts. This nods to the venue's past as a shelter, setting the stage for deeper exploration. High-top tables invite lingering over menus styled as wartime newspapers, listing cocktails with cheeky Blitz-inspired names.

Underground Carriage Escapades

Descend to the Underground platform, where a full-scale 1940s tube carriage awaits. Bunk beds line the walls, and platforms buzz with recreated authenticity. Here, guests sip grog mixes and punch bowls amid the clatter of faux train announcements, capturing the thrill of illicit wartime reunions in hidden depths.

Control Room Speakeasy Secrets

Venture further to the Control Room, a hedonistic speakeasy pulsing with live music. Tangled wires, pressure gauges, and flashing lights adorn the walls, piled with leather luggage. This is where late-night jazz swings, dancers jive, and cocktails flow from a bar evoking underground command posts during blackouts.

Cocktail Rations and Theatrics

Drinks arrive via pneumatic tubes or in teacups, blending historical flair with modern mixology—think gin with chamomile tea or rum with fig cream. Shared punch bowls like Punchadilly Circus serve crowds, while rations such as black pudding sausage rolls and steak pies complement the era's hearty fare. Every sip and bite reinforces the narrative of resilience and revelry.
