Soma

A Strokes song, a happy-happy drug that pacifies the people in Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and now, a late night boozer in Soho, Soma is Rik Campbell and Will Bowlby of Indian-inspired mini chain Kricket's first foray into the bar world. Soma has a tasty 3am licence, which makes sense seeing as it’s named after the Hindu god of the moon. With an epic nine metre-long hand-finished stainless steel bar – perfect for either draping yourself over or getting your all important 2.55am last orders in – Soma has space for 23 people. Drinks are inspired by the Indian subcontinent and neighbouring countries, meaning a cocktail menu that’s more than basic martinis and margs. Instead there's fun twists on the classics, including a gooseberry chaat Margarita, a savoury pickled mooli Martini and a coconut and jaggery Old Fashioned.
