Balans Soho Society - Review - Soho - London - The Infatuation

"At this point, Balans in Soho might as well be an institution and receive blue plaque status - it’s been around for ages and has been dishing out brunches and late night eats to the Soho after-hours community since time began. To be clear, the food is mostly deeply mediocre, but there’s a great neighbourhood atmosphere, and it’s a good spot to relax with a few friends and people watch. It’s also open until 5-6am, where it becomes an indispensable place to keep drinking and grab a plate of pasta." - David Paw

Where To Eat In Soho After 11pm

"Closing time: 5am every night (except Sundays) If restaurants could talk then we would pay good money to go to Balan’s explosive Ted Talk on Famous People Doing Stuff That Famous People Do. Their No. 60 venue (not to be confused with their even older No. 34 spot up the road) has been open since the early 90s and has been witness to everything from Amy Winehouse repeatedly attempting to smoke inside to this iconic lace-meets-deadly-jacket moment from Lady Gaga. These days it’s very much the go-to sophisticated LGBTQ+ date night spot and although the food can be a little hit or miss, you can’t beat it for a round of American pancakes or a big old burger at 4am on a weeknight. If a 5am curfew is too early a cut off point for you, then it’s worth knowing that their spot at No. 34 is open 24 hours a day." - heidi lauth beasley

🌟 A Wonderful Brunch Experience at Balans Soho No. 60 🌟 Yesterday, we were looking for a great brunch spot just after midday and stumbled upon Balans Soho No. 60 – and what a fantastic experience it turned out to be! Although we didn't have a reservation, the staff was incredibly accommodating and quickly found us a table. The breakfast/brunch menu offered a great selection, and we thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered. The food was delicious, with my favorite being the perfectly cooked Full English Breakfast. Everything was fresh and well-prepared – from the crispy bacon to the flavorful sausage, and the eggs cooked just right. What stood out the most was the exceptional service. After ordering, one of our friends decided they wanted to try a different dish. We asked if they could change the order, and without hesitation, they accommodated the request and swiftly made the change. This level of flexibility and customer service really impressed us and made the experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere at Balans Soho No. 60 is cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxed brunch in Soho. The vibrant setting, combined with excellent food and service, made for a perfect start to our afternoon. A huge shout out to the team at Balans Soho No. 60 for making our brunch so enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great brunch spot in Soho!

Where to begin… we wanted to have some bites w our drinks in a nice place. We found a nice place, but… Lobster hotdog 🌭 was like bread w ketchup and the bread wasn’t fresh. King prawn was well cooked but again it was like mix of oil and mayonnaise. You cannot get the flavor. Goat cheese salad 🥗 was the best on the table. However, it was lack of dressing and dry. All food is over-priced. Plus, optional service charge was inclusive w/o information. So, we had to deduct it. The waiters were around and pushy for us to order which was a bit stressful. They don’t give space for you to decide. Plus, the plates are way too big for the small tables. This is smt they need to adjust about the service.

So my friend took me here for coffee what a great find they do all sorts of dishes it having just eaten some dim sung nearby we were not going to have a main dish however I did fancy a dessert so took a look at the menu, I normally go for some form of lemon tart which they had however I was persuaded to go for the donuts so I ordered a waited to see if they were worth the accolade by the staff. I was not disappointed in fact probably the best donuts I’ve ever had in a restaurant.

I came here for an evening meal and it’s didn’t disappoint! Big shoutout to Richard who was lovely and made us feel right at home. Food was great, dessert was definitely the highlight- sticky toffee pudding it a must! Cocktail menu is also extensive and had some great options. Definitely recommend if you need an evening in SoHo

The service and atmosphere were great. My chicken tacos were boring. They didn’t have much flavor. The potatoes with seaweed butter were delicious and my companions loved the scallops.

Top eating and dining in London. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and food. Its rare these days that in a crowded restaurant one is serviced and checked up so frequently, eliminating wait completely. Big thanks to our waitor Michael. Will be back

The food was delicious ~ the crispy duck okonomiyaki is a must have!! We also tried the quesadillas and a big breakfast burrito, all of which satisfied every taste craving. The service was even better, Barry our waiter definitely made the visit much more enjoyable for us. I was happy to notice that all staff were taking their time to not only look after their customers on a professional level but also memorable and personal level, with many laughs and smiles from myself and those around me. Definitely recommend the experience.
