Hoppers London Soho is the original branch of the popular Hoppers group, inspired by Sri Lanka's village toddy shops. It's known for its vibrant and cozy atmosphere, offering authentic Sri Lankan and South Indian cuisine in the heart of London's Soho.
Customers consistently praise the delicious, authentic, and flavorful (often spicy) food, highlighting dishes like the Black Pork Curry and Chilli Cheese Dosa. Service is frequently described as excellent, friendly, and attentive, even on busy nights. The ambiance is noted as vibrant, lively, and cozy, making it suitable for both casual visits and nights out with friends. Portions are considered generous, and the cocktails are highly rated.
Hoppers Soho is the first location of the Hoppers London restaurant group, which has since expanded to other areas like Marylebone and King's Cross. The menu is complemented by a tropical drinks list, including arrack, a traditional Sri Lankan spirit.
The restaurant maintains a lively atmosphere, even on busy nights like Fridays, suggesting it's a good spot for an energetic dinner. It's suitable for casual evenings or nights out with friends.
