  • Great for fine wines
  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
We are a natural wine bar and restaurant in the heart of Soho - we change our menu weekly and cook with the seasons using the best ingredients the season has to offer. Our menu is an eclectic array of dishes that we're either in the mood to eat or that take inspiration from a dish we've enjoyed somewhere along our journey. Whatever it is, we aim for it to always be a combination of simple cooking and delicious flavours.. This keeps us excited, and what we do at Ducksoup fresh and lively.

We search out characterful wines for our wine list and work with a small number of suppliers who source well-made, honest natural and biodynamic wines from producers whose wine-making practices are carried out with love and care. We change our wine list by the glass as frequently as our food menu so that you (and we) get to enjoy new and interesting wines.

    Food was decent. Atmosphere was great. Seating area was tiny. Staff was friendly but didn’t know the menu well. Overall, for £50+ per head, the level of service could be improved. Nice spot to have a drink though.

    Small and intimate setting , very near Chinatown . For 3 of we chose a couple of large , as well as four small plates from the menu. Our table , whilst a little on the small side , was laden with a great selection of dishes from rabbit to Mackerel to Bavette. Thank you

    We liked the food and the wine was alright, but we would have liked some more information on the wines and a more attentive service. Our booking was at 20:30 and it seemed like it just needed to be done as quickly as possible - if that’s the case I don’t think it should be possible to book a late table. Worst part was the experience of sitting in the bar counter, where there was simply not enough room to be sitting comfortably. Waiters and other guests had a hard time passing behind us and the ‘table’ was too far away making it very hard to eat without making a mess. We’ve eaten at many restaurants with kitchen counters before but this one unfortunately ruined the experience for us. Would only book again if there was room at a regular table and at another time of the evening.

    Once again an amazing experience from start to finish thanks to the incredible food, and to Mark our waiter who guided us expertly through the food and wine menu.

    Lovely small plates. Wine choice does not match and needs to be bigger
