Freud Bar

Below the pavement of Shaftesbury Avenue, at the top of Monmouth Street, down a flight of steps into a high-ceilinged basement, the Freud café has been serving legendary cocktails and much else besides since 1986. During the day there are delicious soups, salads and sandwiches, freshly made on the premises, together with free newspapers, every kind of coffee and just about everything else you might want to relax or chill out. In the evening it is alive with excitement and friends meeting friends.
