Black Tap brings award-winning craft burgers to Soho

Black Tap Soho is becoming a must-experience dining destination in London’s bustling West End. The flagship Soho location beneath the landmark Piccadilly Lights – a two-story, 5,000-square-foot restaurant and events venue, offers the full range of gourmet Black Tap burgers, the iconic CrazyShake® milkshake lineup, and patio dining in a vibrant, street-art-inspired space that reflects its downtown New York City and hip-hop roots. The restaurant has also been granted a coveted late-night license and is the ideal spot for post-workday meetups and after-hours dining.    

“London has truly embraced Black Tap, and we’re thrilled to have opened our biggest location yet in the heart of the West End,” says Black Tap Co-Founder Julie Mulligan. “With its mix of tourists, local businesses, and nightlife, this neighbourhood is the perfect home for our unique approach to burgers and shakes in a fun and immersive environment.”
