Soho House is just silly now, I literally know of law firms handing memberships out as an employment perk.

So much for being a cool place for creative folks, now they just let everybody in.

Also, at least in London the clubs simply suck. 0 atmosphere, even Annabel’s with it’s older crowd and their sugar babes is much more fun.




I mean, lawyers and creative folk aren't mutually exclusive. Most of the time when lawyers are criticised in the media it's for their "creativity".

Surely one of the benefits of being in a club like this is that you get to meet people outside your circle, people who aren't exactly like you. If you want a programmer-only social club, could you not just hang out at the office?


The whole point of Soho house was to be a place for people working in creative industries. Now that everyone can get in, they’re just boring restaurants with mediocre-at-best food.
