Soho Free House, George Town

The Free House/Penthouse, kicking it since 2013, is like a second home for its loyal crew – the go-to spot on the island for ditching the daily grind, catching up with pals, and grabbing a quick bite. The team at Soho Free House swears by their revamped menu, promising top-notch grub without draining your wallet.

Inside, it's cool and spacious, with both indoor and outdoor spots to relax. Think cozy rustic vibes, complete with a brick wall on one side and some artsy decor on the other, featuring a few framed photos. Take your pick from a variety of seating options: tall wooden tables with stools or classic square tables and chairs.

They've got the tunes covered, usually some smooth jazz vibes, but it all depends on who's DJ-ing that day. And hey, there's a pool table if you're up for a game. Weekends are prime time here – kick back with your buddies, catch a soccer match, and enjoy a cold pint.
