Soho House

Visiting the UK from Singapore and made the trip down from St.Andrews to made a special visit to the museum only to find out on arrival it is closed. As a Fellow of the Lunar Society I had planned for months to pay a visit to this historic house and was very much looking forward to exploring what was on offer. UPDATE YOUR TIME ON GOOGLE.

Sadly closed although being told by the info people at the library it would be open today. Been trying to visit since before covid times. As visiting from australia. Sad such wonderful local history blocked. Told because of council debt of millions

Lovely , quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Volunteers were very knowledgeable and I learn about many facts regarding Soho house. There were a tall gentleman with grey hair and a lady with a beautiful flower cord over the hair and they tell us different interesting things about Lunar society , about Birmingham in that time. That make me feel proud of the city I live in.The museum looks great and take us in 17th-18th century. In every room were panels where you can read about what that room shown and other few important informations. Museum are laying on ground and first floor where you can reach by using the stairs or using the lift. On the other wing by the house is a Cafe where you can have a ground coffee,tea, cakes, fruits, drinks. You can serve it in or out in the little garden. Also, anyone can enjoying doing some crafts while having a hit/cold drink. There is a little garden and also parking, including for disabled people. Despite that Soho House is located by Soho road which is a very busy road there was so much quietness and peaceful. I couldnt believe I'm just by the main road and the sounds can penetrate the peaceful and relaxing atmosphere here. I would definitely be back soon and spend more time here.

Had a lovely picnic last Sunday. We set off Handsworth choir sang well. An orchestra entertained us while we are. There was arty crafty stuff going on and entrance to the house was free, it was great meeting friends. There was a lovely cake for the 100th anniversary of the civic society. We lazed on the grass, watched people play croquet, dribbling football, having a good time. We didn't go in the hall but some of the guys came out in costume. It's strange that in the way there we asked people who didn't know where it was. They need to leaflet
