SERVING UP SUMMER

Nothing says summer quite like a few rounds of tennis on a warm, clear day – so fingers crossed the British weather is in our favour across 29–30 July, when we’re hosting our very first tennis tournament at Babington House. e Soho Grand Slam, in partnership with Lacoste, will see the grounds of our Somerset country retreat taken over by a host of activities, from the tournament itself (which is open to all members), to a wide range of tennis-related games and competitions for all age groups. New to the game? We’ve got you covered, with a host of top coaches on hand, including Black Girls Tennis Club – a group that aims to encourage Black women and girls to learn more about tennis and participate in the sport – who are providing training sessions across the weekend. And if spectating is more your thing, you’re in luck: there will also be a series of talks with major names from the world of tennis, as well as some summery new food and drink options for you to soak in the atmosphere (and hopefully that great weather).

Sunday Service In Barcelona

Imagine a space with an endless supply of delicious Italian food: think handmade pasta, cured meats, fresh seafood, wood-fired oven pizzas, salads and sides and more desserts than you can fit onto one plate – and that’s just the beginning. Sounds too good to be true? Welcome to the Sunday Feast, held every week at Cecconi’s Barcelona, which can be found on the ground floor of the city’s Soho House, right on the coast. For €55, or €50 for Soho House members, you’ll have access to this wide array of dishes between 12–5pm. For the occasion, Cecconi’s even extends its selection of fine wines, so you’ll find the right drink to pair with every part of your meal. We’ll see you there next Sunday.

The Soho House Way To Travel

At Soho House, we have Houses with Bedrooms across the world, from Mykonos to Mumbai. While you’re visiting, dinner in our clubs and drinks on our roo ops and patios is a given, but the beauty of our Houses’ central locations, in the coolest neighbourhoods, means that they make the perfect base from which to explore.

at’s where the new Soho House City Guides come in – created by members, for members, in partnership with Antler. You’ll find these guides in the bedrooms of our Houses in LA, London, New York, Rome and Berlin, packed with tips on the best places to eat, drink, shop and immerse yourself in culture. We’ve consulted with members from each city who are experts in art, architecture, food and more, for truly local insights that you won't find anywhere else.

From October, it will o er six floors of co-working space, meeting rooms and private o ices, plus a recording studio, kitchen areas, a lounge and dedicated events.

Upgrade Your 9 To 5 Back To Nature

As part of our social responsibility and sustainability programme House Foundations, Soho Farmhouse is now home to a new forest – a space that allows guests to immerse themselves in nature while also giving back to the surroundings. e 1800 sq m reforesting project (the same size as the entire floor space of Soho House Copenhagen) will improve soil and water quality, absorb carbon and provide a habitat for local wildlife. As the forest matures, it will also play host to a series of holistic member events. e ultimate antidote to city life.
