The story
At the south end of Holmgatan, SOHO has become a clear meeting place in Malmö. The name hints at the neighbourhood, but it could just as well stand for Social Home. Here, the local pub and a sophisticated cocktail destination converge in a scene-rich, charged environment.
The atmosphere is enveloping: dark-red walls, floating parasols, and a constantly blooming cherry tree create a space that feels both thoughtfully designed and warmly inviting. It is a place where you can settle in for a relaxed evening or a lively night out.
SOHO’s kitchen focuses on Asian cuisine, bringing bold flavours and refined techniques to the table. The menu, available for both dining in and takeaway, reflects a modern approach to shared plates and vibrant dishes. While the specific offerings change with the seasons, the culinary direction is clear and confident.
The drinks programme matches the ambition of the food, with a carefully curated selection of cocktails that complement the Asian-inspired menu. The bar is a destination in its own right, drawing a crowd that appreciates both craft and conviviality.
Recognised by the White Guide at the Fine level for 2026, SOHO has established itself as a standout in Malmö’s dining scene. The guide praises its ability to blend a local pub feel with a cocktail bar’s energy, all within a setting that is as memorable as the food and drink.
