EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the heart of Soho, London, in the year 1970, showcases a vibrant and eclectic scene on Greek Street. The image, looking down Manette Street (formerly Rose Street), reveals two iconic establishments that once graced this bustling area: The Pillars of Hercules public house on the right and Baileys restaurant to the left. The Pillars of Hercules, a traditional English pub, is named after the mythological pillars that marked the ancient Greek and Roman belief of the end of the known world. The pub's ornate signage, featuring the pillars and a ship, stands proudly against a backdrop of red brick buildings. The warm glow emanating from the pub's windows suggests a cozy and inviting atmosphere, where locals and visitors alike could gather for a pint and a hearty conversation. Across the street, Baileys restaurant, with its distinctive blue and white signage, adds a touch of the Mediterranean to the scene. This Greek and Mediterranean eatery would have offered a taste of exotic flavors and culinary delights to the discerning palates of Soho's denizens. The restaurant's open windows reveal a bustling kitchen, where chefs likely prepared fresh dishes for the eager patrons. This photograph not only captures the essence of Soho's rich cultural heritage but also serves as a snapshot of a bygone era. The Pillars of Hercules and Baileys, with their unique charm and character, contributed significantly to the area's vibrant social scene, making Greek Street a must-visit destination for food and drink lovers in the 1970s.
