EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the exterior of De Hems, a beloved Dutch restaurant, oyster bar, saloon bar, and grotto located on Macclesfield Street in the vibrant Soho neighborhood of London. Dating back to 1947, De Hems has long been a cherished institution for both locals and visitors alike, offering a taste of the Netherlands in the heart of the city. The photograph reveals the intricate details of the building's facade, with its distinctive Dutch gable and ornate brickwork. The large, arched windows of the ground floor provide a glimpse into the cozy interior, where patrons can be seen enjoying oysters and drinks at the bar. The saloon bar, with its dark wood paneling and red velvet seats, exudes an air of intimacy and sophistication. The grotto, a unique feature of De Hems, is also visible in the photograph. This subterranean space, adorned with stalactites and stalagmites, offers a charming and atmospheric setting for private dining or special occasions. The photograph transports us back to the 1940s, a time when Soho was known for its bohemian and artistic community. De Hems, with its authentic Dutch atmosphere and welcoming ambiance, was a beloved gathering place for artists, writers, and musicians, who would often be found congregating at the bar or in the grotto. Today, De Hems continues to thrive as a beloved institution in Soho, attracting visitors from around the world who seek a taste of its unique charm and history. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that can be found in the streets of London, and the enduring allure of a good meal and a good story.
