• Continue along Old Compton Street to where it hits Wardour Street (with a string of en-
ticing restaurants just to the right). Crossing Wardour, Old Compton squeezes down into
a narrow alley (Tisbury Court). Penetrate this sleazy passage of sex shows and blue-video
shops, tolerate the barkers' raunchy come-ons, then jog a half-block right and turn left on
Brewer Street.
Brewer Street: Sleaze, Porn Shops, and Prostitutes
Soho was a bordello zone in the 19th century. A bit of that survives today in this area. Sex
shops, video arcades, and prostitution mingle with upscale restaurants here in west Soho.
While it's illegal in Britain to sell sex on the street, well-advertised “models” entertain
(profitably) in their tiny apartments. Berwick Street hosts a daily produce market.
