Soho Radio is an independent online radio station based in Soho, London. It was created in 2014 by Adrian Meehan, a musician and studio owner, to showcase Soho's vibrant and diverse culture.

They broadcast live from a property on Great Windmill Street with a small coffee and merchandise shop in the front and the on-air DJ visible through glass in the rear; the location was chosen in part to allow passers-by to see the DJs at work.

Live shows are streamed from their website; archived shows are released on Mixcloud.

On the 8th November 2016, Soho Radio was named the World’s Best Internet Radio Station in the Online Radio Awards.
