JOIN SOMA TODAY
SOMA is a modern minimalistic take on the basement speakeasy cocktail bar, influenced by the Indian subcontinent & beyond. SOMA Canary Wharf is cool, darkly mysterious and holds space for 36 people around its huge steel bar as well as a separate lounge known as the red room.
THE GROUP
Kricket is a collection of modern Indian restaurants that combine British ingredients with the flavours and aromas of India. Having started life in a 20-seater shipping container at Pop Brixton, Kricket now operates permanent locations in Brixton, Canary Wharf, Shoreditch and Soho, alongside SOMA Soho. The group is looking to grow further in London and internationally.
Recognised as one of The Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2025, Kricket is proud to be a progressive, people-focused hospitality group. With exciting plans for growth across London and internationally, this is a fantastic time to join our journey! We believe in a culture that promotes inclusivity and respect- everyone is welcome.
