Great selection of juices, salads & waffles! Lovely place great for mums with little ones
Disco music and brunch. A bit unsettling at first but the food makes up for it. Good service.
This is my favourite place to get coffee in Stoke Newington. Filter coffee is available from beans from Climpsons, Monmouth and more, and the staff are always helpful. Say hi to Bruce the dog!
Great atmosphere. Food mixed, some great, some ok. Save room for dessert that's the highlight.
Best bread within miles. Also a great place for brunch. The Hackney Wild is a classic, but the Ciabatta is to die for.
The food here is amazing; combinations of ingredients that look odd on paper but go together sublimely. An interesting variety of entertainment downstairs as well.
Really nice place and excellent service. If you are tired of waiting to be served at Cat and Mutton come across the road and you'll be served pronto with a smile and nice Italian food.
Great Spot for a good cup of coffee + good vibe too, the deli is stocked to the brim with fresh delicious produce and pastries. Try the Portuguese custard and raspberry tart... Yummy!!
Toffee bread for dessert if it's on. If there's a tastier sweet anywhere I've yet to taste it
Get the Ribs roll at the Rib Man. Very good value for price, super tasty. Come early to hang out with the nice people, after 9pm it's full cheesy clubbers.
Love this night food market: Great location, food & tunes! Kimchim Special Cult Burger, a beer and a snog is a MUST!
Baby cinema on Tuesdays at 12 noon and 2 pm. Nice sofas to hang out on and yummy food brought to you.
Get a coffee and a bite to eat then sit in the sun. All while getting your bike repaired in the workshop right next door by the lovely James at a very competitive price :)
Lovely place to have a coffee by the canal when the sun is out :-)) food looks good. They sell ice cream!
Amazing coffee - creamy and good balance of milk:coffee. Awesome & friendly owners and staff are a delight. Olive oil cake is supreme!
Standard issue hipster coffee shop. The coffee itself is rather good, but the service is so bad, so painfully slow that it borders on incompetence. Prepare for a long wait, even if there's no queue.
Ladies - if you're broke, or just loving it, then hand over your bra or knickers for a free drink. Only you won't get it back as they hang them from the ceiling if you hadn't already noticed! Read more.
The best American style bar in London, no doubt! No matter what time of day you go in, the lights are low, the beer is flowing and the juke box is spitting out the tunes. A great night out! Read more.
Catch it at opening time (5pm-ish) for an empty roof terrace. Gents toilets are Grim with a capital G.
It isn't called the Dalston Superstore for nothing - hosting different clubnights through the week and offering cakes, coffee and wifi in the day...how could you say no?
The beer garden with plenty of seats, weekend barbeques, comfy sofas, great coffee, posh tented outdoor area and view over London Fields are all the things that makes Pub on the Park a great place. Read more.
It’s all about hot East London kids, music genres mixed like someone hit shuffle, Poundland prices and a night that you won’t forget. You’ll quickly understand why it gets so busy. Read more.
They will give you a FREE pizza with every drinks order! 9" for two people, 12" for three and over I think. Applies for full opening hours EVERY DAY! Wow...
Man it is killing there, great people, drinks and totally awesome fries with cheese :)
Tucked away beneath an old cinema sign in a former Chinese takeaway, Ruby's peeled-paint walls, mismatched furniture and flickering candlelight make for a decadent drinking den indeed. Read more.
Victorian styled drinking den with a cocktail menu of 5 great tasting drinks served in tin cups and milk bottles! Read more.
the juicy ribs are covered in a sweet sticky glaze and nicely charred. To offset the density of the meat, the ribs come with creamy coleslaw and tangy pickles. Read more.
If you ever look up "Where are the hipsters?", perhaps the first result would be book club! Relaxing atmosphere in the afternoons, party freak in the night. Ping Pong is a great +
Very hipster-y but lovely and filling food for not too bad cost wise. Worth checking out if you're in the area. Read more.
The book club gets very busy on Sat nights. After 9 you have to pay £5 entry. Plus you can't reserve tables for parties. Get there early.
THE cool place to have a follow-up in London. Eclectic jukebox, big food, ping-pong, knitting, free-wifi. Quintessentially Shoreditch. We love it! Read more.
"The Book Club has a typical ‘East London feel’ to it. We were struck by the quirky bareness of the place. It had furniture that were all odd and are a mixture of long wooden tables, desks and sofas." Read more.
Avoid looking like a deer in the headlights when you walk into the bathroom – be aware that the loos are unisex, so you’ll find boys and girls checking out themselves and each other in the mirror. Read more.
Try the Watermelon&Basil smash cocktail and DO NOT forget to go downstairs; always something arty exhibiting!
Awesome beer as usual for Brewdog. Go downstairs and through the painting for a truly unique night and excellent Hot Dogs!
Interesting selection of craft beers. Big fan of the jackhammer. If you want variety go for the 4 1/3's for £8 pricey but worth it.
Great selection of beer - but they only do half pints of Hoegaarden. Using a card? 0.50 charge regardless of total
occassionally the venue for lots of irritating trendies, it's a nice pub for the most part. and the food is great - especially the sunday lunches. best in the area that I've had.
Walk up to the expansive rooftop to find deckchairs, wrought-iron furniture and and benches filled with a sun-seeking crowd from the Shoreditch brigade. Read more.
Roof Top Film Club has their nightly outdoor film showings here, they are brilliant! Read more.
Don't make the usual mistake of ordering beer at the tiny main bar, do it at the back, Asahi pint beer for the same price of Tiger Bottle
While the venue has a hipster pedigree that verges on the intimidating you don’t have to wear thick rimmed glasses and an ironic cardigan to enjoy a drink and a movie on the glorious roof terrace. Read more.
Rooftop Film Club tickets sell out fast! Keep an eye on the website or join the email list for ticket sale dates. Show up early so you can grab front row spots on the folding director chairs. Read more.
Quite simply the best pub, garden, everythinig in Shoreditch. I'm quite biased after having spent the best part of 3 years having work breakfasts here but I don't care. Well deserved and fab staff. Read more.
Steve’s widow has visited McQueen’s and given it her seal of approval – she said he would have really ‘dug’ the place. Read more.
Play your cards right and you could be one of the chosen few invited up to the Jubjub Bar. Hidden behind a curtain - it's the stairway to cocktail Heaven Read more.
This place is quirky all over, so naturally they’ve carried it through to the toilets. Step through the wardrobe and into the loo, where the walls are covered from head to toe in old cassette tapes Read more.
Great themed bar of Alice in Wonderland. Check out the backroom for a chilled sitting area. Fantastic music too. Loved it! Could have extended the opening hour to 3 am instead of 1am though.
Some of the most inventive, delicious cocktails in Shoreditch. This place is even more amazing if you can get a membership key to the secret bar upstairs :)
Upstairs there’s a member’s-only Jubjub bar which houses a different mixologist host every week. Membership, while not guaranteed, is free! Make an appointment, check out then ask for an application. Read more.
Lovely atmosphere; perfect for an early dinner and a few cocktails. Take advantage of their happy hour (Monday-Friday 5pm-7pm; Saturday 6pm-8pm; All day Sunday).
They have monthly film screenings. Be warned: the screening times listed are purely advisory, and films will sometimes start significantly earlier with no warning given.
The place is beautiful, private rooms with victorian-inspired gin&cream bathtubs, nice small lab. Try the ketchup syrup with cheese, surprising and absolutely delicious. The cocktails are amazing.
Wacky selection of cocktails but the ones we had were a bit underwhelming. Cracking selection of whisky. Not often you see bar with Springbank CV! Sign of people who know their stuff!
If you’re with a small group, consider booking the Dram Shop, a private room centered on a cast iron bathtub and “honesty bar,” where partiers can help themselves to a selection of booze. Read more.
Try the Panacea cocktail, your tastebuds will be oh so very grateful!
