Acoustic Brasserie in Hackney

this is my favourite place to eat in Stoke newington. the food is mouthwateringly delicious! the atmosphere is very welcoming and warm. the service is excellent - I frequent here so it's been lovely to build a friendly connection with the staff here too! massive shout out to Aiden who took care of my sister and I today, 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾 restaurant is also very family friendly, I've come to eat here with my toddler since they were a newborn and we always have a great experience! my favourite things on the menu for breakfast / brunch / lunch; - PANCAKES. (the best pancakes you'll ever have, berry classic is a strong choice) - any of the vegan breakfast options - salmon bennies - calamari - ravioli - halloumi burger get into the Acoustic !! you won't be disappointed:)

Every time I fly from Ireland to London, this is my first call. Fabulous food, generous portions and always a great ambience.

Loved everything! The food was amazing, the service was lovely and the place is beautiful. Loved everything about it!!

It’s not my neighbourhood, but this is a great local place to eat with delicious, healthy, freshly prepared food and lots of vegetarian options. Lovely wines and really good, personal service - our waiter warned us we were ordering too many starters and I appreciate that. Even so, I couldn’t finish my meal - wish I’d asked for a takeout box as I saw others doing as it was too good to waste. Will be back for sure!

Set right in the heart of Stoke Newington, this restaurant is a real gem. A warm welcome & a huge delicious looking menu, made choosing our food quite tricky because there were so many lovely sounding dishes! We shared a gorgeous bottle of wine (& after a small incident that was dealt with quickly & efficiently with much apologising!) , & a superb bowl of olives & artichokes. The mains weren’t rushed out, so we we felt lovely & relaxed & the food was very tasty. And the best bit was the fact our eldest son paid for it all!

Excellent breakfast and friendly engaging staff. The scrambled eggs were lovely and the pancakes were great but too much to eat!

Would highly recommend the Acoustic - went with my lovely girlfriend on a rainy Sunday and were treated exceptionally by Emil. Five Star.

Lovely spot! Delicious food, fantastic service (our waiter Emil was brilliant), and great atmosphere. Would 100% recommend.

All round excellent food and service. The prices were reasonable and great portion sizes. The owner was also so lovely and accommodating. Really recommend this place, will definitely be going back.

Really nice place, good service and nice food. I had the tuna steak which was very tasty, all other dishes were very enjoyable

I had food delivered and its wasn't nice at all. Eggs and bacon was undercooked and pancakes was burnt

We ordered two scrambled eggs dishes - Eggs were hardly scrambled and therefor unevenly cooked. The worst part was that they were cold - not even room temp, but cold. Waited for almost half hour for waiter to give us our bill, finally got him and asked for bill - he ignored us and carried on with other items. Another twenty minutes to just get the bill. Not a great experience - wouldn't recommend.

A return visit as we were back in Stoke Newington. Greeted by the lovely Giovanni, he had served us during our previous visit. Again he was very attentive as was the lady waitress, sorry didn't get her name. Party of 4, our order 2 seabass, prawns and a salad. All food beautifully presented and delicious. Service excellent. We had a birthday boy in our party, Giovanni and our waitress had a few surprises for him and made his birthday dinner very special. Thank you again Giovanni, we will be back to see you again when we're back in Stoke Newington 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

So pleased the Indian restaurant down the road couldn't accommodate us (a family party of 7) because we discovered Acoustic. It was fabulous. A rich menu derived from all over the Med. Many vegetarian options too. I had the lamb skewers with roasted med veg and rice with a lovely chilli salsa. Great! Others had the fish (sea bass) stuffed courgette flowers, olives, hummus (fantastic), and the youngsters had their own special menu to choose from which they loved. From starters through mains to dessert this place is perfect. The service is also outstanding, attentive, friendly and professional. We felt every need was accommodated and there was a lovely buzz and vibe to the ambience of the restaurant. Cannot recommend highly enough. I will be visiting my son much more often with Acoustic round the corner. Thanks to all the amazing staff and everyone at Acoustic. We shall be back!

I eat here often, especially for breakfasts with friends. Service is always excellent; friendly and efficient, and the full English breakfast really sets me up for the day

Visit to London to catch up with my son who has recently moved to the area & booked here for a dinner. From the arrival the service was impeccable and the food matched the service. Sharing platter was excellent as was my Lamb Koftas. Lovely...

The food not only looks perfect, it tastes amazing. We ordered The Acoustic (V) and the Vegetarian Mediterranean, the quality and taste of the vegetables was unlike anything I’ve had before in London, and the poached egg was perfectly done! The service was as good...

Visiting daughter in London for the day and she arranged a brunch/lunch at this very popular venue. Had a great buzz about it. Staff were very friendly and efficient and we didn't have to wait long for our drinks or food. Choice of drinks was...

The waiters are rude and unwelcoming. The food is over priced for what it is. My lunch was bland and under cooked and although the waiters could see that I had not touched it, didn't even have the manners to ask if everything was ok....

I’m a regular customer at Acoustic with colleagues for lunch, on the odd occasion I have come over for drinks after work. I would highly recommend their ravioli pasta and nibbles menu. The presentation is always great and the food comes fresh with quality ingredients....

This restaurant is on a lovely spot of stoke newington green. Tuna steak was perfectly cook, ribeye steak also amazing. Service was attentive and friendly. Homely wibes. Fairly priced

First issue was not a friendly or welcoming service from either of the waiters, which on its own wouldn’t have been too bad. Initially we had to request our water was replaced, because it was warm and tasted a bit like damp sponge. That was...

We were out for the evening and spotted this restaurant. It was a beautiful evening, people sat at tables outside and inside was very busy. Our waiter, Giovanni, took our order. We ordered 3 starters and a main meal and shared. The food was delicious....

Rude and stressed staff, completely inflexible with my order, waited over an hour for food, wish we’d gone somewhere else!

Setting was comfortable ,clean relaxed. A good variety of on the menu which was cooked beautifully. Service was faultless. Definitely retuning.

Ate brunch here yesterday - what a great experience. Beautifully presented and tasty food and friendly efficient service. So nice to be in a family run restaurant where the staff are so invested in giving you the best of everything. Highly recommended.

Second time in this stokey brasserie. Food is ok but the noise is terrible: sat with back to counter, they are making smoothies in a blender which is going every couple of minutes. Noise is terrible. That combined with coffee machine makes noise levels intolerable....

Had a lovely mid week dinner here with my 2 kids aged 9 and 11. There's a well priced kids menu of classics such as burger, spaghetti etc. Then a great menu selection for us grown ups too. The homemade lemonade was yummy, as was...

We were promised Bellini's on arrival, but there were none. The Christmas dinner was supposed to have pigs in blankets - none. And there was rice which there wasn't supposed to be (on top of roast veg). The vegetarian medley's vegetables were very over-cooked and...

promising from looking at the outside, but the warning signs were there when the menu arrived and it was more like an encyclopaedia. we both ordered breakfast dishes and neither dish arrived was anything like described on the menu and many might disagree, but the...

Ruined £500 worth of clothing, foot burnt and no compensation offered except coffee which was thrown over me was on the house

Quality ingredients and generous portions. Well cooked and incredibly friendly staff. Highly recommended

Really hospitable, very accommodating for gluten free. Large portions but the quality is still top! The sausages are delicious and the salad was fresh. Most of all the atmosphere is perfect for the european feel.

Unfortunately the quality of their food is very variable I have had a couple of dishes there that have been delicious but twice I have been when, once octopus which extremely rubbery and tough and once with duck breast which was also over cooked and...

Looking for a bagel, we stumbled across this cafe with lovely looking bagels. Upon eating said bagel, we were shocked to find that the filling inside the slightly luke warm, soggy bread (soaked in mustard) was stone cold. We were first impressed by the sesame...

Paid £6 for a soggy cold bagel- with thick rubbery ham. Took one bite and had to throw of away. Equivalent to bad plane food, not worthy the price tag. (Take-away)

A fantastic place. Great service, delicious food (with generous portion sizes), reasonably priced and lovely ambience. Me and my boyfriend went and had an amazing time!! Loads of options and excellent for veggies too. Would highly recommend Acoustic!!!

We came here by chance and this place was fantastic. Highly recommend and look forward to going again.

The buttermilk pancakes = Perfect 😋. Delicious Chicken grilled burger with seasoned (steak) chips = As I said... DELICIOUS. The Lamb Kofte was 3 decent sized ufo shaped ball/circle things that were very well seasoned and juicy! I wanted it to be sizzling hot so...

The food is mediocre and the service terrible. We had to wait 40min for our food which didn’t even arrive at the same time.

Lovely large corner at end of blocked off road & facing green, well spaced tables outside. We decided to eat inside. Again, well spaced tables, masked staff, sanitiser on every table. Fab menu. Food envy all around. Licensed, cocktails, beers. We chose 1x falafel wrap...

Local restaurant with plenty of food choices , went there couple of times for breakfast. This time for dinner for my partner birthday, service was ok, not as attentive as first couple of times, but the food was delicious. Generous portions ,finished with espresso martini...

we chose this restaurant as we were in clissold park.i had the risotto and iced latte,think hubby had the vegetarian breakfast,it was very good.

Such an amazing evening with delicious food... the best lamb chops I’ve ever eaten. The atmosphere created in this beautiful independent restaurant is a credit to the staff and owners. Such fun was had... I even played rock, paper, scissors with the owner to decide...

Delicious food and wonderful staff, we felt very comfortable and well taken care of! Thank you for a wonderful evening :) we’ll be back (again!)

Excellent service and delicious food! Cute independent restaurant with a great atmosphere and lovely staff. Recommend the warm chicken salad 👌

We ordered loads of dishes to share between two people which was the best idea. Food was incredible especially the octopus salad - meaty and zesty at the same time. The calamari was really something special, like eating clouds. The staff were so lovely -...

My partner and I decided to have a meal here last night, and we were not disappointed. He had the mushrooms with stilton, and I had the octopus salad for starters, and the quality and flavours did not disappoint. I had the duck and my...

The ambience at Acoustic Brasseries is beautiful these days. They have the tables well spaced and yet there is a compatibility there with other patrons. The menu is varied and I have tried several dishes there that are amazing. I personally love the sea bass...

I have only discovered the Acoustic recently during lockdown and I have tried it due to the high higyene rate that for me is essential. I have returned repeatedly. I suggest the king prawns and rice ... but I will soon try other dishes. The...

We've been going to Acoustic on Newington Green for more than 10 years, since Adil and his lovely wife, Sefika, took over. Superb freshly cooked food, artistically presented, with great outdoor seating, as well as incredibly friendly, professional service. Healthy, above all, with vegan and...

We love Acoustic, we come here regularly for our weekend brunch. But the last couple of visits were a bit slippery and chaotic in terms of the service as we had to remind ourselves repeatedly to a number of staff to kindly give us menus/take...

My boyfriend and I have been here a fair few times and it has never disappointed. It has a unique menu with a little bit of everything, delicious food and wine, and friendly staff. If you’re looking for a cosy night out in Stoke Newington...

I had brunch here with a friend and the food was lovely! She got the Mediterranean breakfast and I got the breakfast burrito. Portions were big and both were lovely. I ordered a cappuccino and when it came it was scalding hot and not well...

Portions were quite good. The owner of the restaurant is caring all about the customers. Has a good and quality team.

We enjoyed a relaxing evening with a group of friends. The food and service was excellent. We will definitely go back in the near future.

Quoting my boyfriend who said this was one of the best breakfasts he’s ever had. Ban na na pancakes were amazing - I couldn’t even finish them they were that big. Lovely little cafe with an international feel. I wish we had this cafe nearer...

Went to the acoustic brasserie with 4 friends recently Started off outside which can be lovely but it turned a little cool so the waiter v kindly accommodated is indoors My friend recommended a starter - baked goats cheese cooked in honey, roasted fresh figs...

Quick service and attentive. Food portion was generous and delicious. Great brunchy menu, perfect meal break for a stroll down church Street 👌🏼

Food was good, but that’s about it. Had four different workers throughout the meal, and none of them were especially service minded. Waited too long to order, for them to remove the food, get the bill, and I even had to ask where my change...

Coffee not so great and the Eggs benny's was a bit over done, the granola with fresh fruit and yogurt was delicious.

This is a great little restsurant. Recently taken over by the long standing Acoustic @ Newington Green. Pleasant and efficient staff and a new fresh european menu that's reasonably priced. Nice lication with tablesinside and out so you can rnjoy the weather and people watch....

Sat outside for brunch with 3 persons. Food was very good, nice service, and big portions. Good spot for lunch/brunch.

Recently ordered sandwich & fruit platter for a works meeting. Everything was top class & my clients were most impressed. Wouldn't hesitate to order again.

We recently went to acoustic with a wedding party of around 30 of us. We'd been to this place before and knew it was going to be great, we weren't disappointed! The food was absolutely delicious!! The service was excellent, and the size of the...

My friends just moved to London. We went here for brunch on the first day, and today (his 5th day here) he dragged me back here, he wanted to go yesterday so that says it all really! The coffee is good, the food is great,...

Specifically asked for juice with no ice but got with ice and the juice tasted like old vegetables. Service also got our food orders wrong and weren't even sure what was in the food they brought by. There were two of them holding up the...

We popped in on bank holiday Sunday after a nice walk through Stoke Newington. Despite every table full we were seen to quickly and attended to well. We both had pasta dishes - I had the meatballs. Lovely fresh food in nice setting

In Stoke Newington area Wirth our daughter and several places along the high street for lunch. This one caught our eye from atmosphere and food as we walked by earlier. Lucky to get a table outside a sunny Saturday. I had the Acoustic Burger including...

So I was met by the most beautiful lady who showed me to a table and her manners were impeccable, the service was first class and the food was excellent just as she said it would be, do not miss an opportunity to call in...

We went for an early dinner (group of 6) as the place was recommended for a friend. Decent veggie burgers and good choice of the food in general. Great atmosphere and very reasonable prices. I would definitely recommend it.

We went as a family group of five for dinner, three are vegetarians,. There is a varied menu and all the portions are large. Everything was really delicious. On a warm evening, some people were eating outside, otherwise inside and there was a very good...

We took breakfast me and my friend! Its was the most beautiful tasty bkf that we didnt have in a long time. My friend is Vegan without gluten and she had The perfect bkf for her. Its was sooooooo good! I was full for the...

We had early family dinner, the food was amazing, it is clear that the chef, wating staff and owners take pride in this place. We had variety of starters as it all looked delicious and wanted to try the variety offered we were not disappointed....

Very busy and noisy restaurant. Stopped by for brunch which was really delicious, but the tables are so closely crammed into this small space, plus it was packed, that the experience was not particularly enjoyable. Staff were lovely, but that wasn’t enough to balance out...

Have had brunch here a few times but came here for an early dinner for the first time - absolutely outstanding. The lamb koftas were perfectly cooked, gorgeous texture and flavour, with decent helpings of tzatziki and spicy sauce, rice and a very refreshing salad....

I usually wouldn't write a review after just one soup. But I believe it says a lot about a place when they make the effort to make a 5 £ soup, not just good, but ad the little extra , of good olives and warm...

Staff friendly, service speedy, chilled but buzzing atmosphere. Customers all look happy! Great menu - so hard to choose what to order! I had the Mediterranean breakfast with a green smoothie. Both were incredible. Merquez sausages, scrambled egg, hallumi, lightly toasted sour dough. YUM. Will...

I have lived in london my whole life this was the worst service and experience, I was served my breakfast with an oily liquid when I asked what it was my waiter told me it was a part of my meal alongside raw Turkish sausage...

The reason for three stars was really down to my dish itself, I ordered it with the Turkish sausage inside, which was forgotten, not a problem, they then brought it on the side. But, without the sausage the meal just tasted of passata, just tomato...

Very good atmosphere and quality delicious food.especialy whole menu was amazing .i really enjoyed the place..

This place seemingly draws in many regulars and you can see why. We've came over for lovely breakfast. We've been pleased with good quality of food, big portions, good prices and very friendly and helpful staff also atmosphere was great. We strongly recommend this place...

The friendliest staff matched by delicious food made for a very enjoyable experience! We arrived for an early lunch at 11:45am and they kindly offered us both the extensive brunch menu as well as the delicious sounding lunchtime menu, which begins typically from 12pm. We...

We ate here as a party of 9 people. Amazing food!!!!! Fresh produce & friendly staff.. and so reasonably priced! will 100% be coming back!!!

Been here twice now - lunch and dinner and both great Great if you eat meat or if you’re vegetarian Attentive, friendly and helpful staff Lamb kofta is one of my favourites

Best new restaurant in Stoke Newington! Great food and lovely staff! Couldn’t reccomend this place enough!

My boyfriend and I have visited this amazing restaurant a few times now and their food is consistently delicious and the service always attentive and first class. The place is an intimate setting with a good atmosphere guaranteed in the heart of Stoke Newington church...

I understand that the people running this cafe have only been doing this for a little while. We were all really impressed with the choice and quality of the food. The service on a busy Saturday morning was fantastic. Good luck to you all, you...
