Farley Macallan in Hackney

I’ve been to the Plough quite a few times over a couple of years. It’s a nice pub, the staff are friendly and they have a cocktail menu and decent draught selection. They have screens for the sports lovers and there are guest chefs now and again mixing up their menu. I’ve never been to their basement club but they do have one! And their roast is really nice!

Like so many we hadn't dined out in a long time and my clever husband suggested to sulky me a mid-week local pick-us-up treat. I can only say wow. We loved Ceres when we last visited in 2019 but the tasting menu tonight with matched wines was out of this world and a steal at the price. Deservedly Michelin-recognised cuisine with such a friendly and professional face (just two young women currently run the whole outfit including single handedly chef-ing and wonderful front of house). Ceres is walking distance for us and we are grateful because it is a destination-grade restaurant. Fine dining for £48pp.

This is my go-to lunch spot! I have tried soo many things from the menu and they are all great! My top favourites are the sweet chilli Korean fried chicken and the chicken katsu curry! Place is clean, staff are very friendly and food is delicious ✨

Excellent quality food. Home cooked lasagna which was actually home cooked with excellent balance of ingredients. Great coffee. Good pricing.

Cool place will visit again felt safe and comfortable will return again In the spring or after COVID
