Mam Vic's Plantain Parlour in Hackney

We came for the whisky tasting which we found interesting and fun, we were made to feel very welcome , drinks are very good and a nice venue 🥃

First of all: the people working here are lovely and really helpful and warm... They gave us a taster plate of all their offerings and it was so difficult for us to choose from because everything was delicious in it's own way. The whole thing was an experience with the workers dancing along to the rhythms and honestly looking so happy 🥰

What a great experience! We had so much fun experiencing dish after dish of Ghanian cuisine (the menu that night - it varies). It was lovely getting to know the many people from all over who came together to share supper and wine (and liqueur!) while supporting Doctors Without Borders. Early in the evening we gathered in the parlour and got a chance to introduce ourselves to our fellow guests while the host and her sous chefs were finishing up the cooking. We then shared a large table and dish after dish came out of the kitchen. More than enough for everyone to get their fill. It was a lovely experience and I hope more people will be lucky enough to experience it, too.

This restaurant has set the bar for how Caribbean food can be made,with a twist is how I would describe it The food is made with... love. Took my wife who has never had Caribbean food and she absolutely adored it. The ambience was great, food and drink was on point with presentation a big thumbs up. I would highly recommend.

Ocurrió que pasear por la zona buscando cualquier tipo de café para sentarse mientras esperé unas pocas horas por un amigo, no esperaba nada en particular. Pero mi ¡oh, ¿estoy contento de que tropezamos con Hirsinger y Strauss! El lugar es tan cálida y acogedora, y el personal te hace sentir aún más con su amable, servicial, allegados forma. El café es el lugar perfecto para protegerse de la lluvia el tiempo fuera, donde se puede oír el suave sonido de jazz suave y compartir la compañía de los demás tranquilo folk. La comida es absolutamente increíble y el té.
