Meat Mission in Hackney

This place is uniquely decorated with a cool atmosphere, made for a fun meal with friends. Friendly staff members. Menu options were good, with a dedicated vegan/veggie section. The food all came out on a big tray which was then left for us to distribute onto smaller plates - a cool idea in theory but made the already small tables a bit cramped for space. Despite this, food was delicious and have already recommended to friends to visit.

really nice spot for dinner or lunch with super create interior. staff were helpful and kind, and food was nicely served and prepared. not typically a burger person but tried something different and wasn’t disappointed! i’d return :)

We could not recommend this restaurant more. In fact we all wished we could go back the next day. The burgers were incredible! The chips were so delicious. The venue is so cool. The staff were so friendly and so accommodating. Everyone needs to eat here!

Booked a table for my birthday and the food and staff were excellent! So kind and just had the best time!

We a great time, the food was absolutely delicious and service was really lovely 🥰

Food was incredible as always, the lunch deal is very good value. I booked and ticked that it was my birthday however there was no recognition of this. We were the only ones in the restaurant at 3pm however never got offered another drink, water or deserts. Staff inattentive and even took for us to get up to ask for the bill. Not a great idea experience for my birthday at all.

Overall tasty, fresh yet simple burger! Very cool and quirky venue!

So so so good!! The food was delicious, the bacon & cheese burger! So simple so amazing, the way the bacon is pressed to cover the entire burger, the crispy edges of the smashed burger patties. Best burger I’ve had in a long time. Buffalo fries were incredible. Hash browns so crispy but not greasy, chill fries were LOADED like a meal on their own. Milkshakes and cocktails awesome. The staff were also really friendly, attentive and gave us a great tip on where to go once we had finished up there. So good I never even got a chance to take any photos. Would love to come back!!

Friendly helpful service, nice atmosphere/vibe and good food.

Food feels to have seriously declined in quality, new recipe monkey fingers are not as good, the burger was dry (admittedly we ordered with mustard instead of ketchup but patties were dry and overcooked). Great to see a hot dog back on the menu however felt small and was not very flavourful. Mac and cheese bites good and salt and pepper fries nice but expected more seasoning. Drinks were good and well presented however 2 members of staff on the floor/bar, one of which on their laptop during our meal which made it difficult to get attention. We used to frequent MEATliquor often as food felt like a treat and decadent however do not think we’ll plan to visit again.

The burgers were really nice and the brownie was DELICIOUS. The only thing we were disappointed with were the green chilli cheese fries, which weren't really what we were expecting and the cheese wasn't melted

Fun place in the heart of Uni of Westminster. Old mission that is now a cool dive burger place. We had the green chili burger, cheese burger, fried pickles and buffalo fries. Everything was really good. Staff was super friendly. Def will go back to try other items on the menu.

Staff were so lovely and attentive. Burgers were delicious. I would highly recommend 😄😄😄

The best burgers in London, highly recommend. Meat is juicy, fresh and delicious!

Me and my friends really enjoyed our meal and drinks. The service was lovely and the onion rings were amazing (and huge!)

Staff were great couldn’t have done more for you great service great atmosphere we will be back

Good food (both ate cheese burgers), good service with little wait time even on a Saturday night, friendly staff

Really cool quirky spot! Music on which creates good atmosphere. Food was good. Staff very attentive. Nice little pool table to play on too. Would defo come back

Friendly service... tasty food... great cocktails! :))

Amazing evening with my friends. Great portions and good price. Only comment is having the food brought out on a big platter. Individual plates would be preferred but it’s really nothing at all to complain about. The food was amazing.

Lovely service but disappointing food. Lifeless burgers covered in mayo and dull fries. Not for me.

The ambience and music was great, but the food wasn’t as good as expected

Lovely food and great service, we were all made ro feel very welcome and we had fun

Went with friends for lunch on a Friday afternoon. Loved the music, the vive, the cheeseburger I had was incredible and it wasn't too busy either so service was good. Thank you!

A very good experience. Good food along with very good service too. Will be back again for sure.

Fantastic food and great service in a very nice restaurant which was busy but spacious. Buffalo Chicken Burger and Green Chilli Cheese fries are out of this world!!

Really great food choice. I very rarely have a burger but decided to go for it. Fabulous! Fresh and flavourful. Chips hot and fresh. Staff very attentive and nice. Hung our coats up without waiting to be asked. Good atmosphere but one criticism-the music is to intrusive-but I’m old!

Loved my visit, such a great spot, my favourite MEATliquor!

Maybe I’m just old but the music was really loud. Like eating in a night club 😂 Great burgers, nice staff, as long as you don’t mind shouting over Nirvana

Incredible food as always, great vibe and the service was exceptional good last night. I think her name was Emily? She went above and beyond for my friends birthday, and really helped make it a special evening. 😊

Manager was completely inappropriate she hovered around constantly and when we had an issue with food she became exceptionally rude and aggressive. Completely ruined my son’s birthday we didn’t even cut the cake we just left.

After arriving and getting our seat the service took more than 30 minutes to be even given a menu. Following this after being told they would be back in a few minutes to take our order it took another 30+ minutes for our order to be taken. Once our food arrived there were items missing that we had ordered. After all the food had arrived it was a good meal but a shame about the service.

Was good, we enjoyed it. Expected a bit more from the food. The bbq wings were the only thing that was quite poor. The burgers are decent. Not the best burger you’ll get, but it was ok. The staff were really friendly, the food came quickly. All in all it was enjoyable. But won’t be in a rush back.

Excellent food relay nice service great and atmosphere superb

The food and atmosphere is great !! Order your food separate but comes out on a large sharer plate with I thing is a great idea. Only minor negative is staff left us with the tray for almost an hour after we finished and didn’t offer any extra drinks or the bill.

MEATMission in Hoxton (as I will always call it) remains my favourite of the MEATliquor group (although I'm a fan of the Islington branch and miss the sadly closed King's Cross space too). Much quieter than usual (it was a Monday - the day to get a table almost anywhere in these post-Covid times) but the food was hot and the beers were cold. Mac 'n Cheese bites are essential, as is a Dead Hippie, and we're definitely talking top three burgers in London. Terrific staff, good music and a killer venue. And as I've been on the mailing list since forever, it was a 50% off food special - what's not to like. The perfect way to start the week!

This is the prettiest of all the MeatLiquor venues, tucked away in an old mission with a magnificent illuminated ceiling and an old spiral staircase arcing up through the middle. As always, the staff were charming. I was excited because I haven’t been to MeatLiquor since the autumn due to several illnesses and this branch was new to me. Visually it didn’t disappoint and the designer deserves 10.10 for the looks. A bit less for the heating. It wasn’t a cold day but the restaurant was chilly and I ended up putting my scarf back in despite all the chilli I ate. I saw other people keep their coats on. Now for the bad news… the food has gone downhill: The burgers were thin and dry, two chewy patties rather than one plump one, and just uninteresting. I didn’t even finish mine. This has never happened before. A shame, because the bun was fine and the toppings generous. The onion rings were unavailable, and the hashbrowns were ordered to replace them were pallid, white, half cooked things of sadness. The chef must have thought they were acceptable because they were duly placed in front of us… they were lukewarm at best. Most of them went uneaten. The waitress seemed unsurprised. On the plus side, the cheese and onion chips were perfect, and the mac and chorizo bites - which I had not tried before - were yummy. This has been my favourite burger chain in the whole world since the first one opened just off Oxford Street. I was disappointed and am not sure what to do now…

Brilliant, good and service! Does exactly what it said on the tin!

Great burgers - wings and chips ok! Good cocktails

Amazing as always - only downside was that there were a few items we wanted (fried pickles and milkshakes) that weren’t available that was a little disappointing

terrible food and service was not good. Restaurant was not even full and all staff was hanging out in one area chatting

Always enjoy it here - good food, friendly staff, good service. Thank you!

Forgot to give us the lunch menu at lunch so we weren't aware of the deal and ended up paying a bit more than we might have done. Had to get up from the table twice to get someone's attention despite being one of only three groups in the restaurant at the time.

As always, really great burgers and chicken. Very rarely have anything other than an excellent meal here

Service was great and very friendly however food took a while to come out and it was not that good

Excellent food. Burgers and fries always immense. Great music and good atmosphere.

The service was great and very friendly. Food was absolutely amazing. Music was banging. Nothing to fault. Will definitely be back in the new year.

The food was exactly we expected. We were running a little behind and it wasn't a problem. Made to feel welcome and the food was enjoyable. Onion rings to die for.

We really had a great time. Amazing burgers and atmosphere

As I remembered it from a few years ago. Awesome burgers, tasty cheese fries, and monkey fingers are great!

Great evening, thank you :) , also the birthday girl wanted to thank the bartender who was on shift aswell .

We booked a table for a friend's birthday the guy who greeted and took our orders was really good, chatty helpful and friendly, the food was great a but on the expensive side but that's London !!. After we ate we were chatting and we asked for the bill. The young guy who came over with the receipt, well to be honest he was just rude, we wanted to split the bill which seemed like a massive inconvenience to him, at one point he huffed off saying I'll come back when you've sorted yourselves out ! This upset all of us, not great not friendly not somewhere I would recommend. Shame it spoilt a nice afternoon

Small portions for the price, but overall nice experience!

The restaurant was pretty quiet for a Saturday night but the staff were nowhere to be found. Food arrived cold. Waited 40 mins for someone to come back to clear the table and order another drink, which we then had to swig down because they wanted the table back but had taken 20 mins to bring them over from the bar that was right there. In terms of atmosphere, you can smell the toilet bleach from across the restaurant. The music is blaring - not in a fun, energetic way but in a "have to shout at the person sitting opposite you so they can hear you" kind of way. Finally, beware of the "optional" 12.5% service charge and additional charity donation they put on the bill. We would've quibbled the service charge if we weren't running so late because of the super slow service.

Service was very very good. It’s just the food was not very nice. Onion rings were really greasy and the burger presentation was basic to say the least. Also, include fries with the burgers.

Great fast service, food and amazing music, would deffo go again

Amazing food, perfectly cooked! The staff were the best, couldn’t be nicer people!

Music was way too loud for a resteraunt, waiters couldn't even hear what we were ordering and it was difficult to get their attention. Last time I went to a MeatLiquor was about 7 years ago and the quality has gone way down. Instead of real cheese its just cheap american squirty cheese now — horrible! I won't go back now.

Food outstanding and came quick but choice of pints so many not on tap which was a shame but don’t let this ruin the meal. Will go back for sure

Waited half hour for our drinks. 45 minutes in and no sign of any food so thought we’d order another drink. At this point could see that the food order hadn’t actually been added to the tab. We asked the waitress if this was right, to which she lied and said the order had gone through. It then magically appeared on our tab but again was wrong so had to get that corrected. Eventually got our food 1hr and 15 minutes later. Groups that came in after us had been in and gone in that time. Definitely won’t be going back.

Overall it was ok. Food was tasty. Unfortunately we had to chase up forgotten drinks and food. We were a table of 11, so appreciate we were a large group. Music was fun, but became a bit too loud to hear each other talk.

The service so very very poor, know one came over to take our drink or food orders for ages, had to use the app it the end to order food

Food was fabulous and so reasonable! Quirky little restaurant, staff were nice and pleasant.

Loved it, a cracking burger - great little sit down burger place. Do not, under any circumstances, order fried pickles - everything else is solid, enjoyable food. Great stuff

Went on a Sunday night so was quite quiet. Really cool looking place, stills feels quite authentic though (so not too polished!) Food was very tasty although American style cheese sauce isn’t my thing. Portion sizes were decent. Best espresso martini! Very pleasant service, with time for a chat. Off the beaten track but follow your gps app!

Great food selection, cooked really well. And good beer choices for those who like that. Very much recommend the food here.

Overall comments: I didn’t have any expectations when we were headed here and was left pleasantly surprised. A high number of Veg & Vegan options which is a big plus. I’m definitely planning to revisit maybe another branch in-between trying new places soon. One thing to note: unsure if the normal bathrooms were out-of-service at the time, but I remember everyone having to use one disabled bathroom. My order was as follows: Main(s): Burgaloo 2, Side(s): Fries, Dessert(s): Vanilla Milkshake. Food: Burger was not too messy and the fries were ok. Milkshake was decent and had a very good level of thickness. Atmosphere: Had comfy sofa seating against the wall and it was very comfy. Decent amount of space and some interesting décor alongside music choices. Service: Service was good with excellent speed of food arriving at the table. Cost: Slightly above Mid-Range but worth it.

It was very noisy in here, I could barely hear the people next to me. The food was ok but very expensive for what it was. I don’t think I’d go again but that probably more a personal preference, other people I went with enjoyed it and said that their meals were tasty.

Eat great Dead Hippies & Picklebacks, and the service was amazing too with very attentive staff with a smile

Food was fine, nothing special. There are better places doing similar but superior food in nicer more comfortable environments, such as Patty & Bun. Also though portion sizes were quite small for the price. When MEATliqour came out it was a bit of a novelty but now there is too much competition to make me want to return.

Food and Drink still good. However, the monkey fingers have changed drastically and not for the better.

Rarely seen such a dreadful place! Went before Brexit and was ok ! Now it s Over noisy, super slow (most likely understaffed Left after 30 min waiting to get a simple chicken burger One of the waitress asked me if all was fine? When I started to say no and enumerate the issues, she just left ! 1 0gbp for a miserable margharita ! Was not even asked if I wanted another one !! Happy brexit

I got my usual takeout of Meatliquor and order of Monkey Fingers on the evening of 09/12/2022. It showed up with what looked like fried chicken. I called the restaurant and was informed that they had 'changed the recipe'. I'm not sure how completely changing a dish is 'changing a recipe'. The signature batter of the monkey fingers was gone. Unfortunately the new version is just bad. The batter was thick and dry and did not protect the chicken properly either, rendering it dry. As a fan favourite of so long honestly I don't know why you would change the product completely (unless of course the person I spoke to just couldn't be bothered to deal with the problem and lied about the recipe change).

We were warmly welcomed into this amazing venue by the staff and quickly shown our table. Started with some well mixed and spicy cocktails. The food was amazing. Really spicy and the chicken was top quality. Burgers were meaty and coated with lashings of cheese or other sauces. Perfect sized portions with plenty of chips as sides. All perfectly cooked and delicious! Atmosphere in the room was festive without being too rowdy and we could hear ourselves talk. The waiting staff were totally professional throughout but friendly with it.

Best hamburger and even one of my best meals on our one week trip in London. Food is definitely 5 out of 5. The cause of the overall reduction to 4 points is that the music was really loud and a normal conversation was impossible...

I was on a date and was served by Kasyema in Meat Mission and she was very attentive and smiley and personable and made me and my date feel very welcome. She is a great server and is a valued member of your staff. We...

Good food. Food was great and the service started well. A little pricey though. Just to note the burgers are done medium which we couldn’t see written anywhere. Though bits were well cooked for me to share with someone who doesn’t like it not well...

We booked lunch here for our daughters 18th online and as soon as we arrived the staff were so welcoming and friendly. In particular, Sabina, our waitress. She was super lovely and helpful throughout our meal. At the end they even brought a complimentary drink...

A perfectly decent experience but nothing special. First time back since pre-pandemic. The shakes are smaller, the fried pickle recipe has changed, chips were excellent, burger was fine. I don't like the new fried pickles, too much batter, too little pickle. As a result, this...

I come back here again and again with friends or my partner. The monkey fingers are to die for and the house grog cocktail is so good, especially as it’s only around £10. Good vibes all round.

Great food (monkey fingers are a must!) and friendly service from everyone - esp from Kasyema. Thanks again!

We went on Sunday evening with a bunch of friends. The burgers were epic and the staff friendly and attentive. Natalie was a gem. Credit to the entire smiley hard working team and the long hours they do. Because I couldn’t fault A THING !...

The thing that’s most consistent about this place is that the food is *always* great. However on this occasion, I have to take a mark off as the service was a little chaotic. It felt like they may have been some staff down. We were...

Had a fantastic visit to MEATliquor Shoreditch tonight. Service was fantastic and the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and accommodating! I cannot recommend the food here enough. The Parma burger is probably one of the best burgers I’ve ever had, and the dead hippie fries...

Always love coming here, food is always amazing. The cocktails are so good and the waiters are always so much fun. Will be back soon for more monkey fingers!

What can I say about YAZ! I didn’t even notice the wait for food! She’s so friendly I genuinely felt like I was talking to a friend I’ve had for YEARS. She recommended the best shots throughout the night and made it a meal out...

Had a great time. The food was great and really filling. Our waitress Yaz was super friendly and had great banter. 10/10 would come back again if just for Yaz. Honestly made a us feel comfortable and welcome. We cancelled a reservation to go somewhere...

YAZ served us and she was so sweet and helpful with the whole menu it really made my first visit memorable

Love coming here, the food is always amazing, as is the service. My husband and I come here regularly and are never disappointed. We love the dead hippie burger and will be back soon!

The food is average and so was the service, not that you get a lot of service. When we arrived we were told that we had to order everything thing through an app which automatically added a service charge and a charge for using the...

Great food. The onion rings were enormous and the best I've ever eaten. The burgers were cooked pink and were delicious.

Came here for a mates stag do, it was amazing as ever. We were kindly given their private room which is a huge round table and perfect for a group of lads. A lot of the guys I was with hadn’t been to meat liquor...

We had a nice experience here. All the food was good but just good. Nothing really had the WowFactor!! We would come again for a cheeky bite out. The location is a bit strange/dry. Service was excellent though!

I dined here for dinner on Saturday night. I had never been before, but my partner had been to another one of the chains but both of us were very pleased with our experience. The restaurant looks great, very quirky with a big bar in...

And here we go again! 😅 came to visit Shoreditch on Saturday- was super busy,but the team got everything under control. Great communication and amazing service, really appreciate it! Cheers guys and hopefully see you again 😃

Food was amazing and the staff were great taking our order of chilli dogs with no chilli and monkey fingers (battered chicken strips) with no sauce but when it came it was perfect. The place is a bit ‘edgy’ and dark but couldn’t fault the...

If there is one thing I’ve really missed since the pandemic started, it is a really good American style dining experience. We normally spend a lot of time in the US and I love the whole dining culture, and we’ve visited tons of American-style eateries...

Absolutely LOVED meatliquor! My husband and i were staying locally and hes been with friends before and said the burgers were insane and i hate to say hes right but he IS!! The burgers are just AMAZING. Its a cute restaurant, quirky decor (obviously Shoreditch)...

What a place! Was there yesterday and had an amazing time, ordered delicious vegan burgaloo burger and Satan fingers - a great recommendation from Lukasz! Great place to be, cheers to Lukas and Elena for creating an amazing atmosphere 😃🥳 definitely will be back soon...

Came here for dinner and the place was mainly empty. The service was great and our waiter was super attentive. Coke floats are always a winner and the burger and fries were so good. Generous portions!
