Stacks Poutine in Hackney

Clearly understaffed, although there were only about 6 people in the restaurant, still managed to take 30 mins just to produce 2 cokes… waited 45 mins for food before giving up.

I called in while my wife was having eye surgery at Moorfields Eye Hospital. Excellent range of beers and the bar has a good retro feel. Checked the menu, and wow! I haven't had oysters for 25 years, and the King Billy's are the very best and beautifully presented. I'm back on they oysters 😋. The dishes I saw being served to other customers looked superb. Defo a big yes and thumbs up from me 👍 .

Had an interesting experience this evening at Iron Bloom....We walked into an empty restaurant (unheard of on a Saturday night in shoreditch), and unfortunately half the menu was unavailable (including all the desserts) which was disappointing. No real ambience either. The waitress was lovely and was really helpful answering any of our questions but the rest of the staff acted as if they were doing us a favour which made us feel a bit awkward and uncomfortable. Food wise, although limited, we loved the watermelon brisket and beef cheek croquettes. Just a shame there wasn’t more available. Seems like we came on the wrong evening looking at the rest of the reviews - netherless, I’d expect a little more considering the prices you pay for an evening out.

OMG the meal was delicious! Portions generous and fish and chips cooked to perfection. 10 platinum stars deserved. will be ordering again!!

We were very nicely surprised by the nice garden and amazingly tasty food. Team was very friendly too. Will definitely be back
