The best restaurants in Hackney London

Found this wine bar via reviews. Would never have spotted it from the street. Fantastic selection of wine and lovely cheese boards to accompany the wine. Staff were very friendly

What a lovely place - I received a warm welcome and was told about the special. Just a few tables outside on the pavement and I sat out and had a delicious meal, the Amatriciana was cooked to order and wow, perfection. The staff are all genuinely friendly and help greedy confused people like me to choose. I hope to be back regularly 👌

Great local restaurant with nice eating spaces and lovely staff. We visited twice as we were staying nearby and both dinner and breakfast were lovely. Large menu with lots of choice and well made cocktails and coffees. Would definitely recommend if in the area. Thank you

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 🥰

Went at 5pm on a Saturday and the place was buzzing, has an amazing vibe for this early. Had Jerk Chicken which was succulent and tasty. Last time I had Jerk was at a stall in Jamaica so was expecting crispy chicken with burnt bits (which I absolutely loved) this was more tender and flavour mainly from the sauce rather than the skin. Really really good though.

Passione Vino If your a lover of Italian wine enjoyed with some amazing Italian food then a visit to Passione Vino is an absolute must. They stock an unbelievable range of wine from finest small Italian wine producers. These you can enjoy on their own or with a charcuterie board , snacks , pasta , and main course dishes. This was our first visit and you can be certain that we will return soon. Passione Vino is situated on Leonard Street in Shoreditch just a ten minute walk from Liverpool Street and Old Street stations. We entered to receive a delightful Italian welcome before being shown to our table. We then took a look around to see shelves from floor to ceiling stocked with Italian wines. But not everything is on this floor because one floor down is a room that could be used for a private function. Then you head to the basement where there is another room alongside the kitchen and toilet. We then took a look at the menu where there is a Charcuterie Board , snacks and some delicious looking pasta and main courses plus a dessert. Once we’d made our choice we then needed a bottle of wine. Our choice was a fruity sensation in the Ginestrone Langhe Nebbiolo 2022 from Conterno Fantino. We started with the Tagliere Misto a fine selection of meats and cheeses , Baccala - ciccheto with creamy dried cod on grilled polenta and the Frittata with turnip tops and washed rind cow’s cheese. It was all delicious and now couldn’t wait for our next course. Now it was time for our main course. My wife and our friend opted for the Bigoli pasta with salted cod in tomato sauce , capers and black olives. For myself I enjoyed an amazing Lasagna with broad beans , speck and smoked cow’s cheese. We the finished with the dessert of Rice and Honey pudding with baked rhubarb that was very creamy but perfectly balanced with the rhubarb. This brought an end to a fabulous evening of Italian food and wine with the team who are very knowledgable and friendly. I would definitely recommend a visit and will definitely be returning myself soon to try more of these fantastic wines. Thank You to all the team and look forward to seeing you again soon. Grazie Mille 🍷.

A fabulous experience booked last minute due to them having a cancellation, so very lucky! I would never have guessed that I was eating Vegan food, absolutely superb. Every course without exception was incredible! Fabulous vibe, great food and exceptional service!

Tasty Salt Beef Sandwich and good coffee. A nice independent local business worth supporting!

Has anyone been here lately? We’ve made two trips now on a Saturday and it sadly wasn’t open, even though the website says open at noon. Anyone have any insight on Saturday opening times? Need my Cincinnati Chili fix!!!!

Delicious, big portion, nice staff and good value! Can't suggest it more. Get the traditional breakfast. I can't wait to go back to London and eat here again.

The best peruvian restaurant in London and maybe one of the best in the world. This place is a mecca of peruvian flavours where each dish is presented to the highest standards and care. Not only, do the dishes look mesmerising but they taste unique.

Excellent food, wine and especially service supplied by Jose! Great experience which I would recommend to anyone. Good finish to the Jack the Ripper tour.

An extraordinary culinary and colourful fusion experience so beautifully presented. An absolute must if you would like to try tapas with a twist.

Pretty, friendly restaurant with lovely service. The pizza was absolutely outstanding! Can also recommend the delicious pasta ragu. Next time I’m going to try the ravioli.
