Sun Kitchen - (Near Hackney, london)

Becky Kember We have visited the Cricketers on many different occasions and have always had quick service and lovely food. We popped in today for some lunch and a few drinks for my partners birthday, food was served quickly (even with me being fussy and removing things from my nachos)! Spoke to two members of staff who were very helpful and friendly

faye8916 Specifically wanted to give a massive shout out to Russell. What a lovely guy. Walked in today Xmas eve with my 2 daughters. He welcomed us so warmly and gave my 2 daughters Christmas hats. We sat down with our food and I noticed he was welcoming everyone, making such an effort to chat to everyone. Some people knew him by name which was lovely. He sat and chatted to an elderly man on his own which by the looks of it, the elderly man really needed. He then came over and had a really lovely chat with us. Asking questions and talking to my daughters. I do not often give feedback but the service he gave was too good not to! Really made a difference and set this store above others I’ve been too.

AJ Zorrilla This place is amazing. Everyone I go to London.. I HAVE to stop there. Breakfast, like the avocado toast or the sweet corn pancake are delicious. Great ingredients, very well put together, definitely a place to keep coming back. Thank you!

Sobeit M Still licking my chops! Delicious food. The Lamb Bhuna was very tasty, albeit spicy. Pilau rice, fluffy and fragrant. Butter naan, a little crispier than Im used to but tasty nonetheless. The mixed tandoori grill was a sizzling feast of meats and onions. The starter came within 10 minutes, and the main meal about 7 mins after. Very generous portions. The music was loud but set the atmosphere and we didnt have to shout to make ourselves heard. Will definitely return to try other dishes on the menu as we enjoyed every one we ate.

Mark Monaghan Some dishes were very nice (mainly the bread and leek starters). However, some others, mainly the Denver steak main, were quite disappointing, especially when considering this costs just shy of £50. The dish took about an hour to arrive and was cold when it did (I assume it had been left out and perhaps a waiter had forgotten to take it to us). The waiter did offer to reheat it but this left it quite chewy. Overall it was not enjoyable and certainly did not meet the standard expected for the price. The service was also very slow throughout the remainder of the night and after ordering a single rice pudding dessert to share, this also took an additional 30 minutes to arrive. We spent another 15 minutes waiting for the waiter to bring the card machine after receiving the bill meaning in total we spent about 3 hours in the restaurant which was much longer than we had intended. I appreciate it was New Year’s Eve and so perhaps it was busier than the staff were used to, but again, this falls short of the standard one would expect for a restaurant where we paid around £90 per person on food alone. The atmosphere was pleasant but given the above I would not return nor could I in good conscience recommend it to a friend.

P R Lived up to the Vittles hype for me. Really loved the food - particular standouts were the lamb ribs, the milk bread with mushrooms, and the meringue desert (maybe the best desert I’ve ever eaten). We sat at the counter which I highly recommend if you are in a pair. You can see the open kitchen and also see one of the chefs plating snacks and deserts in front of you on the counter. The service was really good - didn’t catch his name but shoutout to the Australian guy with long hair!! He gave us great recs on food and drink. I’m not big into wine but the cocktails were delicious and I had the most lovely Japanese tea at the end. Overall we had such a lovely dinner here and I couldn’t recommend enough. Came to about £100pp which we thought was very fair given how good the food was and we had a couple of drinks (and a tea and coffee) each - and left stuffed
