The Empire Bar - (Near Hackney, South East)

M Farr-Matt Fantastic local spot. No tables but we sat at the bar. The food - Spanish- was excellent. Some of the best food I’ve had this year. Portions are not huge but we didn’t leave hungry. The staff (I think an entirely male team) were informed, helpful friendly and charming. There was a female DJ playing some laid back tunes. We will be back to try other guest cuisines in the coming months.

Florama Delicious pizza, good choice of toppings, including vegan options. Cosy restaurant, with a lively atmosphere, its very popular so if youre going weekends, its probably best to book a table. We had a few issues trying to get our drinks order, but was sorted after a couple of visits to the bar.

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

Locations with Ajla-rae Went with my brother and uncle Anthony, for a quick meal as we were staying in Greenwich, Service was fine, food was ok, would have liked a bit more meat, but will ask for more the next time I go, See you soon Ajla

The Siberian travel dude Named Alligator Rapid Very very good west African cuisine. Had jollof rice, chicken and fried rice. Plantains are very tasty, and the chicken is fantastic. Jollof is also very nice, but some parts are clumped. All in all very good and I recommend if you’re in the area
