E8 Kitchen - (Near Hackney, london)

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

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.

Sarah H My son and I visited this lovely cafe to kill sometime before picking up his exam results. My son had hot chocolate and butter croissants, and I had a mocha and Croque Madam, which was delicious. The staff were friendly, and the service was good with reasonably priced food. It had a lovely ambience and is an ideal place for those who want to get some work done or just have a lovely meal.

Vas Vas K. Best option for lunch! Halloumi and pittas portion, super filling and yummy! Pitta Lab is my go to lunch in London Fields areas at least 3 times a week! I am absolutely obsessed with gyros too, look no further if you are a fan of Greek cuisine!

Dan R Good range of beers available, and a lovely space in an old arch. Arch = good beer. Bonus points for having a black IPA on. A smallish fridge with reasonably priced cans to take away as well. There’s a QR code for ordering food to as well from a local business. I presume bringing your own would also be fine.

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
