  • The Sunny Side Up cafe is a Veuve Clicquot breakfast cafe in Soho

    The Sunny Side Up cafe is a Veuve Clicquot breakfast cafe in Soho 

    Veueve Clicquot is coming to Soho with The Sunny Side Cafe, a pop-up that's a little different from their standard fare. Yes, there's Champagne (of course) but this is also a pop-up that's their own take on a classic greasy spoon cafe. As you can imagine from the Champagne house, it's going to be very different from the greasy spoons that you'll have encountered

  • The Dorchester Bar moves to the rooftop for a spring pop-up

    The Dorchester Bar moves to the rooftop for a spring pop-up

    The Dorchester Rooftop proved to be a pretty big hit when it opened last year (although Jay Rayner wasn't a fan). The space was previously a (very expensive) apartment/suite and saw the hotel converting it into a bar and restaurant. 

    After being closed for winter (it's not blessed with a retractable roof) it's opening up again for the summer where you'll find the main bar of

    Fancy impressing your boss or work colleague with a business lunch with a difference this week? Well, if you move fast, there are still tickets available at Subway's swanky pop-up restaurant at West India Quay. And yes, we did use the words swanky and Subway in the same sentence.

    The latest celeb to get into the food game is rapper Tinie Tempah. While you may immediately think "it's going to be something to do with tempeh, isn't it?" it is, in fact, a new fried chicken venture called RAPS (we see what he did there). 

    It's in two parts - delivery and a pop-up at the John Lewis rooftop space Willows on The Roof. He's teamed up with chef Big Has for

    Popping up briefly in St Christopher's Place this week is a Champagne bar with a difference. The signage out front doesn't give the game away but Veuve is actually a popup from Aldi, selling the supermarket's own-brand - and award winning - Veuve Monsigny Champagne.

    Billed as "the UK’s cheapest Champagne bar in one of the UK’s most expensive postcodes", Veuve will be open until Sunday to give weary Christmas shoppers

    We've been wondering what JKS Restaurants were going to do with the site where XU used to be, ever since it was confirmed that the Taiwanese restaurant was not going to reopen. Now, they've answered that question - at least for the short term.

    They're going to reopen it as a seven-week Vietnamese pop-up, VIỆTPopulaire, taking as their inspiration the street food "found in the coffee shops and beer stations of

    You may have come across Coravin before - they are behind those special machines that can serve glasses of wine while keeping the bottle sealed up so it stays fresh. They've appeared in a number of bars, restaurants and wine bars - but now they're going it alone with a pop-up wine bar in Mayfair. They're taking over La Cave Wine Bar which is tucked away in Lancashire Court.
