Wilton Way Deli and Wines has built up a strong following in Hackney and now owner Francesca D’Agostino is getting ready to expand with a second opening - but not too far away. She's going as far as the corner of Wilton Road to open Fran's.
She describes Fran's as an "all-day caff" open from breakfast to the evening, "inspired by the old-style Italian/British cafes

... - You Call the Shots is a residency-fuelled bar in Hackney from the team behind The Plough
A new bar is coming to Hackney, taking the space that was once Silver Lining (and very briefly House of Hades). You Call the Shots comes from the same team as The Prince Arthur in London Fields and The Plough in Homerton (Emma Piggott and Jonathan Mercer) but this will be a little different to those pubs.
- Pidgin is closing, Sesta is opening in its place
The year of high-profile closures continues. The latest restaurant to reveal that it's shutting the doors, after nine years, is Pidgin, James Ramsden and Sam Herlihy's Hackney restaurant. But just because they're leaving, it doesn't mean it's quite the end for this tiny Hackney restaurant.
Announcing the closure ...

A somewhat quiet opening in Hackney earlier this month is already starting to get a lot of positive reactions.

- Inis will serve up British and Irish food on Hackney Wick's Fish Island
There's been some debate recently on what makes a neighbourhood restaurant. However, we figure that if you've spent the past decade living somewhere, that's surely got to count for something. And locals Lynsey Coughlan and Lindsay Lewis have lived in Hackney for ten years before deciding to open their first restaurant.
Inis, which will be part of Fish Island's The Trampery campus, is going to serve up a mix of British
