On top of being chef-owner of Tredwells, Chantelle Nicholson is in charge of a pop-up in Hackney called All's Well. It opened at the end of October 2020 - getting in a month before everything shut down again. But now it's on the way back.

News reaches us of a new development from the people behind Lagom, the British/Swedish smoking kings that you'll have seen serving up smoked meats and lots more at Hackney Church Brewery. Now, according to their Instagram feed, they've just opened a brand new pizza restaurant in London Fields (something they had been trialling in Clapton late last year).
They've taken over the space that
... - Brat at Climpson's Arch is going to be a permanent fixture
When London emerged from its first lockdown all those months ago, one of the first restaurants to completely reinvent itself was Tomos Parry's Brat. While the original restaurant stayed where it was (with a bit of table rejigging) they complimented it with a sister restaurant at Climpson's Arch, correctly assuming that alfresco dining would be very much a big thing in 2020.

... - Moro pop up with piri piri at Hackney Wick
Throughout December there's now an additional reason to head out to Hackney Wick. Perenially popular restaurant Moro has just started a pop up in Autumn Yard. The yard itself is right on the river Lea opposite the London stadium and is a joint venture between Sam Clark of Moro and Morito and Nina Tolstrup of Studio Mama.
The winter popup at Moro's unit places piri piri chicken and squid at the heart of the
... - Hackney's Towpath Cafe is reopening for the winter
We really are in unusual times. One of the things that regulars of Hackney's oh-so-popular Towpath Cafe know is that it's an ephemeral, seasonal kinda place - opening with the onset of summer and closing as Autumn arrives. But this weekend, owners Lori De Mori and Laura Jackson revealed that, along with most of London's hospitality world, they'd also be reopening.
In a post on Instagram, they said:

... - Sonora Taqueria is the new Netil Market place from the Pollo Feliz folk
Over lockdown, Netil Market's Pollo Feliz did a roaring trade in deliveries with East Londoners becoming more than slightly obsessed by their tortillas. So much so, that they've been able to expand with a bigger stall and a new direction. As first reported by Eater, they've become Sonora
... - Nebula Pizza on Hackney Road is as much about the drinks as the pizza
You may be wondering does Hackney really need another pizza place? Certainly, the team behind Nebula, which opened at the weekend, are very much hoping it does.
This new pizza, beer and cocktail joint has taken over a space just off Hackney Road near to ABQ Bar and Mama Shelter. It's a large site - with room for 200 pizza lovers. And the fact that it also has a large courtyard won't hurt it at all in the current times.
The team behind it are
