- Happy Endings are popping up in Shoreditch with ice cream sandwiches and soft serve
We've been big fans of Happy Endings' ice cream sandwiches for a while now. They've cornered the market in delivering London's very best ice cream sandwiches and there's a good chance you'll have come across them on some restaurant menus, or at shops like Nourished Communities.
But now - and for three months - you can find them in Shoreditch. They're
... - The Magnum ice cream pop-up is back with Magnum Studios in Shoreditch
A good sign that summer has properly arrived is the launch of the Magnum shop in London - and it's about to return once more. This time they're bringing ice cream to Shoreditch with the opening of Magnum Studios.
Put together with the help of - ahem - "content creators" Cat Burns, Charlotte Roberts, Lara Adkins, and Sophie Seddon, this time they'll be showcasing
... - Gordon Ramsay's Lucky Cat might be coming to Shoreditch as a noodle bar
Gordon Ramsay's big expansion plans see no sign of slowing down yet. Next up, it looks like he might be rolling out his Lucky Cat brand, starting with Shoreditch.
Lucky Cat was originally opened in Mayfair, taking over the space that used to be Maze on Grosvenor Square. Billed as an "authentic Asian Eating House",
- Test Driving Boundary - a Shoreditch cafe gets a massive makeover
Boundary in Shoreditch has had one hell of a makeover, transforming what was its Albion cafe into an elegant new British brasserie and bar. We went to check it out.
- Roxanne is a hip-hop speakeasy from the Dirty Bones team in Shoreditch
The people behind Dirty Bones have something very different planned for their next opening. They're about to open a hip hop speakeasy in Shoreditch called Roxanne (which happens to be just around the corner from the Shoreditch Dirty Bones).
Named after The Roxanne
... - A Stranger Things pizza pop-up has appeared in London
The wait is finally over as the latest series of Stranger Things has finally arrived (well, the first half of it anyway).
A big launch from Netflix usually sees them putting on an event or two in London, and this is no exception. This time, they've gone down the pizza route and have opened a branch of Surfer Boy Pizza (as seen in the show) called a Slice of the Upside Down.
... - The Rooftop at One Hundred Shoreditch is the latest roof for drinks and views
With rooftop bars suddenly becoming destination de rigueur for Londoners eager to make the most of spring weather (or perhaps everyone just read our recent feature), comes news of another that has just launched in Shoreditch.
You can now head up to the top of the
... - Boundary takes over from Albion as Boundary Shoreditch's new restaurant
There's change afoot in Shoreditch. Boundary London, which includes the hotel, restaurant and rooftop was bought by Harcourt Inns late last year (they're the people behind The Coach in Clerkenwell, The Hero of Maida in Maida Vale and more). Now we're seeing one of the main big changes as part of that - the unveiling of the ground-floor Boundary bar and
... - Shoreditch is getting a hot new rooftop bar Laurel's on the Roof
Back when it was The Curtain the rooftop bar at the Shoreditch hotel was strictly a members-only space. So we're delighted at the much more egalitarian approach by its successor, The Mondrian. They're opening the rooftop space out to everyone, launching it as Laurel's On The Roof this summer.
The name reflcts the restaurant's LA-inspiration, being named after Laurel Canyon, and it's going to be an all day-dining and
... - LALALAND is taking over the Dinerama space in Shoreditch
Dinerama in Shoreditch is no more, but coming soon to take its place will be LALALAND.
Details of this new outside space are a little thin on the ground, but we do know that it will all be centred around a courtyard with "tumbling waterfalls and living walls" and what they're calling a "sparkling plunge pool". We're going to assume that, even in the upcoming post-pandemic world, that the pool
... - H Division is a bar in a Victorian police station where you'll be hunting the Ripper
They've already created immersive bars like ABQ (the bar with a Breaking Bad theme) and Bletchley (1940s based, a bit of codebreaking involved) and now the same people behind those are heading to Shoreditch with another immersive bar.
This time it's called H Division. It's themed as a Victorian police station in east London that's covering unsolved cases. And yes,
... - Test Driving Goddard & Gibbs - bringing seafood to Shoreditch
Goddard & Gibbs is a new seafood spot in Shoreditch and part of the brand new One Hundred Shoreditch hotel. We went down to take a look.
- Umbrella Workshop is a tiny new Shoreditch bar from the Discount Suit Company team
If you like to be the one in your group who always knows where the hot new bar is, then you should have Umbrella Workshop, which has just opened its doors in Shoreditch, on your radar.
The tiny bar - there are just 12 seats - is from the team who run The Sun Tavern and Discount Suit Company and it's attached to their cocktail shop The Umbrella Project. So you can try anything they sell in the shop and - if
... - Kerb Counter brings pop-ups and residencies to Shoreditch, starting with From The Ashes
After the success of Seven Dials Market, Kerb are branching out further from the street food scene with a new venture in Shoreditch - Kerb Counter. It's both relocating from its previous home in Camden, to new digs just off Old Street roundabout, and evolving in the process.
It'll be a test kitchen, designed to host a number of pop-ups and residencies
... - One Hundred Shoreditch will have a new seafood restaurant and a Mr Lyan bar
17/1/22 - Updated with photos
London's Ace Hotel didn't manage to last the pandemic, with confirmation that it had closed permanently back in September. But just because Ace has gone doesn't mean that there won't be a hotel there. Instead - One Hundred Shoreditch will be opening in the space in 2022.
It comes from the group who also own the swanky
