If you love the idea of a festival, but baulk at the general lack of comfort and sanitation, then we might have a halfway house solution for you. For four nights this summer, everyone's (except the far right) favourite steakhouse Hawksmoor, is popping up in a Hertfordshire woodland with a special feast.
They're holding a cooking over fire experience in the woods at The Grove, a swanky five-star hotel in
... - A Baileys iced coffee pop-up is coming to Shoreditch

... - London is about to get a pop-up olive oil bar
Unless you’re a professional food taster, you may not have had the pleasure of cleansing your palate with a shot of olive oil, but that’s all about to change with the news that an olive-oil pop-up bar is coming to Notting Hill.
Much more than a health food, extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) conjures up majestic drizzles of the golden stuff on sun-drenched Mediterranean escapes. And for a short time, you can both educate
... - A Twin Peaks diner and a Wes Anderson bar are both popping up in London this summer
We love a well-themed pop up and this summer, London has two good ones to choose from.

The downstairs bar of the restaurant has been transformed into Marseille Bob's, after a key character in the Anderson's new movie, The Phoenician Scheme.

One of the biggest draws of Claude Bosi's two-Michelin-starred Brooklands is the fantastic terrace, one of the best rooftop dining spaces in London. However, the stunning terrace perhaps isn't the ideal space for a fine-dining Michelin-level experience, and now it's getting something of a summer overhaul.
Taking over this space for the whole of Summer is a new pop-up
... - Top New York bar Dante is popping up in Claridge's for a month
Caffe Dante has had quite a history in New York, having originally been established back in 1915. However, its current iteration launched as Dante back in 2015, and the restaurant and bar have since won heaps of accolades in the decade since.
But if you haven't managed to make it over to New York to check it out, Dante is coming to London instead. It'll be taking over the bar

Every so often, a big brand will come up with a London pop up idea that makes us double-check that we haven't somehow time-travelled to April 1st again. This latest from Bosch showcases exactly what we mean as they're launching a restaurant where you'll be eating off the floor. No, really.
Run by Gok Wan (starts checking the calendar one more time), the

If you're not paying attention the next time you wander in and out of Selfridges you might be forgiven for wondering if you've somehow managed to transport yourself to NYC instead. That's because the Oxford Street department store has designed a fortnight's Big Apple experience with Coach and It's Bagels.
The idea is to celebrate the two brands' New York roots and as part of that, the entrance to the store will
