Pop-up

We're impressed by the perfect timing behind the new Guinness pop-up experience that's coming to The Ned. On for three months, they've chosen the perfect time of year to launch it, just in time for St Patrick's Day.

The Guinness Bar will take over the Long Bar on the lower ground floor of The Ned. They're describing it as an immersive experience so there'll be all kinds of Guinness paraphernalia and old Toucan posters.

For just two months Londoners can try a special menu by Ivan Orkin of NYC's Ivan Ramen being served up at The Ned. We went along for a slurp.

Two years after they launched a pop-up with Japanese artist Kusama at Harrods with its own patisserie counter, Louis Vuitton are back at it again. They've just opened a pop-up in Soho to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of their partnership with another Japanese artist Takashi Murakami.

The Louis Vuitton x Murakami pop-up has taken over the old Fiorucci store on Brewer Street for a month.

A new survey has revealed that the UK is tired of cold, limp sandwiches. This is where Mexican restaurant group Tortilla comes in. They're taking to the streets of London to give city workers a lunchtime glo-up, giving away hundreds of free quesadillas.

London's pizza game has improved immeasurably in recent years, but there's also a pizzeria just north of the M25 that everyone's been talking about. Gracey's in St Albans has been getting rave reviews, but not every Londoner wants to travel that far for their pizza fix. 

But now that's changing as Gracey's have come to London instead. While they've done quick pop-ups before, this is a

They have become a massive viral hit on TikTok, with enormous queues developing around their Preston truck and now Spud Bros have arrived in London.

Their original Preston baked potato truck, despite being a fixture of the town's Flag Market for 70 years, surged in popularity when Jacob and Harley Nelson took over the promotion of the social feed. Going for a more irreverent tone,

Last year, Aldi launched a pigs in blankets restaurant with unlimited servings of the Christmas staple. It must have been a success because they're back at it again, this time in Shoreditch.

As before, they will be serving up unlimited portions of pigs in blankets (as well as a glass of prosecco) although you are limited to an hour. This year, they're promising six courses which will include a Pig in

They're responsible for serving up one of Shoreditch's most popular brunch menus. Now Friends of Ours are hoping to bring that same joy to West Londoners. This weekend they launch a six-month pop up brunch restaurant inside the Serpentine North Gallery's Zaha Hadid building.

The new restaurant will take over from what used to be a Benugo, serving up the Friends of Ours brunch-with-a-twist dishes for a

If you've been struggling to get a table at A Wong, even more so since it won the second Michelin star, now there's another way to try chef Andrew Wong's food. He's just teamed up with The Donovan Bar in Mayfair for a three-month residency (and two more big-name chefs are lined up behind him).

With all the time we've wasted watching absolute bilge on Netflix we don't understand how we missed out on the eminently watchable K-Chicken War. As the name suggests that was a cooking competition focusing on Korean fried chicken. It was won by South Korean chef Byung Tae Ahn, who was crowned Grand Champion. Now the chef is gearing up for a busy autumn having

One of the world's best bars is popping up for a month at The Emory in Knightsbridge. We went to check out Tato Giovannoni's cocktails and bar food at their rooftop bar.

It's been almost three years since the Mark Hix restaurant, Pharmacy 2, closed its doors at Damien Hirst's Newport Street Gallery in Vauxhall. But now we bring you news of new life in the old restaurant space. It's about to reopen as Pario, a concept popup run by chefs Charlie Bryant and George Browne.

Dubbed the viral bag of the season, the Nik Bentel x Lidl Croissant bag took just two minutes to sell out when it launched a few weeks ago. The American designer, whose previous kooky food bags retailed for hundreds of dollars, made the headlines with his leather bakery bag (made to look like the store's pastry paper bags) and a crescent-shaped leather purse inspired by the supermarket's pastry

If you're a homesick Irish expat, London's food offerings have of late been very much in your favour. If you've been hankering for a chicken fillet roll, for example, you can now head to Homeboy in Islington or the hugely popular Emerald Eats stall in Broadway Market.
