Pop-up

A new pop-up with a difference is about to hit London. Opening as part of the launch of the game Diablo IV (a big deal if you're into gaming),  Lilith & Co will be an over-18s-only chocolate shop offering what they're calling "goremet chocolate". Lilith is one of the main characters in the game, in case you're not familiar. 

Inside the shop, they'll

They only recently launched at The Ritzy in Brixton, but now the Indian-inspired and plant-based food of En Root has opened up in another new home, The Railway Tavern in Tulse Hill.

They've just taken over the kitchen there and this makes it their fourth

Having already nailed down one of NYC's coolest roving restaurants as a pop up, Shoreditch wine bar Oranj is keeping the momentum going with their next residency. They've persuaded one of Mexico City's best taquerias to make the journey to London for a month.

Cariñito's been wowing foodies in Mexico for the past few years with their short but great menus and handmade tortillas. The 'hipster taqueria' uses

Katsu & Buns are doing right what is says there in the name - katsu curry and bao buns. They've been delivering for a while but are now getting a pop-up space in Islington at The Chapel Bar Terrace. 

The main menu features small plates and a special bao menu on Saturdays. So you'll find things like:

• Ebi Katsu - lightly coated king prawns, sweet chili

It’s not often we have cause at Hot Dinners to speak of Tesco-related matters, but when the supermarket chain and retailer starts veering into dining-out territory, we feel it’s our duty. Tesco is opening a pub in honour of the King’s Coronation. Yes, you read that right.

Called The King in the Castle, it’s only a

Last year, Champagne house Veuve Clicquot caused quite the stir with their breakfast cafe pop-up in Soho. Now the team behind that are back with a new offering, this time in Piccadilly. The 2023 iteration of the Sunny Side Up Café will be part of their

We quickly became big fans of Kebab Queen, the counter restaurant below Le Bab in Covent Garden where everything's served to you on a heated countertop. It all sounds mad, but it works really, really well. 

They're now changing things up for the next few months, bringing in a guest chef to run the counter (while chef Manu Canales takes a break). It's MasterChef The

This summer there's another enticing reason to visit Borough Market, with word of West African chef Adejoké (‘Joké’) Bakare’s forthcoming pop-up at Globe Tavern. The two-month residency, Joké & Friends, will act as something of a taster before the opening of her new Chishuru restaurant in Fitzrovia, which ...

Following on from the huge success of their Dior Cafe and Louis Vuitton x Yayoi Kusama pop-up, Harrods are at it again. They've just unveiled their latest designer collaboration - the Prada Caffè.

Open all day, serving everything from breakfast through to cocktails and bites for aperitivo, the cafe will be on the ground floor of the store until the end of the year. The fashion house says the cafe's been inspired by

We do love a good sandwich and if you do too, then a new pop-up that's coming to Vinegar Yard should be well worth a look. 

The Experimental Sandwich Shop comes from the people behind Bad Boy Pizza Society and it's all inspired by a

If there's one restaurant that seems synonymous with Hollywood (to us in the UK at least) it's Wolfgang Puck's Spago (the chef also caters the main Oscars afterparty). If you've ever fancied eating like the LA elite, now you don't even have to cross the Atlantic as Puck is bringing Spago to the UK for four days only. 

Taking over his UK restaurant, Cut at 45 Park Lane will be a special Spago pop-up,

Over the past few years once shopping hours are over, the Supermarket of Dreams in Notting Hill has been turning itself into an irregular popup izakaya showcasing various chefs and their take on sushi. Now they're about to launch it as a permanent evening spot.

Izakaya Nights features a long communal table running the length of the shop. It has pretty much a dream team running it. The chefs are

Good news for cocktail aficionados, with the return of Oriole, previously one of the World’s 50 Best Bars, to a new location. After closing its doors on New Year’s Day, as a result of Smithfield Market’s redevelopment and the Museum of London’s relocation, Oriole is hoping to summon its former Farringdon fans just over Blackfriars Bridge to The Hoxton Southwark.

It’s a

Selfridges have teamed up with Loewe, Studio Ghibli and Balboste for the immersive Howl's Moving Castle Cafe, Calcifer's Kitchen. We popped down to try out one of the hottest tickets in town. 

Here's a hot ticket for any expat Hot Dinners reader who happens to be in New York. St John are heading across the pond for a one night only pop up that's pretty much guaranteed to be a sell-out.

They're teaming up with clothing brand Drake's to bring the St. JOHN Drake's Diner to Brooklyn's Long Island Bar. Tickets for the event don't come cheap though - they're £230 (or about $275). For that though, you are
