Shoreditch hotel The Curtain is no more. It's just been taken over by Accor - and they're going to relaunch it as Mondrian Shoreditch.

The previous hotel was a complete new-build so, decor aside, we can't see any major structural changes happening but it does mean that the hotel restaurant will change - so Marcus Samuelsson's Red Rooster has left the

The Light Bar is taking over a listed building in Shoreditch that once held "The Light". Expect a modern British menu in this three-floored affair, with bar, restaurant and a large terrace too.

Next weekend we'll all be honorary Welsh folk - if it means getting hold of one of Brat's legendary cheesecakes.

To celebrate the upcoming St David's Day, the Shoreditch restaurant is opening for a weekend to sell its world-class baked Basque cheesecake. They'll use the sale to raise funds for The Wickers Charity with all proceeds going to the charity which supports young people and families in East London.

Tomos Parry's Shoreditch restaurant started doing brunch just before London locked down for a second time. We managed to get in just before that to try it out. 

Now that Spring in Somerset House is closed for the lockdown, Skye Gyngell is taking the restaurant on the road, launching in Shoreditch as a farm shop. 

Opening on Redchuch Road, Spring to Go will be filled with produce from with Fern Verrow farm in Herefordshire and Heckfield Home Farm (Skye is chef at Heckfield Place too), alongside food from Spring itself. 

The Spring bakery sounds fabulous

This new restaurant in Shoreditch takes Mediterranean food (with an emphasis on Greece) as its starting point, headed up by an ex-Caravan chef.

After being without Tomos Parry's excellent Brat restaurant for a few months - it returned in two different incarnations. 

Over the past month, one of the huge successes of post-lockdown pivoting has been the Brat x Climpson’s Arch residency. It saw Parry going back to his roots as he had previously been in the kitchen there

She'll be taking on the menu in the upstairs restaurant with dishes based on British provenance. That'll

Fancy getting a taste of Shoreditch but aren't quite ready to go on public transport yet? Then the replacement that's taking over the old American Car Wash site might be for you. For six days, it's going to be taken over by Meatless Farm to create the M*** F*** Drive-Thru.

It is - more or less - exactly as it sounds, but the drive-thru also has a lane for pedestrians, e-scooters and bicycles. And if you

Last year, Mãos in Shoreditch won a coveted Michelin star, but just a few months later one of its founders Nuno Mendes, announced that he was leaving.

Now there's a maximum of eight diners allowed, with four tables of two replacing

Their Soho venue has been closed throughout the lockdown but now that Bar Swift (ranked 41 on the 50 Best Bars in the World list last year) are back, they're already getting ready to open a second bar in Shoreditch (where Floripa used to be). 

This venue will be an all-day affair, opening at 8am on weekdays. Of course, you won't be able to pick up a cocktail then, so they'll shift to coffee and brunch dishes in the mornings. There will be Neal's
