Found a permanent home at Here East, which is excellent news for those of you hunting for the perfect chicken wing. There are five varieties on offer for you to wrap your mouth around — from sticky'n'sweet Korean-style to classic crispy American wings slathered in cheddar sauce and gravy. Whether any of them deserve the perfect title or not it up to you, but it's damn fun trying them all out. Wash it all down with a chilled glass of bourbon or sugar-laced cocktail.

Manages to serve up exquisite sharing plates of seafood without any pretension whatsoever. In reality, it is special. Very special. Run by celebrated chef, Tom Brown, simplicity and sophistication combine with the likes of pickled oysters, crab rarebit crumpet and melt-in-the-mouth scallops served with coral butter. But the relaxed service and modern decor mean it's not a place where you need to worry about your airs and graces.

The floating dining room moored on the River Lea. It's a total charmer, a 114-year old Dutch barge, cosy as you like, with a penchant for seasonal fare like creamy London burrata, lemon sole with rhubarb and spiced Szechuan aubergine. And that's not the only floating dining experience you'll find in Hackney Wick. Docked outside Crate Brewery is Alfred Le Roy, a restaurant-on-a-boat (technically a wide beam canal boat) that makes trips along the Lea on the weekends. Hire it in its entirety for a special occasion or sign up for one of their regular food and drink cruises and enjoy Neal's Yard cheese sharing platters and charcuterie boards on the high Hackney seas.

Crate Brewery's White Building also boasts Silo, a zero-waste restaurant where the food is as impressive as the ethos. Understated furniture (from up-cycled and recycled materials, of course) and arched ceilings give a sense of grandeur to what is, essentially, an admirably simple concept. Dishes like radish cannelloni, braised beef with peppercorn and parsnip, and pumpkin ice cream are served with honour for local ingredients, while backstage initiatives like direct trade with farmers, reusable vessels and composting leftovers means sustainability is front and centre.
