Rewritten Insider: Hackney Wick

Welcome to Hackney Wick - home to the Rewritten flagship store! This East London area is packed with some of the most excellent bars, restaurants and cafes that London has to offer. We are well aware of how difficult it can be to get all of your bridesmaids in one place, so whether you are looking for the perfect pre-appointment brunch spot, post-appointment beer and pizza or a light lunch bite - we have the lowdown on where to go in the area.

The newest addition to Fish Island - Lanterna. Based on the canal side, Lanterna is a fusion of a deli, bar and pizzeria, and its not to be missed! Perfect for a morning coffee and croissant or an afternoon/evening pizza with pals, its the perfect place to catch up before or after your bridesmaids appointment!

You'll be able to find Rule Zero very easily, based just up the road on Monier Bridge, opposite the Rewritten Studio. Head up over the bridge that takes you towards Stratford, and you'll find this lovely cafe/restaurant on the canal which offers great coffee, lunch and booze! Perfect for any time of the day, before or after your appointment. They also have a games hub upstairs if playing a bit of table top gaming is a bit of you!

 CRATE BREWERY

Located next to Hackney Wick station Crate Brewery serves the most delicious stone-baked pizzas alongside a fantastic beer selection (and wine too if beer isn't your thing) everyday from 12pm. In summer there is no greater spot than on one of their benches by the River Lea. Try the truffle and sage pizza, trust us, it is epic.

 BARGE EAST

A stones throw from the Rewritten showroom, Barge East is an 114 year old Dutch barge serving locally sourced small plate dishes in the warm and cosy inside dining space (there is a log fire, how cute is that) or overlooking the Olympic village from the outdoor deck. The barge is also draped in fairy lights come evening so it looks pretty damn magical on a summers evening.

This canal-side bar and kitchen has an excellent cocktail list and flies the flag for local artists with a small in-house arts space and revolving roster of guest DJs. Located close to Hackney Wick, team Rewritten are big fans of Number 90, we even celebrated Ana's (our Head of CS) 30th birthday there. Serving food daily between 12pm and 9.30pm.

 BREAKFAST CLUB HACKNEY WICK

A ten minute walk from Rewritten, London's famous Breakfast Club has multiple locations but our favourite has to be the canal-side Hackney eatery. Forming part of the innovative Here East campus (there are oodles of restaurants and bars here including a great Vegan place called Mother so check them out), the Breakfast Club is famous for its breakfast burritos, salted margaritas and bold decor. Call us crazy but we think it is entirely appropriate to eat breakfast at any time of the day!

This award-winning sustainable seafood restaurant by super talented chef Tom Brown serves up simple but sophisticated sharing plates that change daily. An open kitchen, marble-topped bar and Michelin star quality food make Cornerstone a must for all fancy food lovers and would be a great place for a slap up meal post appointment.

 

We have literally just scratched the surface of how much this exciting and eclectic borough has to offer but hope we have given you a taste for more. Now what are you waiting for? Book an appointment to come and see us!! Quite frankly, it would be rude not to.
