Eat 17 Hackney

The burgers here are good, if a bit too saucy sometimes. The chips are delicious. Lovely bakery and nice coffee. The upstairs restaurant is closed until August and will open up again with a similar menu to the former 'burger bar ' downstairs. Friendly staff and a fun atmosphere.

2 things gave away this restaurant 's firm hipster character even before we arrived was the fact it was stationed in Homerton and the fact it is above a Spar. It is a big, spacious restaurant with a traditional, art deco style decor so not your average pop up. We ordered off the downstairs burger menu and the burgers were really excellent i would have liked to have tried something off the main menu but sadly nothing really seemed to jump off the menu at me all the dishes just seemed to have too much going on so I went for the safe option of burger The dessert was very underwhelming I will add here i am not a fan of deconstructed anything so the deconstructed sticky toffee pudding type dessert was not really up my street plus if you actually added all the bits together it would have made the world 's tiniest dessert

Our daughter and boyfriend took us there on a visit to see her and said she was taking us to the Spar for a burger. We were very surprised by the location and delighted by the burger which was excellent. Fantastic food at a really good price. The restaurant is at the front of the Spar which in itself has some wonderful food) Oh the fries are exceptional!

After many visits it is still one of my favourite places to go to, excellent food, great service and an all round brilliant time

I've been dying to come here since it opened but kept falling foul of the information on opening hours on the website which was and still is) conflicting, and I arrived on a couple of occasions to find it closed. I ordered the panko crumbed halloumi wrap, and was disappointed to just get a pretty rubbish wrap actually the wrap itself was cold, there was no crumb on the few small pieces of halloumi which was the whole reason I ordered it), hardly any guacamole, and way too much sloppy slaw. It was one of the worst halloumi wraps I've eaten, so I left the vast majority of it : The onion rings I had were fine but a bit underdone and I could have done with a couple more in the portion, while the fries were good but the portion was too big for one really it would be better to serve a bit less and reduce the price rather than create waste. Overall, a big disappointment from someplace I had high hopes for.
