Hackney Coterie Restaurant

"The restaurant is very nice & warm, with friendly staff, very attentive. The wine selection was good, with lovely reds available. The general food was very fresh with interesting tastes like fennel in bread which was amazing and very fresh trout. However our only comment was the desert was inedible, so sweet you couldn't taste anything else, which is sad because it was the last moment of the meal. Overall, the place is lovely and the savoury is fresh with great tastes, but would not recommend the desert"

"I would give a 2 but the beef with mushrooms made me give a three. Average experience, average place (too noisy and a messy TESCO next to it). Huge waiting time and super expensive for what it is."

"Came here for my birthday and it was divine. The team accommodated 12 of us and made it extra special. The wine was to die for and the set menu even more so. Thanks so much!"

"Nestled aside the station, the facade is inconspicuous and perhaps easily missed. But for the initiated, arriving Inside the lofty and simple space offers deep refrain from the adjacent frenetic five points node. I was very much expecting to leave hungry for a bag of chips having been humiliated for my inadequate wino knowledge but the reality was far different. Although the offering is sharp and accomplished there was no stifling pretence, instead a relaxing and almost communal setting. The set menu was both generous and delicately composed. The service relaxed but rigourous. I get the sense the Coterie is still taking its first steps and may well soon me catalysed to dizzy gastronomic heights. But if they can retain the sense of humility which seemingly underpins their current operation I'm sure they'll go far"
