This Japanese restaurant puts modern twists on traditional, home-cooked dishes. The menu boasts all the usual suspects – think melt-in-the-mouth sashimi; piping-hot karage (fried chicken); and succulent charred pork skewers – alongside inventive salads and their own unique sushi roll creations. Interiors-wise, it’s like a Pinterest board come to life, with brushed gold countertops, untreated wooden stools and delicate foliage atop the tables.

its all about the pizza, which Sodo take seriously. All the dough is fermented for 48 hours and then baked at super-hot temperatures so that it’s light and airy with plenty of sourdough tang.

Pancakes are a highlight here, with classic blueberry, bacon and maple for purists; Ribena compote and crème fraiche for the young at heart; and a gluten-free option as well.

This is where you’ll find the best coffee in Clapton, Hackney and even beyond – if you’re a fan of dairy-free milk options, that is, as this café is completely vegan. Lele’s serves breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and weekend brunch in a cosy light-filled space – think superfood-packed yoghurt pots and salads, hearty full English fry-ups (still vegan, of course), ‘cheesy’ toasties and an array of vegan patisserie delights.

This is one of those rare London pubs that feels like it’s been picked up from the countryside and air-dropped down in the capital. Yes, there are the local craft beers and ubiquitous sharing plates, but the menu is unpretentious – think cider-glazed ribs, Cornish mackerel with smoky grilled veg and a seriously decent Bloody Mary. Inside is sleek thanks to the 1950s wood-panelled walls, but with plenty of rustic touches. Then, there’s the huge rear garden – stretches of decking and grass with a ping pong table, blue-and-white striped booths and a number of seaside-style deck chairs. Needless to say, it gets packed in summer.

This large, open space, which opened in 2008 and is tucked away down a side street behind Kingsland High Street, provides a fine home for a wide range of experimental music – including free improv – that exists well outside the mainstream. There's a strong emphasis on the more out-there of underground Japanese artists, but you can expect to encounter everything from Norwegian improv/free jazz/psych-rock power trio Bushmen's Revenge to a talk by minimalist composer Terry Riley.
