"Bedales has adapted to the imperfect storm of oven-like weather and enforced social distancing by allowing its seating to run out and over the streets of Borough Market like a scene from Fellini’s Roma. Enjoying a post-work glass here is a thing of genuine beauty. The independent, family-owned wine bar rarely misses its mark and, honestly, if someone can’t find something they fancy drinking at Bedales... All hope is lost. Near neighbour Flor is also a great shout if seeking pizza to go with wine. Site two on Mare Street in Hackney has a has good outdoor seating, too." - Lucas Oakeley
