"If you have trust issues around the British weather, then, honestly, same. But you don’t need to stress about the weather forecast if you’re heading for an al fresco meal at Brat’s long-term pop-up in this Hackney arch, because they have a dreamy marquee that’s insulated and strung with those ever-trendy exposed lightbulbs. Although realistically the setting is just the tip of the unique dining iceberg here, because it’s the food that truly makes this spot pure magic. They’re serving all of their Basque grill favourites from their Shoreditch restaurant, including the charred anchovy-topped flatbread, the beloved smoky potatoes, and their whole turbot which we have spoken about more than Brexit and the comfort-level of Birkenstocks combined." - Heidi Lauth Beasley
