"Snackbar’s hidden garden with green fringed parasols is very Cote d'Azur by way of Dalston. Even the dishes at the cafe are uplifting: the creative twists on classic breakfast and lunch dishes—a kimchi croque madame, paratha turkey pie, tahini banana bread—don't stick to any one cuisine, but work very well.

"This Dalston cafe is home to a kimchi and stichelton toastie that keeps us up at night wondering if we can ever go back to a regular toastie. Snackbar also has an outdoor setup in the form of a lush, secret garden at the back." - oliver feldman, rianne shlebak
"Snackbar—a bright Dalston cafe with creative, brunchy dishes—feels like sunshine even on a rainy day. But it really comes into its own during summer, when the hidden garden, with green and white fringed parasols that are very Cote d'Azur by way of east London, opens. Order the caesar salad with a jammy egg and savour a lunch break in the peaceful garden. " - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
"Caesar is the hardest-working salad in the business—converting lettuce-haters everywhere with its cheesy, garlicky goodness. The one at chilled-out cafe Snackbar in Dalston has leaves that are left whole—no aggressive ‘shrettuce’ here—and is topped with jammy eggs, moist, bite-sized chicken, crispy shards of chicken skin, and a generous dusting of parmesan. The dressing has the right amount of garlic and fishiness, without you feeling like you need to pop a mint. For an even more joyful experience, take it out back to the charming, hidden garden.

"Snackbar is a breakfast, lunch, and weekend brunch cafe on Dalston Lane serving things like a moreish kimchi croque madame in an airy space. Thanks to the comforting and creative menu, and the summer-ready garden space, Snackbar feels like a reprieve from the sometimes chaotic energy of Dalston. A slice of tahini banana bread in the suntrap outside space is the perfect 2pm pick-me-up, or come by on the weekend for a fancy McMuffin-inspired creation." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, daisy meager
