The veggie Benedict eggs! A tasty mouth feast. Also the blueberry pancakes. We went there twice in a row, I had to try them. A really cool place & nice staff. It can be a bit slow, the kitchen being small and all, but relax cause it’s worth it.
Always a pleasure! One of the best breakfasts in London . The Staff are charming even though it’s always rammed the food is very fresh and inspiring. Queues are often very long on the weekends, and for good reason, they really know how to kill those hangovers with one swoop of porky deliciousness.
Never once had a bad meal. Best update on a greasy spoon in London. Staff charming, food very tasty and the coffee if you like a filter coffee is amazing. Can’t understand the semi negative reviews here so felt obliged to write my first review, they can’t really help it that they are so popular particularly on weekends and it’s a small space but in my opinion well worth the wait. Can’t recommend enough.
I had such high hopes after reading the menu for Hash E8. Unfortunately my experience wasn’t as sweet.Our visit was off to a bad start when we arrived around 10am on a Saturday to find a queue out of the door. We were stood waiting at the door for a good 20+ minutes, whilst the staff wandered around and ignored us. I asked the person in front of me if they’d been told how long the wait was – nope. We both agreed it would have been nice just to be acknowledged.When we were seated we ordered the Pulled Pork Hash and the Chorizo and Sweet Potato Hash, with a side of French Toast. We had hoped for a latte, but unfortunately they only sell filter coffee here (never mind). The Pulled Pork Hash was deliciously greasy, and the accompanying crackling was very much welcomed. A great dish. The Chorizo and Sweet Potato Hash wasn’t as good unfortunately. The spinach overpowered the chorizo and sweet potato (that’s impressive), and the poached eggs were well done (no runny yolk). Unfortunately the interesting sounding umami dust was a let down, and was barely noticeable. The French Toast was pretty good, and is definitely worth ordering alongside your main.The presentation is lacking at Hash E8, but that isn’t much of a problem. Away from the plates, the interior is simple and similar to most of the other places in Dalston – shabby chic. It can get pretty noisy, and very busy, even early on a Saturday morning. Maybe that says more than my review can? Ultimately my visit was very average, and I probably would consider going back. But only if someone suggested it. bloomzy.co.uk
When I first saw the pics London the inside instagrammed from Hash E8 I got super excited. I immediately suggested we go and try it out, the very next weekend. Stat!And so we did, this weekend falling on the one Saturday in about five weeks Id been horridly hungover, and meaning I wasnt able to get myself out of the house much before 3. (And I returned to bed straight after brunch.) So, was it worth leaving my bed for however briefly? Yes, I think so, although it was a little rough around the edges.They do brunch all day on weekends, and in the week as well, although they also do normal lunch options then. At the moment they only stay open until 5 but we were told they have plans to extend that and have their license all set up, theyre just still quite busy getting it all properly running. They must only be a few weeks old.So, we rocked up just an hour before they shut. They have a couple of sweet options that sound delicious (stuffed French toast!) and many savoury options that sound equally tempting. They clearly also have a fondness for pig, with a piggy treat or option of adding one on nearly every dish. All music to my ears. Stephen had the special a plate of pulled pork, potatoes, mushrooms and onions. I had the Hash benedict. With pork belly slice.I sometimes think the foodie gods do not smile upon Stephen. Im often more than happy with my choice while his is underwhelming. And so it was the case here, but mainly because the advertised mushrooms werent present, meaning his plate was a little meagre. We asked the waitress about this and she was duly mortified (especially as theyd kinda forgotten my pork, although it was brought out just as I was peering under my egg to see if it was there). They quickly rustled up a side of mushrooms with parsley, and Stephen added them to his plate. He said they made all the difference and seemed much happier after that. Our waitress (who was lovely, really) also gave us a complimentary diet coke each to make up for it.But what about mine? Well, mine was pretty fab to be honest. Atop two fat, crispy hash browns sat a mound of kale, giving the dish a hefty iron tang, with two perfectly poached eggs. I highly recommend adding the belly pork I got two bits which slotted easily under the eggs and gave the whole thing a nice salty, meaty high note. I was stuffed by the time Id finished it all. The only thing that I would have added to both dishes was some hot sauce, but we could have just asked we noted someone else did just that.You are also welcome to add whatever sides you might want and pretty much every ingredient listed in the dishes can also be added as a side so you can mix and match to your hearts content.Hash itself just feels like a cute little caf, not overly trendy, just basic and friendly. My seat had colourful astro-turf style upholstery but apart from water being served in milk bottles and a big slab with the special on it, there was no uber-quirkiness going on.I think they may still be finding their feet but even with our little mishaps, Im giving them the benefit of the doubt. Anywhere that does brunch all day is A-OK in my book, and I just have to try that French Toast! jaminaward.wixsite.com
I was alerted to this delicious little cafe by an Instagram post of a delicious looking English muffin. It was love at first sight… I easily nabbed a table and ordered myself a latte. Unfortunately here your own coffee choice is filtered, so i politely declined and wondered how I would make it through the morning caffeine-free. A quick glance at the menu calmed any fears. A delicious mix of interesting flavours and different combinations litters the menu. I ordered the chorizo and sweet potato hash- a glorious mix of spinach alongside the two main ingredients, plus black pudding and eggs. Everything I wanted and more. I managed to be extremely jealous of my dining partners order- the Pig Muffin, an English muffin with sausage patty, bacon, pork belly, egg, bacon jam, cheese, hash brown and chorizo and tomato jam. Jayyysus! A heart attack in a meal- but a heart attack worth having. I love a place that provides scrumptious food that deviates from the norm. The focus on a breakfast hash in most dishes ticks this box for me. The throw back to the 60s diner style fit out is quirky and although not exactly warm, reflects the ‘is exactly what it says on the tin’ nature of this new brunch hotspot. londonbrekkies.wordpress.com
