Hash E8 - Hackney

Brunch is an amazing meal and is what weekends are made for. Turn the alarm clock off, roll out of bed at a leisurely time and head straight for a meal where you can consume enough to cover two GUILT-FREE. Even the most steadfast of three meal a day advocates can surely buy into that concept. But of course brunch does come with its inherent risks, one being if it isn't good, you've not just had one bad meal but rather two. That however is not an issue at Hash E8 With plates of the chorizo sweet potato hash with black pudding and the Pig muffin to call company, the day was shaping up to be an epic. The Pig muffin in particular was an absolute beast. Containing a sausage patty...read more

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...read more

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.

At the moment they only stay open until 5 but we were told they have...read more

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...read more
