Morito is one of Hackney’s most popular restaurants. It’s a mixed of Mediterranean cuisines, with all dishes served on small plates. The menu changes regularly but it never disappoints and there’s always great vegetarian and Vegan options. Booking in advance is recommended.

London Fields Station is across the road from our house and will take you directly into Liverpool Street Station. It’s a short walk to both Brick Lane and Shoreditch from Liverpool Street Station. Hackney Central Station is a 8 min walk from our place and you can easily access central london by taking this overground with a change onto an underground line.
