Pop Brixton turns two this week and they’re celebrating all weekend long.

To warm up to their September event, Field Maneuvers Festival have teamed up with UJ’s fave new venue The Colombian for an all-nighter with Panorama Bar resident and Ostgut label affiliate Nick Höppner. Get on the dancefloor.

TRY:GO:
Max’s Sandwich Shop at BirthdaysSom Saa Lates
 
Regularly touted as London’s best sandwich shop, Max’s has just started their six month residency at Dalston’s Birthdays. We’re told Max’s will stick with their signature ‘meal’ sandwiches: think ham hock with fried egg, piccalilli, and potato, and short rib with sauerkraut, deep-fried broccoli and gravy mayo, plus some new surprises. It’s the first Saturday of the month which means one thing – after evening service winds down, Som Saa lates begins. This month they’ve got Peckham’s Yam Records joining them all night, plus street stall classics like Pad Grapow Gai, washed down with plenty of Krahang Old Fashioneds from the bar.

VISIT:ORDER:
Pergola Paddington CentralFried Chicken at Red Rooster
 
If you’ve been looking for a new outdoor dining spot, this one’s for you. Bringing together bespoke menus from Patty & Bun, Decatur, Mamalan and DF/Mexico, the new Pergola location has got everything covered; seating over 850 guests with 2 bars, resident DJs, a rain roof and day beds. Plus, they take bookings – no more standing to eat your post-work tacos. Forget your Sunday roast this week, because Marcus Samuelsson’s Red Rooster has made its way across the Atlantic from Harlem. Reflecting Samuelsson’s heritage, this is American comfort food with Ethiopian and Swedish twists; think Harlem fried chicken, trucker fries, devilled eggs and meatballs. Arrive hungry.
