“A stones throw away from Dalston Kingsland Station you will find The Dalston Jazz Bar. It’s a full on restaurant up until 10 PM. They serve an array of fresh seafood as well as yummy beer from a local brewery and cocktails. The live band plays throughout the night with a few breaks. After 10 PM they clear all tables and chairs to create a dance floor and this place then really starts to rock! We don't do vegan or vegetarian food. We specialize in fish. Tuesdays are our LGBTQ night, but everyone is welcome. Tuesdays will now feature live jazz bands."

    Clos Maggiore is a brilliant, atmospheric venue. The staff are warm, friendly and professional and the food is excellent. We were made to feel very welcome and despite the two-hour dining window allocated, there was no pressure on us to leave. This was our third visit and it was amazing every time.

    We arrived and our table was ready and waiting. We ordered some wine straiggt away while we looked at the menu. The service was really fab, great vibe in the restaurant. The meal was very tasty, particularly the chicken main dish and the selection of veggies options was great. We had a lemencello for dessert and a complimentary piece of cake to share which finished our meal off perfectly 👌 would recommend to a friend and would go again. Enjoy!!
