New Opening: Launch Of The Victoria In Mile End, With Exceptional Food
Tucked away
on a rooftop in East London chickens are laying fresh eggs; runner beans are
climbing the walls; tomato plants are sprouting; marrows are growing;
strawberry plants and edible flowers are blooming. All destined to appear on the plates of diners
at the newly refurbished Victoria in Grove Road.
This
traditional, iconic building has been styled by the team behind the Somers Town
Coffee House, bringing a touch of style, kitsch and hidden treasures to the
people of Mile End with the Victoria opening on Friday 22nd August.
Start the
morning with a freshly ground aromatic, coffee served by the charismatic
Aussie, Toby, at the newly created artisan coffee bar accessible both inside
and out. The welcoming environment, with
cosy corners and big social sharing tables will be hard to leave, so why not
stay to sample the best in British Tapas, all created with flair and aplomb in
the bustling open kitchen. Ingredients
are all sourced from local suppliers, mixing up the rooftop delights to create
a tasty, colourful array of dishes to share, with bespoke dishes offered to
satisfy the most delicate of palates. With the food proudly stamped as UK
sourced the team at the Victoria know where every single morsel on your plate
has been farmed. Bring the family, friends and pets too - it's dog friendly.
The first
floor houses Ssshh… Supper Club, a trio of themed rooms including 'The Kitchen
Room' where you can view the chefs creating the meals of the day. The Board
Room, perfect for parties and secret gatherings, hides a secret stash of aged
and oaked scotch that will be a fine accompaniment to any celebration.
Accompanying
the eclectic range of morsels and menus the pub offers a range of great beers.
You'll be spoilt for choice with eight cask ales, including Bombardier, Eagle
and Young's Special, with a guest appearing each week.
Cocktails top
the list in Magri's Cocktail Bar, tucked away behind a mirrored wall where you
can spot the cocktail lovers on the way in long before they spot you. No drinks
list exists, just tons of artistry coupled with an apple crate of spirits and
magical ingredients. Your personal mixologist will be conjuring up a treat at
your table. Let loose your imagination
and banish your cares as you indulge in new creations. With seating for 40,
it's the ideal hideaway. Master classes are on offer too - perfect for that
special occasion.
Tucked away
in the generous sized pub garden is Charlie's Cocktail Caravan, complete with
picket fence. The cosy caravan
comfortably accommodates parties up to 8.
Food and drink is available to pre-order making it the ultimate venue
for those intimate gatherings.
“The Victoria
has an exciting new future, and fitting for the people who live in the area,”
said Tim Foster, Director of the Yummy Pub Co. “Seven pubs have disappeared
from around this area and we were determined that the Victoria would not
succumb to the same fate. We will be
working with local suppliers, local producers and local people to ensure The
Victoria remains a central part of the local community in every way.”
15 local
people have been recruited to work at the pub.
