Bistrotheque London | Melting Butter Restaurant Hotspot

If you find yourself on an industrial street in Hackney, you probably won’t realise your proximity to one of the most beautiful brunch spots in London.  Bistrotheque is totally unmarked from the outside, so you’re going to need some gumption to stroll on in through the unmarked door and up the stairs.
