Darling’s is a fresh pasta eatery in East London. Overlooking Olympic Park, the eatery is a hidden gem in Fish Island where the industrial and creative spaces converge. Roman Road, Bow, Hackney Wick and Victoria Park are just a stroll away from your weekly treat of freshly made pasta and wine from independent producers. Egle Loit, a trained pasta chef, has previously popped up mostly around East and North London, creating a buzz with her pre-restaurant residency at Vestry House Museum in 2023.Founder of Darling’s cares dearly about the craft that fresh pasta making requires. “One can turn humble ingredients into abundance with skill,” shares the restaurateur. Darling’s is designed to be an open space to be shared between the guests and the team, therefore there are no barriers between the service area and the dining area. You’ll find yourself connecting by enjoying your meal at the shared table. Those, who like to hide away, can still do it at separate tables.

    I cannot recommend Eadn Lounge highly enough! From the moment I walked through the doors, I was greeted with warm, genuine smiles that made me feel instantly at ease. Despite running late for my reservation, the staff went above and beyond to accommodate me without a hint of frustration or rush. They were incredibly understanding and ensured my experience was nothing short of perfect. The service was impeccable—attentive yet unobtrusive. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, making me feel like a truly valued guest. The ambiance was stunning, striking the perfect balance between chic and cozy, and the staff’s professionalism was matched only by their kindness. Eadn Lounge didn’t just meet my expectations; they exceeded them in every possible way. If you’re looking for a place that prioritizes exceptional service and genuine hospitality, this is the spot. I’ll definitely be back and can’t wait to tell everyone I know about this hidden gem!

    We had the tasting menu with wine pairings and thoroughly enjoyed the night. The overall feel was casual but the level of service made the evening special. The wine pairings in particular were all super interesting choices with interesting tidbits about of the wine makers given with each glass. Would highly reccomend for a special dinner.
