Arguably one of the best date spots in East London, Sager & Wilde is a wine bar on Hackney Road established on the back of a successful pop-up venture. Located in the refurbished, historical British Lion Pub, the interior is stripped down and taken back to its historical roots.
The main attraction is the bar's impressive selection of wines available by the glass. Not only do wine enthusiasts love the selection, but they love that everything is available at a fraction of the price of the cost in top restaurants. Guests can also choose from a selection of wines from the super high end list that is printed out daily, keeping things fresh and exciting.
As far as food goes, the bar serves mostly cold snacks, but the well known Sager & Wilde grilled cheese is also available! The simple menu is created using products made by the in-house chef as well as sourced from local suppliers and producers.
n one sentence, why should I go? Because Sager + Wilde is one of the only places in London you can get exceptional quality Californian wine from sommeliers who know a lot about it in a cozy date-spot worthy setting that comes with no snobbery; it’s the real deal.
