Edgar's Bar (Hackney)

• Relaxed interior with sofas and big chairs
• Scrabble and connect 4) which I entertained myself with before brunch arrived
• Sometimes you hit that spot which is simple and unpretentious
• A no nonsense place where the effort is reserved for making good simple food
• As you would expect the clientele are a mixture of tourists drawn to the 'hip East' and the local residing bonafide hipsters
• We sat at a table with mix matched chairs
• What really blew me away were the salad options
• Now at the best of times these can really be boring
• My guest had the heritage tomatoes which is seriously in season with red onions
• It was a good lunch time portion and was the freshest thing she had ever tasted
• Over to mine with a bit of tuna
• Edgars is a bar in the evening with a decent selection of cocktails
• It is especially a god send if you are a vegetarian or vegan looking for good tasting food without the hefty price tag
