The Hunter S: Pub in Hackney, London

The Hunter S is a food spot in Islington that takes music as seriously as cooking. The kitchen does straightforward, honest cooking. The bar hosts regular soul and funk programming. Open-decks nights and Sunday sessions are the thing here, drawing a crowd genuinely interested in both the food and the music equally. The space works for lunch alone on a quiet weekday, the bar empty and all focus on the kitchen. But when DJs come in, the whole atmosphere shifts. Islington has plenty of good places to eat well, but fewer that treat the food and the music with equal weight.
