  • Brunch and Canalside Sessions

    Multiple dates available
    Ease into your weekend at Grow, Hackney Wick’s canalside escape, where the food is full of flavour, the drinks are flowing, and the soundtrack is live and global. From 11am to 3pm, enjoy a vibrant homemade brunch menu featuring bold, seasonal dishes like our Kimchi & Cheese Toastie, rich and smoky Shakshuka, Potato & Black Bean Hash, or a colourful Mezze Platter piled high with falafel, muhammara, roasted vegetables and za’atar flatbreads. From 1pm to 4pm, settle in for Canalside Sessions, a free afternoon of world-class live music on our floating pontoon stage. On Saturdays, master conga player Williams Cumberbache performs solo, blending Afro, Latin and jazz rhythms into a deeply uplifting and intimate live set. On Sundays, he invites special guests – some of the best jazz and global musicians in London – for a rotating series of exceptional collaborations. It’s a rare chance to experience high-calibre musicianship in a relaxed, sunlit setting by the canal, and a real treat for music lovers and weekend wanderers alike. Add a little fizz to your afternoon with our Spritz Happy Hour, with two for £15, or enjoy two Crodinos for £10 if you’re going alcohol-free.

          Hip, urban, vibrant, inclusive, welcoming, intimate, relaxed venue, next to the canal, open-air live-music space. With food, drink, plenty of seating both inside & out, suitable for all weathers. Even more glorious during lovely sunny weather.
