Opened in July 2024 in a converted pub on the Islington and Hackney border, Goodbye Horses pairs a ten-metre oak bar and quadraphonic speakers with a rotating natural-wine list and seasonal small plates. Won a Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2026.
Tables go well in advance, even on a Tuesday. Walk-ins at the bar are accepted but a table is not guaranteed, so arrive before 6:30pm or book.
Wine by the glass runs £6 to £12.50 and small plates £10 to £22. Lovely, but it sits above typical local prices.
