Cornerstone
Hackney Wick
With Cornerstone, supernova chef Tom Brown raised Hackney Wick’s game to destination dining status, and showed that a seafood restaurant could be contemporary. Here, in a coolly minimalist room accented with chic blues and dusky greys, oysters come pickled or with delicious hot sauce, nutty brown crab comes atop a delectable crumpet, and there’s dayboat fish with a roast chicken butter sauce that will turn your world upside down.
