The venue features a spacious two-floor layout with various seating and standing options, a modern interior design aesthetic and multiple DJ setups, making it an ideal space for private events.

Jim and Tonic Distillery, on the other hand, focuses on sustainable urban gin distilling, offering a range of handcrafted gin options. KRAFT Dalston also offers a fully stocked bar with a wide selection of drinks, including craft beers, spirits, and bespoke cocktails.

When it comes to food, the kitchen showcases a fusion of Latin American and Japanese cuisine - all designed to complement the diverse range of beverages available at the venue. The restaurant offers a decadent brunch, with options from pastries and bowls such as the matcha yogurt bowl, to heartier lunch dishes such as the Nativo wrap or steak sandwich.

Nestled in Dalston, KRAFT Dalston is just a short walk from both Dalston Kingsland and Dalston Junction stations.

    I visited Kraft Dalston three weeks ago before heading to the nearby Rio Cinema. The service was fast and friendly, and the atmosphere was lovely, making it a pleasant place to sit and relax. Unfortunately, the food and drinks were a bit disappointing. The Eggs Benedict weren’t great – the bread was hard, and the dish could have used more seasoning or spice. The mojito was also underwhelming, with barely any rum and no sweetness at all. It had the potential to be a great experience, but the food and drinks really let it down. Hopefully, they can improve on these aspects because the setting and service are nice.

    Enjoyed a visit last Friday! Staff are amazing, professional and friendly! They make their own gin (4 different tastes - needless to say I tried every single one!) The bar and restaurant looks absolutely fabulous. Food was very tasty - esp that humours with pork bits on top was otherworldly! Toilets were clean and tidy. Tables set to detail. It fits every occasion - a drink after work, date, birthday, you name it! Music was a little bit too loud in the restaurant which was fixed in due course. Overall a very very positive experience. Definitely a place to return to. I cannot recommend them enough!

    A huge missed opportunity. As a local, I was excited to try out the restaurant and roof terrace at Kraft Dalston, a welcome change from a Turkish meal, whilst lovely, is really the only other option in the area. I was shocked to see the restaurant only had high bar stools, and to pay £12 for a tiny weak cocktail in a plastic glass on the roof terrace was criminal, you can get x2 amazing cocktails for £9 in a bar just up the road! The information on the website was confusing, I had to phone up to get the following information. - Is there a lift to roof terrace? (Accessibility information would be very clear on a website.) - Does the roof terrace serve food? Also, when booking, you can only have 1 hour on the roof terrace and 1.5 hours in the restaurant, both of which were empty when we arrived at nearly 2pm! I’m sure the food in the restaurant is lovely, but as I have mobility issues, there is no way I could sit on a high bar stool to eat, and the roof terrace bar menu was far too limited. So, we left and had a gorgeous Middle Eastern meal nearby! Sorry, but what a shame.
