Delamina EAST is where our story began.


Originally born as a residency at Shoreditch House (Soho House Group), Delamina EAST became our first permanent home and remains at the heart of the brand. Today, we are proud to be rated 4.6 stars on TripAdvisor and a Travellers Choice 2025 restaurant recognition earned through consistency, care, and a genuinely people-led culture.


Our food is rooted in our Eastern Mediterranean heritage. We cook the way we grew up eating grilling and roasting fresh, seasonal ingredients, full of goodness, layered with fragrant herbs and spices. The menu is naturally healthy, with outstanding vegan and vegetarian dishes, alongside ethically sourced produce from land and sea. We also run a strong cocktail program and a busy weekend brunch.
