Inspired by the vibrant late-night cultures of New York and London, complete with the undertones of Parisian chic, STEREO will offer a masterfully curated mix of music, food, and drinks. STEREO will feature an extensive drinks menu, American inspired culinary bar classics, and an eclectic and dynamic music programme. Our menu will be developed by Chef-Restauranteur Andrew Clarke, who you have seen at his newest joint Acme Fire Cult in Dalston. His dishes will be inspired by American classics.
