Recent Highlights 

The Cheese Bar in Camden - #NotAPopup - but a re-working of their Camden restaurant to the popular ‘sushi conveyor belt, but with cheese’ Pick & Cheese format that works so well in Seven Dials Market.  I first met Mathew from The Cheese Truck when they did a pop-up in Clapham about 10 years ago, and can still remember my first bite of their toastie!  Since they they have opened 4 restaurants (including one in Berlin) and it was great to try the conveyor belt concept again (I was invited to the pre-launch night).  I’d forgotten what a magical experience it is to see the plates coming round the room towards you, and the combinations are very creatively done - e.g. Cornish gouda paired with a small piece of clotted cream fudge.  Yum!  Now open daily, and their ‘bottomless plates’ night on Wednesdays is only £20 in the Camden restaurant for the first month.

Chef Norman Musa at The King & Co in Clapham - A return visit to Norman’s ‘Makan Makan’ Malaysian residency to try more of his dishes.  This time round I had the prawn laksa - a special but I’m told it will be on for the rest of the run - the Kerabu salad, with kale, coconut & pomegranate seeds, and a classic Chicken Kari - with a side of rice.  Hurry - this one ends on Sun 10th - Daily

Swilipino at Swirl, E10 - Chef Tintin cooks a fusion of Swedish and Filipino dishes, reflecting her heritage, and I’ve been putting up listings of her events for years.  I finally got to eat her food last weekend at Swirl, the wine bar near Leyton Midland station, and it was well worth the wait.  Lovely dumplings - confusingly called ‘potstickers’ on the menu - and then a big bowl of beef in burnt coconut sauce.  Watch out for Tintin’s next pop-ups (she will be at the ESEA centre this Saturday https://www.instagram.com/wednesdays_fun/p/DMKpB50sufH/ )

As always, please check out my map of the pop-ups; they would all really appreciate your support, along with the rest of the hospitality sector.

Please let me know what I’m missing.  


Definition of ‘Pop-up’ - Essentially something temporary (‘go now or miss it’, or an external chef taking over the kitchen of another venue (which is the majority of these, and a growing trend).

The listings this week are broadly arranged by date - ones you can visit today at the beginning, things you need to wait til Saturday for are lower down.

The list has been collated from the past week or so by endlessly scanning Twitter & Insta, reading newsletters, stalking chefs (not literally), enjoying the colder weather, and also reading things that PRs and (more often) chefs & their friends send me.  Please keep sending me your tips and invites - DM-ing on Instagram works best (@londonpopups) or mention me on Twitter (also @londonpopups) - I don't always notice posts on the feed (but I'm pretty good...)

The Oasis pop-up shop in Carnaby Street, Soho

An Oasis pop-up shop has opened at 5-7 Carnaby Street, London, open daily til Sunday 3rd August and selling a good range of merch from T-shirts and other clothing - including the collab with adidas - plus records, posters, and more.

It's a big shop, next door to the North Face shop, and opposite the Puma shop, and quite close to where Liam Gallagher's Pretty Green shop used to be a few years ago.

There is even a big picture of the What's The Story? album cover for fans to pose in front of.

Not surprisingly it is very popular and can get very busy.  I'd recommend booking a slot (seriously - but it is free) to ensure that you can get in.

From the 'Soho' Instagram post - 

Now open on Carnaby Street 🎸📍 @oasis is officially back in Soho - right where it all began.

To celebrate the band’s comeback tour, a brand-new pop-up fan store has opened. Shop exclusive merch, the @adidasuk Originals x Oasis collab, limited-edition vinyls and prints.

Update - so how well is the shop doing..?  This Tweet from Sun 27th July 2025 claims that - 

"Went into the #oasislive25 pop-up shop in Carnaby St.

Asked the person at the till, out of curiosity, how much she reckons they take in a day.

She knew the answer. On Friday (first Wembley gig), they took over £220,000. That's just in one day!" 

When - Daily til Sunday 3rd August 2025

Where - 5-7 Carnaby Street, London, W1F 9PB
