A New Way to Dine in Spitalfields: Try Our New Food Menu
If you’re searching for one of the best places to eat and drink in Spitalfields, the new food menu at 68 & Shanghai is your sign to book the table, round up the group, and order generously.
Known for its speakeasy-style setting, expertly crafted cocktails, and late-night energy, 68 & Shanghai has now elevated the experience even further with a brand-new food menu designed to perfectly complement drinks, from casual midweek catch-ups to full weekend feasts.
Food Made for Sharing (and Staying Longer)
The new menu is built around shareable plates, bold flavours, and comforting indulgence. Whether you’re grazing between cocktails or settling in for a long evening, the menu flows effortlessly from light bites to heartier plates and indulgent desserts.
Start with snacky plates made for sipping and socialising, think sweet potato fries with smoky chilli mayo, green bean tempura with truffle mayo, chargrilled padrón peppers, and Maldon sea salt edamame. These are the kind of plates that disappear quickly once they hit the table.
Small Plates with Serious Personality
At the heart of the menu are flavour-packed small plates, inspired by Asian and European influences and designed to be ordered tapas-style. Highlights include crispy squid with oriental mayo, salmon ceviche with mango and yuzu, veggie gyoza, chicken teriyaki skewers, and shrimp tempura, all dishes that pair effortlessly with cocktails, wine, or sake.
Perfect for date nights, group dinners, or spontaneous evenings that turn into something more.
When You’re Ready to Feast
For those with bigger appetites, the menu also offers larger plates and indulgent centrepieces. The charcuterie board is a standout, stacked with cured meats, artisan cheeses, sourdough, chutneys, and pickles, ideal for sharing over a bottle (or two) of wine.
And because no great night out should skip dessert, the menu finishes on a sweet note with a classic crème brûlée, the perfect way to round off the evening.
More Than Just Dinner
What makes dining at 68 & Shanghai different is the setting. Spread across four unique floors, the venue offers intimate corners, lively social spaces, and wine-led experiences inside 68, alongside cocktail-focused rooms upstairs. Pair your meal with hand-crafted cocktails, curated wines, or take advantage of wine offers that make staying for “one more glass” almost inevitable.
Whether you’re planning a casual night out, a celebration, or even private hire in Spitalfields, the new food menu gives you one more reason to explore every floor.
