This summer, new addition to the Stratford culinary scene, HERA, will be launching their terrace for the very first time – the ultimate Stratford suntrap, offering a taste of the Mediterranean for sun-starved Londoners.

With the capacity to host 80 – 100 covers seated, and up to 150 standing, HERA’s terrace is sure to be the new spot for some sunny boozy lunches, long evening dinners, post-work cocktails and summer events.

Drinkers and diners alike can snack on and share stunning Greek mezze, including Melitzano Salata, Fried Courgette with tzatziki yoghurt, and Tirokafteri to taste the flavours (and sun) from the Greek shoreline. Indulge in HERA’s classic Greek dishes, including the iconic Feta Saganaki with lemon honey, Calamari with aioli, lemon, chilli and coriander, and fresh Seabass Carpaccio with yuzu lemon dressing.

Bask in the sun while indulging on mains such as Lamb Chops with rosemary, Grilled Sea Bass with lemon oil, Grilled Octopus Tentacle served with Fava bean and pico de gallo, Moussaka, and Orzo Seafood Pasta with calamari, prawns, clams and tomato sauce.

HERA also has an extensive range of unique cocktails, from signatures including the Helen of Spice (a twist on a spicy marg), Karpouzi Island (vodka, melon mix, mint and lime, with a jelly watermelon on the side) and Orchard Walk (butter gin, apple, lime, Ouzo and soda) to make you feel like you’re walking through the gardens of Greece. And, if you’re looking for one of the best Happy Hour deals in London, every weekday from 4pm – 7pm, HERA offers a selection of over 20 classic cocktails for just £8 each – perfect for enjoying the longer, warmer evenings.
