Llama Inn

A couple of sledgehammer sips of Llama Inn’s pisco sour is all you need to squint and think that this rooftop in Shoreditch isn’t far removed from Williamsburg. The Peruvian restaurant comes via New York and given its location on top of The Hoxton hotel, the crowd is unsurprisingly vibe-centric. Preened sorts, possible influencers, and digital prophets are going to love the half-moon booths and foliage-happy room, and so too are restaurant-lovers without a TikTok account. The menu’s glossary, which explains the likes of furikake, aji rocoto, huacatay, and other ingredients, goes some way to show the seriousness of the food. One bite of the saikyo miso-topped cabbage anticucho will let you know that textures and flavours are taken as seriously as aesthetics here. We’ll certainly be popping in for a post-work pork shoulder slider.
