About

Looking for delicious Middle Eastern food near Whitechapel? Amber is an all-day restaurant serving up a vibrant menu that reflects the Amber Road trade route between the Baltic Sea and the Mediterranean. Whether you’re planning a birthday meal, date night or business lunch, this East London spot serves bold flavours in a stylish and welcoming setting.

The interiors blend raw and natural elements. Think cool concrete walls offset by warm bamboo bench seating and rich wooden finishes. A central marble-topped bar adds a touch of elegance, surrounded by an abundance of greenery that softens the space. Diners can enjoy the buzz of the open kitchen, watching chefs prepare dishes that draw inspiration from across the Middle East.

For lunch and dinner, the Amber menu offers up a selection of snacks, dips, and breads along with small plates and larger plates. So guests might expect to see the likes of hummus with sultana salsa, challa bread made in-house, lentil kofte with pomegranate and sumac, prawns in sucuk baharat butter, and glazed lamb shoulder with burnt aubergine, yoghurt, chilli butter, and pita croutons. For desserts, anticipate temptations like pumpkin seed ice cream with fig leaf oil, a cloud cheesecake with tahini crumble, and mango baklava with whipped mascarpone and pistachio.

Breakfast at Amber is also very popular. The same goes for the brunch offering, thanks to the addition of bottomless dishes like Aleppo fried eggs, cod fritters with tartare sauce, and labneh with fermented chilli and crispy shallot onions. It's available every day, and for an additional price, you can also enjoy an hour and a half of bottomless bubbles.

As for the drinks menu, the team at Amber are a dab hand at mixing up a Mezcal Negroni, Gimlet, or Aperol Spritz. There's also a selection of signature cocktails, including a 'Butterfly' number with bluepea-infused Beefeater gin, with yuzu, raki, and lavender.
