Conceived in 2015 in London, Cocina aims to explore food beyond the mainstream. A puristic plant based practice allows freedom to explore the unknown and connect with Hernan and Renata's Latin American roots.
Set in a secret dining room combining kitchen, creative studio and wines, all devoted for time to be preciously savoured.

"I could not imagine a more lovely evening. Renata and Hernan are consummate hosts who made the night feel like an effortless dinner party among friends. As for the food, I've never eaten vegan cuisine before but found the courses and accompanying wine pairings to be delicious. Clearly a lot of heart and passion went into this evening, and it was evident in every detail of the meal. I can't recommend highly enough."

"Fantastic night. Hosts were so warm and welcoming and took the time to explain the story behind the dishes they created. So much precision and love went into each dish and you could really taste the subtlety of flavours and the balance of textures. Delicious and also totally different to what I've had before, which is an extra impressive feat! Loved it"

"Renata and Hernan were wonderful hosts, the food was creative, tasty, meaningful, and beautifully presented. No one missed meat from the vegan meal. Their home is lovely and stylish, cosy and quiet. We lucked out and had fantastic conversation, and a surprising mix of cultures, which made it even more interesting. Icing on the cake was sharing the mate (special tea) afterwards. Fabulous first GC experience, would highly recommend for foodies or if you are keen to meet some new people."

"Great food and great atmosphere. Lots of love and creativity to make vegan a super tasty option. Definitely for people who like to experiment and try new things. Our second time there and would go again in the near future. Simply unbeatable combination. Thanks again Hernan and Renata!“
Andrea
"Hernan and Renata are simply wonderful people who, coincidentally, cook amazing food, and it has been an honour to be invited into their home and share this dining experience with them. I initially booked this dinner in the hopes of avoiding yet another chain restaurant experience, but the evening really went beyond our expectations. The menu has been thoughtfully designed - even some of the sourcing and prep takes place well in advance of the dinner. The food was utterly incredible, and very beautifully presented. The evening itself was really quite magical; it felt like we were dining with friends - old and new. Thank you again H&R. It's been a pleasure to share wine (and mate!) with you both.”

"The tastiest and most creative vegan dinner I have ever had. Amazing night, lovely hosts and great atmosphere. The menu was inspired by Latin America cuisine and you could feel it through every detail of the night, from the decoration of the room and the music to special touches on the menu and drinks, like the "Caipirinha" for example, which was kept cool with the use of yummy "coconut water ice cubes"!! So much care! And the food was absolutely delicious!! As a native brazilian I have to confess I was intrigued by how the vegan version of some of our most typical dishes would taste like. Couldn't have had a better surprise. All those amazing flavours and textures were there through a very smart choice of ingredients but without the heaviness of our traditional cuisine. Couldn't believe the "Feijoada"! So tasty and yet so light!! Absolutely love it, will definitely go back!!"

"Love and care in every detail. Very tasteful and thoughtful mix of ingredients that made me rediscover vegan food. Enjoyed the food, the music and the overall chill out atmosphere. Would definitely recommend and go again to try new amazing vegan options."
Andrea
"Had the most amazing vegan dinner last night at Cocina Shoreditch. Everything was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious, never felt like I was compromising taste for a vegan dish, quite the opposite! Every course had a unique and special touch prepared not only with the best ingredients but also with the love that Renata and Hernan clearly put on everything they cook. Special mention to the "coxinha" and "feijonada". Can't believe they achieved those delicious flavours with no meat! Best vegan food I tried in London so far. Definitely recommend it."
Kathrine
"We had such a wonderful evening with passionate hosts, exquisite food, great people sharing life stories...The whole ambience was just perfect. We loved every dish of it. This is absolutely the best vegan menu I've ever had!"
Adeline
"This was the best supper club that I have ever been. The space is beautiful, hosts are so kind and fun and the food is so GREAT! Food that has been cooked with so much thoughts and love, the result is fantastic! And feeling so healthy even after dessert. I would love to have everything all again! Thank you for the wonderful experience :)"

"There was only one thing better than the incredibly delicious and original food: Hernan and Renata, the beautiful hosts. These pair are a young cool couple in love and enjoying life and it shows in everything they do, the food, the table setting, the music, the complete atmosphere. Cocina shoreditch is a fun, cool and delicious night...looking forward to the next."
