Two celebrated London restaurants team up for a one-night celebration of fifteen years combined. SMOKESTAK and manteca take over Protein Studios in Shoreditch to deliver a full-scale party experience blending music, food, and drink.
Expect live DJ sets, a dancefloor with disco ball, and a dive bar atmosphere complete with an ice shot bar. The food and drink offering spans both restaurants' signatures: SMOKESTAK brings its street food roots—12-hour brisket buns, charred pork belly ribs, pulled pork buns, and coal-roasted aubergine—while manteca serves mortadella hotdogs with various toppings, loaded flatbreaks, and Italian sandwiches from its wood-fired oven. The bar features green chilli and frozen margaritas, manteca house negronis, burnt peach old fashioneds, amaro spritz, and a full wine and spirits selection.
Additional attractions include a photobooth, happy endings soft serve, sweet and salty popcorn, and a free-standing oyster shucker. Your ticket includes a welcome cocktail, with all food and drinks available for purchase throughout the night. All proceeds go to Philoxenia, their in-house charity.
