Escape to an urban oasis of food, drinks and fun at London’s latest street food market, Lalaland. 

In the heart of Shoreditch, the complex has four bars, a roof terrace and food court, complete with palm trees, disco balls and a waterfall.

The glitzy guestlist for the VIP Launch Party included presenter Laura Whitemore, ex-Love Islander Georgia Harrison and celebrity chef Gizzi Erskine.

“The pizza at the keep on eating pizza place was amazing - I love Italian food so this was right up my street!" - shared singer John Galea tucking into a slice from Freewheelin Pizza.

With 15 food vendors to choose from, you can enjoy cuisines from across the globe such as Trinidadian food from Saga Boy, burgers from TUCKA and The Duck Shed, and Italian dishes from The Little Pasta Company and Etna Coffee.

"The Lalaland launch party event was unreal, from the music and entertainment to the staff and food stalls. Since I’m vegan I loved that there were vegan and vegetarian options - I tried the vegan wingz from Wangz and the tofu bao bun from Gua Bao, both were delicious!" - Sophia Aurora

Tommy’s Margaritas and Eastern Standard cucumber & vodka cocktails were shaken at the bar while Sue Veneers Club shook up the stage.

"The opening of Lalaland was worth the wait! Summer vibes, delicious food, and who can forget the flowing waterfall?I loved Etna Coffee’s arancini balls, which come in a variety of flavours, from ham and cheese, ragu, to spinach!" - Michael J Hardwick

Our favourite dishes included Pepperoni Pizza from Freewheelin Pizza, the Tofu Bao from Gua Bao and the Salmon Nigiri from Bel Air Sushi.

Love Island star Eyal Booker, TV presenter Becca Dudley, and actor Jeremy Irvine were also at the party.
