Choose from HERA signatures including Helen of Spice (a twist on a Spicy Margarita) and Dates in Crete (a twist on an Old Fashioned) or whisk yourself away to warmer climes with a refreshing Nymph Minthe or Karpuzi Island. It is no secret that Greek wine is now world class and Hera’s wine list doesn’t disappoint. From Santorini’s Assyrtiko to the rich Cabernet Sauvignon, of Kokotos, at HERA a true taste of Greece goes beyond what is on your plate.

A 200 seater restaurant, HERA is a lateral and welcoming space where a colour palette of warm aubergine, marble, copper and gold creates an elegant and inviting interior. Window lined walls ensure plenty of natural light in the day and the evening shimmer of surrounding outdoor lights by night.

Located in the heart of Stratford Cross, HERA is a part of a new and exciting development which is fast becoming a new hub of East London. A stone’s throw from the ABBA Arena, and directly opposite the much anticipated V&A Museum which will open in Spring 2026, there are multiple reasons to visit. Be it a cocktail pre ABBA, lunch post a cultural fix or just an opportunity to escape London for the warmth of the Mediterranean –  HERA has you covered.
