The Lacy Nook sits tucked inside Wood Street Studios on Barrett Road, a Balkan-inspired hideaway that locals compare to being on holiday without leaving E17. Founders Elena Armin and Evros Ellinas have created something genuinely different here — part beach shack, part pergola, where the menu draws on Cypriot, Serbian, and wider Mediterranean traditions. Families find plenty to work with: highchairs, baby changing, buggy-friendly access, and a kids menu alongside the main sharing plates. The charred broccoli, baked feta, and pork gyros turn up repeatedly in reviews, as does the baklava cheesecake. "Set up for kids, with a kids menu, high chairs, baby change, space/ramp for prams," notes one regular who brings friends to share most of the menu. Starters run £3–9, mains around £14–15. The covered indoor-outdoor seating creates a holiday vibe, and reviewers note the attentive service keeps them coming back for brunch and evening plates alike.
