About My Neighbours The Dumplings

My Neighbours the Dumplings is more than just an independent Chinese Dumpling House—we're the perfect spot for celebrations of all kinds.

Our handmade dumplings are crafted fresh daily by our expert team just around the corner. At our Clapton site, we offer three distinct spaces, each with its own character and charm, from our speakeasy- esque basement bar to our ‘secret’ Garden.

Our menu is Cantonese inspired with Dim Sum at it’s heart but with playful takes on traditional dishes and influences from across East and South- East Asia.

Treat your guests to an unforgettable experience with our curated drinks menu. We offer a handpicked selection of organic wines from boutique European producers, premium sake from family-run Japanese breweries via Tengu Sake, and a rotating list of creative cocktails. Plus, we have a full range of mocktails, Chinese teas, and alcohol-free options to suit every palate.

Want to do something unique for your event? - We offer Dumpling rolling workshops with our expert team & Sake pairings! - Just get in touch.

We are also available for brand events & activations, filming, supper clubs and dry hire.
