The House of Sunny and Pizza Unlock collaboration is turning heads in Hackney, merging cutting-edge fashion with mouthwatering cuisine. Until December 15, the iconic British brand takes over East London’s Unlock, offering a unique menu featuring an anchovy pizza and a vegan crispy cauliflower pizza taco alongside a capsule collection of limited-edition merchandise.
Sunny Williams, founder and creative director of House of Sunny, emphasizes the partnership’s local roots: “Hackney is where it all began for us, and collaborating with Unlock felt like the perfect way to bring our vision of fun, art, and self-expression to life.”
Fans can snag exclusive black T-shirts with Unlock’s logo or retro-inspired zip-up hoodies while indulging in authentic Neapolitan flavors. The decor reflects House of Sunny’s signature psychedelic, pastel-infused aesthetic, making the restaurant as much a feast for the eyes as the palate.
