Acme Fire Cult Acme Fire Cult (AFC) Is a live-fire restaurant from chef Andrew Clarke.. Located in the bustling heart of Dalston, AFC takes inspiration from a multitude of avenues; from Turkish Ocakbasi, the fermenting traditions of south-east Asia and Andrew’s many gastronomic journey’s through India. The flavours are complex, rich and a more refined take on traditional fire cooking. We are dedicated to having a large portion of the menu being made up of plant based dishes which have equal importance to their meaty counterparts. AFC has a burning passion for quality produce and sustainability. We source rare and native breed meats from around the UK, day boat caught fish from Scotland and Cornwall and the best quality fruits and vegetables from south east farms. The restaurant is a sister venture to 40FT Brewery, a micro-brewery, based onsite producing a rotating range of high quality craft brews. We work closely with the brew team, utilising their spent products in our menus, repurposing traditional waste products into integral ingredients and in doing so, providing closed-loop sustainable practices.
