The schedule gives Waterloo a real late-night option, with hours running to 2 a.m. most nights. That matters for diners who want more than a final snack: the menu still has shareables, sandwiches, tacos and bigger plates.

Friday and Saturday hours make Jane Bond more useful after standard dinner time than many vegetarian restaurants. It is strongest when the plan is food, drinks and music rather than a quick early meal.

Late hours make Ethel's useful beyond standard dinner timing, with comfort food, drinks, and group-friendly ordering that can carry the night later than most casual restaurants.

Late kitchen hours make Huether useful after the first part of the night has already happened. Wings, burgers, wraps, and pub sides keep that late meal straightforward.

Late hours make Empress Of India more flexible than a typical dinner-only plan. It is a useful fallback for curries, biryani, breads, and shareable starters when diners are eating after the usual rush.
