'A building housing a pop-up restaurant in east London has been partially destroyed by fire, but "fortunately no hipsters were injured", London Fire Brigade (LFB) has said.
More than 30 firefighters helped to tackle the blaze on Great Eastern Street in Shoreditch from 03:45 BST.
LFB has since apologised after its joke about the fire was met with a mixed response on social media.
It said: "Sorry if we caused any offence by using the term hipsters."
LFB added: "Hope #Shoreditch businesses are back on their feet soon."
