Date Night — Best British in Central London

Start with

Black Pudding

Described as 'seriously memorable,' this loose-grained boudin noir is likened to 'mulch and loam and fudge and blood in the most delicious way,' with reviewers suggesting they could eat it with a spoon like Nutella.

Start with

Cheese & Onion Croquettes

Universally praised as some of the 'best' critics have ever had, these golden, gooey bites of Montgomery’s Cheddar are described as 'sharp, flavourful and oh-so addictive.'

Start with

Smoked Eel Sandwich

Consistently cited by critics as a 'must' and a signature of the house, this dish is the cornerstone of Jeremy Lee's 'hearty, British, seasonal cuisine.'

Start with

Dressed Crab

The crustaceans are cooked and dismembered fresh every day on the premises; critics describe the result as 'irreducibly crabby' and needing nothing more than a squeeze of lemon and buttered brown bread.

Start with

Hand-Raised Pork Pie

Jay Rayner describes this as a 'bold expression of pig' and a 'noble' example of the craft, served hot with a rich gravy made from calves' feet and reduction.

Start with

Egg Mayonnaise with Anchovy

Explicitly called a 'mainstay' on the menu, these are praised for their 'sunset yolks' and generous dollops of silky homemade mayo.

Start with

Cod and Chips

Described as the 'best fish and chips in Zone 1 by some distance,' featuring a 'light, delicate batter' and 'superbly moist' fish.

Start with

Mince and Potatoes

Commonly cited as the restaurant's signature dish, it is a comforting British classic that embodies the 'thoroughly soothing experience' noted by critics.

Start with

Terrine with Gribiche

A menu staple that defines their robust, rustic style; critics praise the kitchen's 'full-bore gutsiness' and 'rudely rustic' approach to traditional fare.

Start with

Macaroni Cheese

A signature twist on comfort food that uses 'fat paccheri pasta' and 'fried cauliflower' for crunch; it is so well-regarded that reviewers who miss out on it express genuine regret.

Start with

Roast Bone Marrow and Parsley Salad

The legendary signature dish that defines the restaurant; served with sourdough toast and sea salt, it is a non-negotiable order.

Start with

All In

Regarded as the 'main purpose of the place' and the 'best deal for sharing,' this signature stack of beef, pork, and lamb is served over charred flatbread that soaks up all the juices.

Start with

Roast Bone Marrow and Parsley Salad

A legendary dish that has been on the menu for 26 years; the deeply fatty marrow is perfectly balanced by the crisp acidity of the parsley, caper, and shallot salad.

Start with

Chicken Supreme

A generous piece of tender meat roasted in lemon and thyme, served as part of a 'feast for the eyes' that includes a Yorkshire pudding and fluffy roast potatoes.
