A beloved East London fishmonger turning its premium catch into upscale street food like lobster rolls and truffle crisp tartare at a buzzing market shack.
Ordering Strategy
Visit the Bar Flounder shack in Netil Market for the cooked street food menu (Thurs-Sun), or the main shop on Broadway Market for fresh shucked oysters.
What to order
Lobster Roll
Described as a 'classic' and a 'signature' item made with 'fresh Scottish Native Lobster arriving daily', it is the cornerstone of their seafood menu.
Lobster 'BF' Muffin
A 'rich' and substantial brunch-style option served with a fried egg and cheese, noted as an 'attention-grabbing' photograph for the Bar Flounder launch.
Salmon Tartare with Torres’s Truffle Crisps
A unique menu highlight that pairs fresh salmon with premium truffle-flavored crisps for a playful 'high-low' texture combination.
Carabinero Croquettes
Highlighted by the owner as a 'signature' street food item that has been 'received so well' alongside their more famous lobster rolls.
Turbot Tenders and Buffalo Hot Sauce
An inventive take on fried fish that elevates the premium flatfish into a street-food format served with spicy buffalo sauce.
