A rowdy, unpretentious honky-tonk in Bermondsey serving serious slow-smoked meats in a rustic, industrial setting.
Ordering Strategy
Go with a group to tackle the large meat trays. Focus on the beef and mutton options over the pork. Skip the bread provided on the side and order the stuffed jalapeños instead.
What to order
USDA Beef Brisket
Regarded as the signature dish that 'sets the standard for smoked brisket in London,' it is described as moist, tender, and expertly rendered with a woody bark.
Beef Short Rib
An 'exceptionally beefy' cut that is 'sensually excellent' and technically accomplished, featuring a dark bark and edges of pink, iridescent flesh.
Mutton Ribs
A rare find that critics call the 'best of the bone-in offerings,' featuring a lovely spice crust and earthy, unctuous fat that is 'spot on.'
Chilli Fries
Described as 'hilarious to eat' and 'worth coming back for alone,' these chips are as wide as a finger and semi-hollowed like a canoe to carry a fibrous brown stew of chilli.
