The Butcher and Grill

46

Signal score

Useful signal, but still lighter than the standouts.

A meat-focused concept that promises an in-house butchery experience but delivers disappointing execution, with lackluster service and steaks that fail to justify the price.

Ordering Strategy

Avoid the steaks if you want a proper char; the lamb (Barnsley chop) appears to be the safer bet. Check the counter hours, as it may close early.

What to order

Safe first

Barnsley Chop

Described as a 'good piece of meat' and was the only protein noted as being properly cooked and served rare as requested.

Hungry

Steak from the butcher's counter

Applauded by fans as 'superbly cooked' and a 'real treat,' though it is noted as being an expensive indulgence.

Wildcard

Dry-Cured Bacon Starter

A 'nice assembly' featuring broad beans and pecorino cheese, highlighted by the 'admirable' thickness of the bacon.

What to skip

Skip
Duck RilletteDescribed as 'dismal' mush with no texture, compared to food that had been 'pre-chewed by gumming pensioners.'
Skip
Rib-eye SteakCriticized for being 'the grey of an English winter's sky' with no grill marks, looking as though it had been fried in a pan rather than grilled.

Good to know

The 'Butcher' aspect of the concept may be closed by the time you order dinner (counter closed at 8:45pm). The Chelsea location (The Butcher's Tap and Grill) is closing permanently in June 2025.
