Regular Supper
We've been coming every Friday for three years. The short rib hasn't changed and it never needs to. The new wine list is excellent — they clearly know what they're doing in that kitchen.

Snug Hire
Booked the snug for my 40th. Eighteen of us, a set menu of the best food I've eaten in London, and staff who remembered everyone's name by the second course. Exceptional.

Sunday Roast
The Sunday roast is the best in Southwark. Full stop. The Yorkshire puddings are genuinely enormous. My kids ask to come here specifically — that says everything.

Group Booking
Our office Christmas party. Twenty-two people. The food came out hot, the drinks kept coming, and nobody wanted to leave. We've already rebooked for summer.
