    I’m not Beitish so my roast culture is limited for sure, but being Italian I might have a taste for “good taste” 😉

    I recently had roast at The Wheatsheaf in Tooting Bec, and I consider it being reaaaally good!
    FYI I also tried BlackLock in Shoreditch, so I definitely have a good comparison to say so 🙂

      Ahhh but being Italian you can take pride over porchetta slowly taking over 😉

      On the subject of The Wheatsheaf, someone else also recommended it to me – it is on my to-do list. Thanks for also suggesting it 🙂

    Please can you redo Hawksmoor Spitalfields. Maybe this time after acclimatising to London for a decade you wont complain about ‘expensive’ £30 bottles of wine or the expectation you pay a 12.5% tip? 😛

      Ha, yeah moaning about service charge is soooo 2017! All about the moaning about extra gravy charges 😉

      I’m actually going to review the new Hawksmoor in St Pancras at some point…I cannot resist visiting that gorgeous room! https://thehawksmoor.com/locations/st-pancras/

    Is the Priory Tavern on your to do list? It is in Kilburn.

    This is my favourite website on the internet.

    • By Lord Gravy on November 6th, 2025 at 4:33 PM:

      Much appreciated! It’s my favourite website too 😉

    Please review Ekstedt At The Yard! Dying to know what you think

    • By Lord Gravy on October 21st, 2025 at 7:45 AM:

      Well I’m curious enough to add it to my to-do list. Have you been?

      I note one of the comments on Google reviews says “You will have to search hard for a worse Sunday roast than what you get served at Eksted.”!!

    I love this website

    You don’t get out to the South east very much it seems. Nothing in Greenwich, Blackheath, Lewisham, Lee, Bromley or most of the surrounding area. Any plans to start covering it?

    • By Lord Gravy on October 5th, 2021 at 6:31 PM:

      It’s a good point. But another good point is that I live in Harrow so getting to places like Lewisham, Bromley, etc takes 1.5 hours each way – if the Met line is working! It can be painful enough travelling to central London!

      Hangovers, masks, it being more difficult to persuade accomplices to travel further – there are lots of reasons that put me off, but I will try to make the effort again at some point…soonish…very ish!

      If there is one place I should review, where would you say?

    @Linda
    ‘The Claddagh Ring’, Irish boozer I presume? Please tell me it’s not green with shamrocks ☘ everywhere!

    I must say, ‘Dartmouth Castle’ in Hammersmith, has been by far the best roast I have even had and that was 8 years ago. I’ve been to so many during that time and nothing has even come close.
    Everything from the meat, gravy, the potatoes, down to the greens. Usually there’s always one thing that they will bugger up but, there was not one thing to complain about. Saying that, that was 8 years ago and perhaps the chefs and owners have changed. Need to return there to see if it’s still as good as the one I had 8 years ago.

    • By Lord Gravy on June 30th, 2021 at 2:33 PM:

      Never heard of it before! Well do let me know if it is as good as 8 years ago…my to-do list is a tad overwhelming at the moment and government seems to keep closing the pubs 🙁

  • By Linda on May 30th, 2021 at 9:41 AM:

    The best roast I’ve tasted was in The Claddagh Ring in Hendon. Absolutely unbeatable home cooked food and the best service ever.
    Consistently amazing on every visit. So good it’s spoiled the ‘sunday roast’ experience for us. Never beaten, fabulous food.

    • By Lord Gravy on June 2nd, 2021 at 7:57 PM:

      It feels curveball enough to interest me! I actually tried to order from them via Deliveroo in lockdown 1 but they kept cancelling my order.

    The Crown & Goose in Camden used to do the best roasts on the planet. Their gravy was red wine, red onion with strips of red onion in the gravy.
    Is there a pub anywhere in London that makes this divine gravy recipe?

    You must try the roast at the North London tavern. In Kilburn It’s amazing !!!!
