Great vibe for friends getting together, high ceiling, dim lit lighting and
a cozy dining atmosphere.

Pigtails: 10/10 for creative ingredient and cooking method. Crunchy to the bones.
Ox Cheeks: 6/10 taste somewhat too salty and the sauce doubled the intensity instead of balancing.
Brisket bun: 9/10 Comforting and balancing flavours.
Salt baked beetroot, goat cheese, hazelnuts: 8/10 with the nuts as the star of the dish
Beef brisket, mustard barbecue: 8/10 better served in the Brisket buns
Thick-cut pork ribs, pickled cucumber: 8/10 Harmonised but will be perfect if the meat fell off the bone effortlessly...
Jacket potato, smoked rarebit: 9/10 lovely cheese, crunchy potato skin and outer layer, soft and creamy at the centre.
Sticky toffee pudding, clotted ice cream: 10/10 same awesomeness as in Hawksmoor but the clotted cream ice cream won it here.

My come-back order will be Pigtails, Brisket bun x2, Beef ribs, Jacket potato and Sticky toffee pudding
