“A little truck in the centre of the city serving nothing but duck and chips”: parked up permanently at Spitalfields Market, it’s “the Nando’s of duck!”“delicious and very affordable”, providing “generous portions of very good duck, plus excellent duck-fat-fried fries and slaw”. “If I worked locally, I wouldn’t be able to fit into my suit after coming here every day!”.

“Mouthwateringly delicious duck”“not just wraps”, but other dishes such as confit duck, pulled duck or duck steaks in a brioche bun – win a massive thumbs-up for this “unusual, quirky and quite unique” street-food star, permanently parked up by Spitalfields Market. “Best chips I’ve eaten in a very long time… and the duck is pretty good too!”

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
