Harden's survey result
Summary
Joe Sharratt and Margaux Aubry’s informal French-inspired Brixton venue is a true leader of South London gastronomy, serving small sharing plates of “the best grub” and “most exciting wines” south of the river. “Margaux is a treasure – a Lyon-hearted wonder” who provides guests with expert guidance through the menu and excellent wine list. Foodie composer/impresario Andrew Lloyd Webber was such a fan that he invited the team to launch a spin-off at his ‘The Other Place Theatre’ in Victoria.
Summary
“A Brixton gem” – Joe Sharratt and Margaux Aubry’s French-inspired small-plates venue “is a wonder”, and wins plaudits across the board for “food, wine, service and vibe that are just unbeatable!” “What I love is that the menu doesn’t constantly change – they’re creating modern classics that will endure, especially the pork belly and the crab salad”. “Margaux is a miracle of grace, enthusiasm and good taste” – “she keeps some of the most interesting drinks in town and she’s got the gift of knowing how to translate one’s vague ideas into actual glasses of loveliness and surprise”. “Book well ahead as it is always crammed.” (As at September 2021, the offshoot at Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Other Palace theatre in Victoria remains closed due to the pandemic.)
Summary
Joe and Margaux Sharratt’s “distressed-chic Brixton/Brockwell Park fixture” continues to win “top marks” for its French-inspired “small-plates at reasonable prices” (“if I lived next door I’d get rid of my kitchen!”). The “friendly, chatty and informal staff” and “South London style” also go down well, although the occasional reporter is “not so sure about the natural wines”. The same team has opened a sister venue at Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Other Palace theatre in Victoria (see also).

Naughty Piglets Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Such a lovely restaurant, small and perfectly formed. Lovely staff. "
"Very loud music. Great cod plate, crab and satay and delicious caramel sauce with choc mousse. Girolles were ok and the 6 scallops were really 3, cut in half."
"Unassuming space with a laid back vibe that belies a serious approach to food and wine. The decor is nothing to speak of and the menu is limited but what they do is well balanced and high quality. The plates are a touch on the small side for the prices charged but a good time is guaranteed. The service is friendly and knowledgeable and you get the impression that working here is fun."
