Summary
“A real carnivore's delight” – this small brick-walled steakhouse on the Clapham/Brixton borders is a local favourite, including for Sunday roast. “The small menu is always special. plus an extra mention for the amazing staff!”.
Summary
“Stonking steaks are the draw” at this small four-year-old, “on a rather bleak stretch of ‘Claxton’ (CLApham/BriXTON) highway”. “The room is pretty basic” (and “intimate to the point of cramped”) but fans like its “warm and slightly rustic” charm as enlivened by “the friendliest staff”. “Sunday roasts are top notch” too – “you get complimentary mini Yorkshires and gravy to start; and the veg is superb”.

“Stonking steaks are the draw” at this small three-year-old, “on a rather bleak stretch of ‘Claxton’ (CLApham/BriXTON) highway”. “The room is pretty basic” (and “intimate to the point of cramped”) but fans like its “warm and slightly rustic” charm as enlivened by “the friendliest staff”. “Sunday roasts are top notch” too – “you get complimentary mini Yorkshires and gravy to start; and the veg is superb”.
Summary
“Fantastic meat” – led by “truly excellent steaks” (ethically sourced from the Lake District) – has made this tiny, “noisy” two-year-old steakhouse on the Clapham-Brixton border one of the hottest dining tickets in South London. “The Sunday lunches are legendary: homemade bread with butter, then a board of mini Yorkshire puds with unctuous dipping gravy. And that’s even before the main course, where beef is best – superlatively rare”. All is “served with real charm and enthusiasm” by “attentive staff who remember you when you return”.
