Definite highlight for the Vauxhall area. While a bit on the expensive side, the food and the ambiance is amazing. The service is friendly. They’re not set up for warm weather but still a pleasant visit. The corpse reviver is amazing and a worthy cocktail for anyone adventurous enough to try it.
Found this just around the corner from a friend’s house, went there for breakfast. Empty at that time on a Saturday, cozy place, quiet, the yogurt was and granola + cappuccino were just what I was looking for, almost perfect. Good find.
Really great, unexpected find in the middle of a fairly horrible crossing. A Victorian standalone building surrounded by ugly modern and soulless blocks this is a real gem. Cost, warming on a rainy evening, the interior is shabby/ vintage chic with Lassco furniture for sale. Menu is changing according to season with plenty of variety to cater for food intolerances and tastes. Friendly service and good wine list. We will definitely be back. pastabites.co.uk
Reserved this place for an early pre-theatre dinner at 6pm (earliest possible booking). We were 5-10 minutes early, so staff was still having there meeting. Anyhow, we waited at pub and had drinks. Staff was polite and hospitable. As we were in hurry, we just had mains from the very exotic sounding menu. We went for gurnard and lamb dishes with potatoes side. All mains were lukewarm at the best when served, so not sure what went wrong there. As had a show to catch, we didn’t creat fuss. In brief, nice place with professional and helpful staff but food was not upto the mark as per expectations.
For the longest time, I’ve been meaning to come to Brunswick House. Located in the most unlikely of places, literally on the corner of the Vauxhall roundabout, it stands alone as a beautiful reminder of days gone by whilst modern developments shoot up all around it. That it’s attached to renown antique dealers Lassco only adds to its charm as the decor of the dining room and bar also acts as a display case for their classic furnishings. On this day, we arrived for Sunday lunch having heard nothing but good things about the sharing roasts here. What came did not disappoint. The special of the day – a plate of lamb shoulder with roasted pink fir potatoes, purple sprouting broccoli and braised veges – was as stunning to the palate as it was to the eye. The lamb had been slow roasted to perfection, retaining all its magnificent juices which you couldn’t help but mop up with crusty bread as to waste it would be blasphemy. In addition to this, priced at 28.40 for a meal that could feed 4, it represented a real bargain though we had it between three. Other dishes such as the devilled duck hearts also proved to be winners and well worth your time even if you aren’t particularly adventurous. So all in all, a really enjoyable meal all round and would certainly get my recommendation. Just a note that the lamb was only 1 of 3 specials on the day which do rotate so always be on the lookout. Otherwise the a la carte menu also looks appetising though I can’t attest to it! Also follow me on Twitter @annixontong and @wetrykai and on Instagram @annixontong. wetrykai.wordpress.com
http://gu.com/p/4gbzq?CMP=Share_iOSApp_OtherJay Rayner :And yet for all that nose-to-tail St John heritage, a lunchtime menu 16 for two courses, 19 for three displays an ambivalence towards things with a pulse. There is meat, but it is not front and centre. A dish of pumpkin, both in thinly sliced curls and sweet roasted hunks, comes with slices of crisp black radish and pear. There is a thick smear of nutty brown butter across the bottom of the plate, though each ingredient on top of it has been sharply dressed, too, and then the whole sprinkled with toasted pumpkin seeds. Another dish of lightly grilled and funky squid makes a point of the thrilling bitterness in slices of blood orange and the deep-green leaf of puntarelle, with texture added by a rye crumb. Neither of these dishes is obvious; like those dangling chandeliers, they make sense because someone with good taste has been involved in putting them there.A thick slab of pork terrine, served with a prune and grain mustard paste and a little pickled red cabbage, is one of those examples of the craft which makes you feel the pig has been taken seriously. In a main course there are slices of roasted lamb loin, pink inside, the fat amber and crisp, but they are not at the centre of the plate. It is decorated first with a bright chilli relish and then, across that, a yogurt dressing, as if that other Jackson Mr Pollock has visited the kitchen. Then come heaps of purple sprouting broccoli and the meat, and the soft purr of happy people. Cylinders of sweet-salty confited salsify come with sticky roasted Jerusalem artichokes split open so you can see their butter-soft inwards, leaves of black cabbage, and across that curling savoury tuiles with the delicacy of antimacassars, made of toasted and salty Ogleshield cheese.
