Very enjoyable Sunday lunch. The place was full when we arrived without a booking. A very nice chap who turned out to be the boss found us a table and we had a great time. He had an air of someone who was slightly bored with the plethora of hipsters that populate almost every establishment these days - so we felt completely welcome and comfortable! Oysters fresh and clean. Wine - De Vedilhan - one of my favourites! Fish broth was exquisite. Beef was one of the finest Sunday roasts I've eaten. Very nice Pinot Noir to accompany. Potatoes were overcooked and dry inside. Oh dear... Can't have everything!! Have been before and will go again. With friends next time for the larger cuts of beef and whole chickens - too much for just the two of us!
Hired the upstairs room for a work lunch party and everyone agreed the food was outstanding. Loved the idea of choosing two starters and two mains and everything served family style on platters repeating down the table: delicious duck salad, pretty nice mussels, good beef and amazing venison. I went back for dinner with my friend later at Christmas and though not as amazing food, probably in holiday rush, the atmosphere downstairs is really lovely. Black pudding and chorizo salad was uninspiring as was the rabbit though. Pickled mackerel dish to start for my companion was the main star! Great place for friends, informal date, parents etc.
Fantastic Easter Lunch. My husband and two boys went to the Drapers Arms this afternoon for an Easter sunday roast. We loved it! It has to be one of the best roasts in London!
