Beard to Tail- Hoxton, London

77 Curtain Road, EC2A 3BS

Whiskey and steak lovers...this one's for you. While the focus of the restaurant is high quality, locally sourced meats and a variety of rare whiskies and ryes, there is something for everyone on the menu.

The superior starter choice was a delicious dish of Devonshire crab with avocado, lime, cannellini beans, chilli flakes and melba toast.  Deep fried baby squid with almonds and crispy curry leaves followed closely after. With rich glasses of red, we enjoyed succulent braised pig’s cheeks with cloves & honey and the butcher’s cut steak with celeriac & horseradish slaw. Giant sweet potato chips on the side were a good choice too. The dessert menu looks divine- treat yourself to a banana tart with peanut butter ice cream,  a baked lemon tart with vanilla mascarpone or go all out and order the sharing sundae- marshmallow, ice cream, Oreo cookies, chocolate brownies & Jack Daniel’s syrup- served in a whisky bottle.

 A design incorporating wooden tables, mosaic flooring, light grey tiles, exposed pipes and a large focal chandelier gives the interior a casual but stylish feel.
