Roast- Borough Market, London

The Floral Hall, Stoney Street, SE1 1TL

Found the heart of Borough Market, Roast is perfect for a delicious weekend lunch in a polished and friendly setting. Two floors up and with large glass windows, this restaurant is the perfect vantage point to see the adjacent railway lines, beautiful surrounding architecture and the hustle and bustle of the market below. The family friendly nature and regular live piano make it a very relaxed and pleasant place to be.

The menu focuses on high quality, seasonal British produce. On Saturday, choose from one of the many appetising a la carte mains including beer battered whiting with chips and mushy pees, classic Shepherd's pie, tandoori-spiced partridge, the 8oz Borough burger or pan-fried fillet of Cornish lemon sole.

The Sunday set menu is centered around a hearty roast. Accompanied with beef-dripping roasties and seasonal vegetables, our roast chicken and slow roasted lamb choices came in mammoth portions that  left us full and happy customers very much in need of a nap. Our tasty desserts included Bramley apple and blackberry crumble with custard, lemon posset with kentish raspberry jelly and an indulgent chocolate and vanilla ice cream sundae.
