"Roast rump of beef with roast potatoes, yorkshire pudding, and gravy “Oysters, pickled cockles, and potted shrimp were all on the menu in the spacious and woody dining room at the back of the St John’s Tavern in Archway, but it was impossible to ignore the Sunday roast at the top of the blackboard. It didn’t disappoint. The beef was perfectly, melt-in-your mouth pink, just to my liking, the potatoes massive, crusty, and fluffy inside, and the yorkshire - seen here obscuring both potatoes - more than capable of holding the two (yes, two!) boats of gravy I emptied in it. The whole thing was as close to the platonic ideal of a roast I think I’ve ever managed to find in this part of town. Just as good were the croquetas to start, the excellent 2018 UBE Miraflores me and my pals were lucky to get the last bottle of, and the massive banoffee pie which I will definitely be going back for another go at.” - OJF" - team infatuation
