Harden's survey result
Summary
A “great place for meats grilled over coals (hence the name)”, in the famous Lanes, that was launched two years ago by friends Isaac and ‘BBQ king’ Dave. While the meats are the main event, “everything is delicious” (there are also small plates on the menu) and it makes a “great place for a semi-casual business lunch or dinner – the open kitchen takes the pressure off the conversation”. Top Tip – “they have launched meat-sharing platters on Sundays (it actually ended up being too much… but the meat was so brilliantly done we just kept eating it!”).
Summary
“Lovely food, cooked over – you guessed it! – embers” is the proposition at this year-old “smokehouse on the Lanes”, with a “lovely atmosphere” created by a brigade led by “two well-known chefs with fine-dining backgrounds” – Isaac Bartlett-Copeland, formerly of restaurant Isaac@, and ‘BBQ king’ Dave Marrow. Be warned, though – the “creative small plates” are “truly excellent” but “it’s quite smoky in there and the food isn’t for the faint-hearted”.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
