Smiths of Smithfield

[BUTTERBALL]

Any good? Poyet and Taricco spotted there yesterday "looking gloomy" according to The Mail. Is that John Torode's place?

 

[Wozza]

Does a great breakfast.

 

[CheeseRolls]

Does a great breakfast.

Yes yes, but do they serve humble pie and how does it rate alongside piglets ?

 

[Clive Walker's slaphead]

Yes it's Torode's place

 

[Superphil]

What, no Charlie with them?

 

[Krusty]

What, no Charlie with them?

He was probably in the loo.

What, no Charlie with them?

They don't do chicken nuggets

 

[Man of Harveys]

I hope they have the pork belly in there: tasty but highly heart-attack inducing. Or is that uncalled for...

Does a breakfast with a great reputation. Have tried it twice - both times at the weekend moind you - and it was merely OK. Place was packed, service was slap dash, food was patchy. Many places doing it better these days (eg Roast at Borough Market and probably half a dozen places in Brighton).

 

[Sussex on Leith]

I'd go to St John's round the corner for some roast bone marrow and parsley, myself. But then I wouldn't walk out of a brilliant football club in a tammy huff either.

In fairness, I last went 7+ years ago...

Excellent choice - even the cheap fare, like the fish finger sandwich or pulled pork sandwich are outstanding

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Ernest BETTER be PREparing a THREad!!!

Oh no...he was leaving another message...?

If you want pulled pork it's all about Pitt Cue Co these days.

 

[Uncle Buck]

The restaurant on the top floor is very nice, as long as you are not paying.

 

[Albion Dan]

They were looking gloomy because they wanted to go raving in Fabric next door but didnt realise it doesnt open on a Thursday.

 

[Lower West Stander]

Fox and Anchor just round the corner is better

 

[Since1982]

Was there last Saturday. 2nd floor dining room is always reliable and a good atmosphere. Last weekend seems like a lifetime ago.

Very good steak there. Probably appealed to our South American ex-chums.
