Roasty toasty
The steaming jug of silky gravy. The beautifully browned joint
giving up its juicy slices. Potatoes begging you to crunch their
crispy golden shells. Greens so fresh you can almost taste
the vitamins. An awesome Sunday roast has to be the one
meal people look forward to the most. And our pubs do a
spanking one (our chefs get full-on 昀椀nicky when it comes to
crafting your Sunday spread).
Browse our Sunday menu in any pub, and you’ll 昀椀nd meat from
local farms and delicious seasonal vegetarian options. Your sides
list might feature such delights as goose-dripping roast potatoes,
maple-roasted carrots, buttered kale and cavolo nero,
salt-baked beets, and braised red cabbage. On top of that (or
next to) come the double egg Yorkshire puddings, which are
a showstopper. Total Yorkie yumness. Besides the roasts, you’ll
be spoiled for choice with a barrage of other mains, starters,
mega sharing plates, and died-and-gone-to-heaven desserts
(hint: the new sharing crumble is an epic Sunday lunch climax
that’ll hit all your happiness and nostalgia buttons).
While the food is the spotlit superstar of the show,
it’s the whole deal that makes the experience so
special. It’s gathering friends and family. It’s the
stories, gossip and giggles. It’s rosy cheeks, big grins,
and getting nicely full. It’s 昀氀aking out in a comfy chair
with a drink in hand and dogs curled up by the 昀椀re.
To be honest, you’d be hard-pushed to think of a
better way to wind down and wrap up your week,
especially as the temperature drops and the nights
start to draw in.
