Looking for a Sunday dinner that’s a cut above the “roast”? 😍
If you want to impress your pals with a fancy new Sunday roast spot, @claptoncountryclub (yeah that’s right, fancy title too) should be top of your list! ♥️
I went here with friends recently and we absolutely loved it 😍 Excuse the photos as I wasn’t working so didn’t have my equipment with me.
I was seriously impressed by their vegan option – easily one of the best around 🤤 Not only that, but they have a live jazz and blues band 🎺 and the rustic decor is beautiful too – there are fairy lights hung across the ceiling and a cute little mezzanine where we sat 🥰 This would make a perfect wedding venue 👀👰🏼
They have three vegan roast options to choose from but here’s what I ate:
🌱Wellington nut roast – A nut roast encased in golden pastry. Served with heritage carrots, parsnips, roasted potatoes, creamed leeks (oat cream), seasonal greens & onion gravy
💰£18 – It is v expensive but the food is good and you’re paying for the experience too
💭Food was delicious. I love the combo of nut roast and pastry! It was chunky, substantial and full of flavour. The veg was all cooked really well too. We asked for a couple more potatoes and they brought us out a whole bowl free of charge so they’re generous with their ‘tatas! Really enjoyed the gravy too 🤤 A very good roast.
🤷🏼♀️Order again? Yes
🌱Dark chocolate sorbet
💰£7
💭Yes, I did roll my eyes when I saw this was the vegan dessert option but actually it was very good! Still, would like something more exciting – a crumble or sticky toffee pudding like my friends had would be great!
🤷🏼♀️Order again? Yes
We drank a little more than we normally would on a Sunday. Scroll for a little tipsy spin of my plate 🙈 But hey, that’s what Sundays with friends and good food are all about eh? 🍷🍴👯♀️
