While not cheap, it certainly is a massive treat. Pushing the boundaries and expectations of British food, The Jugged Hare innovates with its selection of unusual accompaniments for roast dinners. Smoked cod’s roe, whipped salt fish, caper hash browns, baked sea snails, Middle White pork & peppercorn terrine, all seem unlikely pairings for a traditional roast dinner. The Jugged Hare doesn’t care, but instead relies on its knowledge and confidence to know what works and what doesn’t.
Unusually still, they serve Sunday roast from the rotisserie: Suffolk free range chicken, pigs in blankets (all year round), sage stuffing and bread sauce. Otherwise, their classics of 45 day aged Longhorn beef, Tamworth pork belly, and Welsh leg of lamb make for one of the best roast dinners in the capital. All served with yorkies, duck fat roast potatoes, seasonal veg, and rotisserie gravy, the roasts on offer at the Hare are nothing short of sublime.
Value for money is a big sticking point nowadays, with many roast-lovers maligning the more high-end spots in favour of say, a Toby Carvery. But this is massively missing the point of what makes eating out so special. How often are you going to order a whole suckling pig? Or a British cheeseboard paired with 10 year old Tawny port? Why not, for even just one night a year, dine like a king of a decaying dynasty? The Jugged Hare answers these questions with the best ingredients available, presented expertly, by chefs who love to roast. Treat yourself, you deserve it. It’s time to get gourmet.
