The Axe

"Sunday Lunch - yummy. Fabulous rare roast beef, brilliant Yorkshire puds. Belly pork with crackling - melt in the mouth with great crispy crackling, apple sauce tasted homemade and was gorgeous. A side of cauliflower cheese, just right. Downs? The roast potatoes were very hard, beyond crisp. I thought it was my knife but all 6 of us had same problem. Tasty gravy but charging £2 for a small pot of extra gravy we felt a bit stingy. The accompanying carrots and broccoli just a tad undercooked for some. No one wants soggy veg but thick broccoli stems needed just a bit more. Really good horseradish sauce went with the beef. Only one of us (me) could manage a pud. The sticky toffee pudding was so delicious, plenty of toffee sauce and generous scoop of ice cream. Certainly can't fault the portion sizes on the mains or dessert. So £193 for 6 (mains @ £20, pud £6.50, extra for gravy and cauliflower cheese, 2 rounds of diet cokes and 2 pints) I thought very reasonable. The place quickly filled up and my son said that booking is advisable as most Sundays it is full. I think deservedly so. It was overall very good. There is no signage out front to indicate that it was The Axe but google maps took us straight there. Thoroughly enjoyable."

"Love the Axe. Superb beer range covering a whole host of styles: pales, sours, stouts from mainly independent breweries. They also run two cask lines. It has a great atmosphere too: light and airy by day, cosy and comforting by night. The roasts on Sunday are great too. A great choice for any beer or pub lovers out there."

"Great pub, used to live nearby and always liked it here so travelled across London just for that Sunday roast. Best roast dinner I've had in London, and the beer choice is always great with 10+ beer on tap so you always find a beer you will like."

"Kind and very nice staff. Bar guys really knows what they re doing. Large scale of refreshing drinks. Service team is firing. Friendly and cosy atmosphere. They have backyard to have fresh air under friendly lights. Place is very nice to have time with your lovebodies or even alone. Cheers to all!"
