5 /5 Angelica R: This place is such a vibe! My best friend and I booked through The Fork. This restaurant has one of the best service I’ve received; I didn’t catch their names but they were so friendly and funny, it definitely made our experience even more enjoyable.
The food was mouthwatering:- the taste, presentation and portion sizes were out of this world. For starters, we had the Ham Hock Croquettes. These were soooo beautiful, the croquettes had the right amount of crunch and each bite melted in your mouth. I’d eat 100 of them if I could lmao. For the mains, we had the Trio of Roasts, which came with sides already. We ordered an extra Yorkshire pudding and the staff gave us a heads up that they were bigger than usual and that they’re homemade (bonus points btw cos wow). Each cut of meat was sensational, words cannot describe how delicious the mains were:- like you have to eat here to know exactly what I mean! The roast potatoes were beautifully cooked and super crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I’ve dined at many restaurants but Barge East is in my top 3 for best roast potatoes. For desserts, I had panna cotta; this was extremely soft to the taste and a very small portion. My best friend had the chocolate ganache, it was soooo pretty. The dessert was a lovely way to round up the starters and main courses. Anyways I took some pics, have a look at them for reference:)
The toilets were funky, in the sense that they’re not the conventional restaurant toilets but I also understand that it’s a restaurant on a boat so it’s a really cool concept.
Overall a 10/10 restaurant, it has such a wonderful homely feel. The service (including their playlist btw, which is sooo cool) from the start to the end was impeccable, alongside the food! I’d definitely visit again :D
