As winter closes in we seek comfort in the city. There’s nothing quite like trudging through the cold to a local haunt and enjoying a traditional roast dinner with lashings of gravy to warm the soul. London being London, the humble roast is now something of an art form with fierce competition between pubs and chefs - some of them even bringing in Sunday specialist chefs to stay ahead of the pack. And a roast isn’t just a dinner, it’s a chance to unwind before the week ahead and enjoy conversation with friends and family – and possibly get in some much needed recovery for a sore post-Saturday-night head. We’ve all got our favourite places, but we’ve compiled a list of some of the best roasts around town in case you feel like trying something new this winter. We’ve a recommendation in North, South, East and West – we hope you enjoy them!
