About The Elizabethan

Built in 1874, The Elizabethan has the kind of history that shows in the bones of the place. Book a table for a group and the staff will have it decorated before you arrive — birthday bunting, a card, and a brownie with a candle if the occasion calls for it, brought out with a chorus of happy birthday. Ebony, Annetta and Saskia are names that keep coming up in recent reviews, which tells you something about how personally the team takes the job. The Sunday roast is the dish most people are here for, and the seabass, cheese and onion pie and apple crumble with bottomless gravy are what the regulars order around it. The beer garden is there if you want to see it, but on a cold October evening the room itself is the reason to come.

The Elizabethan is the neighbourhood spot done right — unhurried, unpretentious, with a wine list that gives it an edge over most of its category.

In the last 90 days, The Elizabethan has drawn 39 substantial written reviews (50+ characters of genuine feedback) — recent momentum that is one of the signals behind its place on the hot list.
