East End Classic Pie, Mash, and Liquor

The traditional East End dish of pie, mashed potatoes, and rich meaty gravy is a comforting delight. The pie boasts a flaky crust filled with tender meat, while the creamy mashed potatoes complement it perfectly. The gravy adds a luscious finish, making each bite satisfying. This dish captures the essence of hearty, home-cooked comfort food, ideal for a cozy meal. A true classic that warms both the heart and the stomach.

Ploughman's Board

The classic British ploughman’s board offers a delightful assortment of cheeses, pickles, and fresh bread that truly captures the essence of a traditional pub experience. Each element is thoughtfully curated, with the cheeses providing a rich, varied flavor profile that pairs beautifully with the tangy pickles. The fresh bread adds a comforting touch, making it a satisfying choice for a casual meal or afternoon snack. A lovely homage to British cuisine!

Signature 'TSE' Burger

I recently tried the vegan burger, and it was a delightful experience. The patty was flavorful and well-seasoned, complemented perfectly by the classic toppings. The fries were crispy and made a great sidekick. Overall, this dish strikes a lovely balance between taste and texture, making it a satisfying choice for both vegans and non-vegans alike. Definitely worth a visit!

Sticky Toffee Pudding

This vegan take on the classic sticky toffee pudding is a delightful surprise. The dessert maintains the rich, comforting flavors we love, complemented beautifully by a warm toffee sauce that adds just the right amount of sweetness. The texture is wonderfully moist, making each bite a treat. It’s a fantastic option for those seeking a plant-based indulgence without sacrificing taste. Highly recommended!

Steak Ale and Mushroom Pie

This savory pie is a delightful comfort food experience. The rich filling of steak, ale, and mushrooms melds beautifully, offering a hearty flavor that warms the soul. The puff pastry topping is perfectly flaky, adding a satisfying crunch to each bite. While it might not be the lightest option, it certainly delivers on taste and heartiness. A wonderful choice for those seeking a satisfying meal.
