Heard a lot of good things about this place. From friends and many reviews, not just blogs but also from broadsheet reviews who are impressed. Seeing as this was virtually a local I try to make time one lazy Sunday. For my visit I decided to test their Sunday roasts. I heard this was good and though there is a choice of Pork, Lamb, Chicken and Beef, knew from research that Beef and Lamb were very popular. It also meant booking early for the Sunday so nothing ran out with our choice. Coming in before 1pm(post New Years) it was relatively empty. I was actually surprised how big the place was. I knew it would fill up later, but I like when it’s not too crowded so the kitchen can pay attention to our order without rushing. Knowing exactly what we wanted we ordered the Lamb and Beef roasts. They came within 10−15mins. Again I was surprised… The portions were pretty generous which was good. The beef was nicely medium rare(even though they said rare). Still I liked the way it was cooked and was tender. With my beef(40 day age beef rump). I loved the fact the carrot came as one huge piece. Nicely cooked. As too the cabbage bedding the meat. Parsnips and roast potatoes were OK. Think potatoes could have done with some pre seasoning, or glazed in butter or Rosemary. The Windsor Pork Belly I tried was excellent. I must admit lamb is my favourite meat. Always get a bit of mustard and of course mint sauce on the side. Someone will gladly come and serve some when you start which is nice. It was very tender. Same sides as beef. My gravy was running out so I asked for a bit more gravy and they were happy to oblige, coming back with a fresh pot of gravy for my my beef(they asked specifically which roast I had presumably to get the right type of stock gravy to go with it). Service was so so. They perked up with a smile by the end. I really liked the setting, décor and vibe of the place and by 2pm it was getting more full. Will hopefully come back to try a 3 course special or tasting, at night to sample ambiance. Another thing I want to try is the sherry of Manzanilla which I heard is very good. Good addition to area, especially on a street which is now seeing more eateries finally.

This was absolutely the best meal I enjoyed in London — unexpectedly delicious food combinations that were expertly executed. Three of us enjoyed the cheese fritters(amazing), broccolini with duck eggs and truffle oil(never tried anything like it), squid with cream sauce, venison, and liver veal. Everything was fresh, I believe most of the food is locally produced, and the waitstaff was helpful in directing us to the best dishes & wine pairings. The overall vibe was comfortable, yet refined. The location is off the beaten path and seems to be a neighborhood favorite. We’re a hard to impress crew that have eaten at some of the best international restaurants, from hole-in-the-walls to white linens, and I couldn’t more highly recommend Heirloom to the foodie traveler and local alike.

I’ve been there twice, first on a Saturday night, and then for a Sunday roast. This restaurant opened in June this year and the great thing about them is the change the menu daily and grow a lot of their own vegetables on their own farm. They also source rare breed meats, I must say that was the first time I had a roast and the beef was not dry! The first time I went to Heirloom I had the tasting menu, which was fantastic. I had scallops, smoked fillet steak, new season grouse and turbot along with their own grown tomatoes, simply served but packed with flavour. Also, we tried the selection of cheeses, all of which were described very well by our server, and were all delicious! The dessert was a homemade doughnut, sounds quite simple but I was served with a dark chocolate mousse, white chocolate sauce and honeycomb, which all worked brilliantly together! I would recommend everybody to try it, as soon as possible before it is too busy to get a table!
