I was lured in not only by the look of the place, but also the look of the crowd sitting outside - plenty of those obviously professional, but hip looking sorts. The friend who was with me, who works in fashion, actually said she recognized several people there - faces that she attached to various fashion labels - so that gives you a sense of who comes here (and lives in the area!) Pizzas are definitely the main event here... everybody around us seemed to be eagerly ordering one, and even though there are a handful of other salads and such on the menu, we followed the crowd by splitting a margarita pizza - which was very nice but probably the most mundanely topped crust on offer... the most off-the-wall creation would have to be their English Breakfast pizza (the description of which, I have to say, put us off a little.) This is definitely one of the less obvious (since it's a further walk) but better places to come if you find yourself in Victoria Park on a weekend afternoon and fancy a bite.

Everything was excellent--but Warren did not think our first experience with the fish and chips was up to par, so the second time we ordered it he made sure we got "proper" English pub fish and chips! I had several Guinness during our week long stay nearby, and the bartenders really know how to pull a proper glass! I highly recommend The Duke of York! Great vibe, live music some nights, but like most things, it's the people. And everyone who we interacted with made us feel welcome. Great people, great food, great beer!

After a very long travel day, I'm sure we were quite a sight, but our waiter was excellent and super patient with us, even taking the time to explain the country's tipping policy, which was above and beyond. Our food was incredible. A little green from the flight and cab ride, I opted for a lighter option with the goat cheese on toast, while others in my party enjoyed the bangers and mash lunch special, and the scotch egg. Though the exterior is pretty unassuming, the restaurant is very clean and decorated nicely by someone who is clearly a true music fan. We loved this spot, and would add it to the itinerary for any trip!

The pub has a traditional British feel, both inside and out, with limited seating on both floors. While their menus offer a wide variety of options, we were there solely for the Sunday Menu and Sunday Roast, and it did not disappoint. We started with a couple of pints and the Ibérico Ham Croquettes, served with aioli (£8 | $10.50 USD). I can best described them as three ground ham and cheese tater tots. They were delicious and made for a great start. For the main course, we both opted for the Aged Striploin Beef Roast. I loved that you could choose how it's cooked (medium-well for me & medium-rare for Chris). This is not common from what I understand. Each roast comes with roast potatoes, seasonal vegetables, homemade Yorkshire pudding, and red wine jus. Everything was simply delightful (£19.5 | $25.59 USD). To finish, we shared the churros (4 count), served with cinnamon and chocolate sauce. A perfect sweet ending to the meal (£6.5 | $8.53 USD). We also added a side of Cauliflower Cheese (£5 | $6.56 USD), which was rich, creamy, and served molten hot but was the perfect complement to the roast. The Dean Swift Pub was voted one of London's Top 25 Sunday Roasts by The Evening Standard, and it certainly lives up to the hype. I included both Sterling Pound and USD here to $ is a google estimate for an idea of the cost in the states.
