Roast Dinners During Lockdown

So…here we go again…again. Yet another lockdown and yet another list of pubs and restaurants doing roast dinner takeaways, deliveries or roast dinner kits.

This is not an exhaustive list. Please do let me know if I should add one to the list, either by comment, e-mail, Twitter, Instagrim – whatever your poison. Also my Instagrim manager will be posting roastings on this thing called Instagrim Stories for the 21 year-olds out there. I am almost twice your age, before you ask me for a dick pic.

I do not vouch for the quality of roast dinners listed here. Also this is only accurate at the time of writing – maybe some will stop during the coming weeks.

Please let me know any additions!

Also, myself and the wonderful London Popups (you should be following them already, right?) have been working on a map of takeaway/delivery roasts.

Leave this field empty if you're human:

The Forestor, Ealing. Takeaway carvery – not quite sure how a carvery works in lockdown times and I guess I’ll never find out! Call 020 8567 1654 to book a collection time.

The Crabtree, Hammersmith. Click and collect.

The Bull & Last, Kentish Town. Call 0207 267 3641 and or e-mail enquiries@thebullandlast.co.uk.

Frank’s Canteen, Highbury. Call 0207 3544830.

The Prince, N22 (where?!). Pre-order by 12pm on Sunday, e-mail or call.

Coal Rooms, Peckham. Order online.

Parks Edge Bar & Kitchen, Herne Hill. Call 0208 671 0306.

Latitude, Wimbledon. Don’t know anything – just seen a post on Instagrim.

Darby’s. Collection or delivery across many south London postcodes.

The Beast Of Brixton, Brixton. Book online for collection – this looks the bomb.

Roastman Pat, Battersea. I couldn’t not feature someone doing roasts with that name. Local delivery – call 07546 179 138. Maybe ask for Pat?

Dessert Deli, Clapham Junction. Listed as Sunday 22nd November – she doesn’t do them every week. These are the bomb, and the desserts are just sex. Trust me. Collection or delivery via this link.

The Selkirk, Tooting. No idea how you order, but you can figure that out yourself. Try their website.

The Old Nun’s Head, Peckham. Click and collect.

Hannah, Battersea. Collection only.

The Regent, Balham and The Perky Nel in Clapham. Sister pubs to each other, collection on Sunday, or they also do cook at home boxes, but south London only.

The King & Co. E-mail ahead to order, collection between 1pm and 5pm.

Up In My Grill, Kingston-Upon-Thames. Slide into their DMs or call 0203 582 0656. Not sure if this is every Sunday or just occasionally.

NEW – Hatched, Clapham. I think it is collection only and cook yourself.

Central London Lockdown Roasts

The Grazing Goat, Marylebone. Order online.

The Duke of Wellington, Marylebone. Order online.

XR, Marylebone. Don’t worry, this is not your favourite environmental terrorist group. I think available on Deliveroo but unclear because Instagram is shit.

East London Lockdown Roasts

The Nelson’s Pub, Hackney. Collection and booking advised before Sunday.

The Marksman, Bethnal Green. Finish at home roasts, call on 020 7739 7393 – collection or delivery available.

The Plough, Homerton. Apparently doing giant Yorkie roast wrap. So not quite a roast dinner…but close enough to list! Call 0790 7298 224.

Queen Victoria, Theydon Bois (where?!). Call 01992 812392.

The Angel, Bow. Call to order – 020 7537 3045.

West London Lockdown Roasts

Popup Emporium, Ealing. I’ve actually reviewed this and can vouch for it! Damn good.

The Grove, Ealing. A Deliveroo jobby.

All London

Rotunda. Delivered on a Sunday morning across London.

Aktar Islam. Argentinian Sirloin Roast Dinner (1kg) for 4 people, £65 from Birmingham. Yeah, not London.

Woodkraft. From Cheltenham, delivering a Sunday roast box with dessert for £20. Minimum order £40 – but they do other meals also. Their website is a bit weird on desktop.

Blacklock. World-beating. Order now. You actually really need to do this. Read my review of Blacklock At Home here.

Jimmy’s Popups. This is a 3 course meal, including a Sunday roast, in a cook at home box. £70 seems to be the minimum order. Read my review of Jimmy’s Popups here.

Sam’s Chop Shop (Manchester). Chef-ready meal kits delivered nationwide – roasts with dessert around £18 plus delivery.

Ginger Pig. Chicken box for £65 – you’ll need to cook yourself from scratch, oh and buy your own veggies.

Roasted by Jack Blumenthal and Scott Perkins. Roast dinners in a box for £28.50 – not sure if that includes dessert and/or delivery. Guess I’ll find out when I order one.

Drake & Morgan. A roast dinner in a box, enough for 2 people for £45 – delivered within the M25 and surrounding home counties.

Noble House Prepared. Frozen roast dinners – but probably a lot better.

Townsend. Chicken, beef or pork in a box – with all the ingredients you’d expect…except a yorkie.

Darby’s. £50 for a 3 course meal for 2 people, including Sunday roast of course. I think the menu changes every week.

Hawksmoor. A variety of boxes, all with steak and some as roast dinners. You can read my review here. And yeah, it’s very good!

NEW – Lively Hood. Delivery within London postcodes (so not places like Harrow, of course).

NEW – The Lowry Hotel, Manchester. A 4-course roast dinner kit for 2 people, for £49. Would be twice the price in London.

NEW – The Roast Kings. £12.95 for a roast kit – they have turkey and gammon options alongside the usual suspects (and vegan ones) – plus you can build your own roast. Who doesn’t want to build their own roast? NO PEAS. Always no peas. I assume that you can order for one person?

NEW – The Stafford, London. £100 for The Game Bird’s Roast Box – which includes starter, dessert, roasts and a bottle of red wine.

NEW – The Lazy Gourmand. Affordable roast dinners which just need 10-15 minutes at home to finish off – they have a rhubarb & apple crumble dessert too. Plus I think you can order for just one person.
