Hammer & Tongs - London

This restaurant is styled like a South African BBQ, known as a braai. If you're a meat lover, this place is perfect for you, but they also offer some vegetarian options. While they offer meat sharing platters, we decided to choose our own dishes. The portion sizes were smaller than expected for the price, so we had to order more food once it arrived. Our main dishes were tasty, but the malva pudding dessert (similar to treacle pudding with apricot flavor) tasted burnt on the outside. In hindsight, we should have ordered more main dishes instead of dessert. The service was decent, although it took a while for them to bring the bill and process payment. We were pleasantly surprised to receive a 50% discount at the end because it was January, making the meal a great value for the money.

We had a delightful experience at this restaurant. The waiter we had was very friendly and attentive, explaining everything to us. The food was flavorful and fresh, and we had plenty to share between the two of us. We would definitely come back here again.

We enjoyed a fantastic selection of well-cooked meats, including the Baby Braai. The beer selection was excellent, with most of the group trying different varieties. We also tried a few wines, which were equally good. This is a perfect spot for an indoor BBQ on a rainy day, with platters to share for groups of all sizes. Thank you for a great experience!

Absolutely incredible restaurant with good service and mind-blowing food! Miss home no more! This South African restaurant is one of the best I've ever been to!

Fantastic food, atmosphere and service. The smell of the wood fired grills gives off a wonderful aroma as you walk in. We ordered the beer bread starter, half a meter of boerewors, the Cape Malay veggie curry and the honey chicken sosatie. The food was excellent and great quality and flavour and I say this as a native south African. Finished off with a Malva pudding for dessert, a south African favourite! The service staff were super friendly and attentive too.
