"...there is the “slow roast pork roll” made from all the trimmings tossed in a warm, crispy-soft bun with a bit of apple and unquestionably the best sandwich I have had this century." READ REVIEW

"It may be a positive sign of the times, though, that even in such an unlikely location you can find really good food nowadays. Everything from the scallops to the pork belly was robust and tasty: just the sort of fare your typical City punter probably wants." READ REVIEW

The English Pig is average

Found the food lovely here but would never return as thought that the owner was very hostile. Overheard him calling some customers something that I don't wish to repeat, and he was not being subtle about it.

This place could be good as theres not much else in the area but I would say keep Mr Mountain in the Kitchen as he quite obviously has no idea about how to behave on a restaurant floor. My party of 5 will never come back.
