There’s an appealing selection of mouthwatering meals on offer, as honest in nature as they are delicious. The cooked sandwiches, burgers and finger-food are all readily available and quickly served; a perfect match for your first pint of the night. There’s a wide range of meats, including pork and beef, along with equally impressive vegetarian options, such as the Southern Fried Mushroom burger, which is as good as fungi gets. A less common meat, the rabbit springs forth from the menu, and Sir Chicory makes sure it’s for all the right reasons. The pulled rabbit roll has a hearty patty, which is enhanced by a slab of coleslaw and a range subtle spices trickled through the meat. The buttered bun adds a necessary crunch, and with a pickle garnishing on top, you’ll soon be convinced to increase the amount of rabbit in your diet. If you’re feeling particularly impulsive, the menu also includes the jerk rabbit jaffle. A no-nonsense spin on a toasted cheese sandwich, where the bunny merges with delectable Jamaican spices. A personal favourite would be the jalapeno gem nachos; an interesting take on an old comfort food, which is perfect to share or simply gorge all by yourself. Thickly coated in a secret Napoli sauce and drizzled with cheese, the jalapeno gem nachos illustrate the malleability of the Tex Mex classic.
