What is it?
In a nutshell: 50% party, 50% roast dinner.
Shoreditch’s Beach Blanket Babylon are your host for a two course Sunday roast dinner that seats 5-18 guests. Said dinner comes with MEAT and ‘all the trimmings’ (OK not all of them WHERE THE PARSNIPS AT? but roast potatoes, carrots and onions)
As for mains: You have a choice of: lamb shoulder, suckling pig, rib of beef and chicken.
As for desserts: You can choose from: apple pie or lemon meringue pie
And this also includes, for some reason, bottomless Bloody Marys…
Combining Sunday Roasts and a party (on Sunday, obviously) is a pretty…astute idea that I can’t say I’ve seen in all that many places. Also when it’s a party at someone else’s place (i.e BBB’s place) you don’t need to do the washing up. Unless you want to.
Where is it?
Beach Blanket Babylon – 19-23 Bethnal Green Road, E1 6LA
It is not available at their Notting Hill branch.
How much does it cost?

Is the food good?
Having eaten a fair few roasts in our time, we thought so!
