I felt a bit like a genius because I was choosing a place for several friends to meet up and we all…read morewanted different things. I wanted something with at least one good veggie option, they wanted something with meat, and it had to be somewhere in-between Camden and Canary Wharf, not too pricey, and ideally close to the city because otherwise our Italian friend probably wouldn't make it. And lo and behold.... THE FAT BEAR!!! It was all we wanted and more! This place is sort of tucked away and up some stairs above a pub. It's really just a room and a half, which makes it super cozy and they have a pretty awesome looking bar. It's got warm lighting which makes the atmosphere really nice. Their cocktails were delightful and the service was excellent. I will make a very strange observation that someone working there had a very drunk friend who just sort of made herself at home. Then more joined and it turned into me watching this table of really really drunk people trying to order food. Two of them ended up just falling asleep. It was super strange. Anyway, me being distracted aside, I really loved the cocktail I ordered- Sloe Boat To China, and everyone else seemed happy with theirs. I was dying to try the pimiento cheese starter and the fried pickles. The cheese was particularly sharp and delicious. The pickles were good, but quite skinny (I mean come on, you're in an American restaurant I was expecting some serious pickles). The vegan gumbo was super spicy and delicious. I was impressed and enjoyed it. My husband dropped the ball and ordered the regular jambalaya (with sausage) rather than the seafood one which broke my heart a little bit, because I really wanted to try it. You know, I guess that means we'll just have to come back. Oh also another bonus, this place has brisket which is really hard to find. I can't say how it tastes but my friend said he defo approves (am I becoming more British with these words, or just more annoying?) Anyway, to finish it off I had the oreo cheesecake which the bomb. I love oreos. And it tasted like oreo. So all was right with the world. A wonderful place to come if you have people who want to try American food, or if you have out of town Americans who are too scared to try other food, or if you have hungry friends that want to try cajun food, or if you just want to try some really yummy food.

Talk about some good, fried chicken wings! I loved that they…read morewere the "whole" wing... so instead of breaking them into 2 (drum and wing), they kept them together. I'm not sure what makes chicken wings better that way, but it works! The wings were fried to perfection, with just a little extra crunch than I usually like but they were still awesome. I got the buffalo and my friend got the honey bbq. If I had to choose again, I'd opt for the honey bbq. The ranch is an extra .50 and honestly not worth it. The wings have enough flavor and the ranch isn't very good. They do all you can eat wings on Wednesday's I believe... possibly Thursday. You can also do BOGO drinks during happy hour. I'd definitely come back, for the wings alone. The drinks were a bit sweet and a bit weak for my taste. Seating upstairs and downstairs. Service is eh, but again - worth it for the fried chicken!

Ever since visiting Jamaica I have been on the search for really good delicious Jamaican food and…read moreever since moving to Croydon I've realised that there are plenty of places here to try out. Caribsoul recently opened up right across the street from my local watering hole, The George and I was intrigued by it. It doesn't look like much but it boasts a few of the popular Caribbean fares: jerk pork, jerk chicken, ackee and saltfish, curry goat etc. My boyfriend and I went out to eat it on a whim, excited by the possibility of having proper Caribbean food. The people working there were kind and informed us that they had just opened up two weeks prior (this was about two weeks ago) so we were some of their newest customers. We ordered our food, I had the Jerk Pork, my other half the Jerk Chicken (exciting I know) and decided to sit in and eat. The food came quickly partly because there weren't many people in there. From what I recall of the food it was pretty decent; very spicy as it should be. My pork was a little tough with quite a bit of fat around the edges an issue that I can easily overlook because many big restaurants do the same. The portions were immense for the roughly £8 I paid and there were several cuts of pork and my boyfriend got a few sizable pieces of chicken thigh. It was served with a heap of rice and peas and some coleslaw. Overall the way I feel about this place is undecided because I decided to visit so early in its business days. I really enjoyed my first visit and felt that this place had really good potential. Once it sees a bit more business they can really start taking off and producing even better meals but for now it's definitely in a good starting place and I would certainly go there again.

As you're placing your order you experience Tony's charisma and positive energy. They have a good selection of Jamaican and American soul foods. Their food is prepared to perfection.

The restaurant is super cute and wasn't too noisy, making it a great place to catch up with a friend. We ordered three dishes: the beef carpaccio, cacio & pepe, and the tagliarini with Dorset crab. The cacio & pepe was my favorite by far. The portion felt right and the flavour was amazing. Sometimes it's the simplest dishes that are the best! The tagliarini was amazing as well, the flavours were really balanced. I liked the beef carpaccio but it only comes with 5 slices of beef and considering that it was a £14 dish, we didn't really think it was worth it. It was yummy though! Would definitely come back for the cacio & pepe alone.
