Fantastic little restaurant in Croydon, advertising "steaks as big as you like" photo.
The steak as you would suspect is great, as is the apple crumble.
The menu seems not to have been updated since the '70s — starters are things like tomato soup (the only thing we've found yet to not be great), liver pate, grilled sardines, egg mayonnaise. If you're not a fan of steak then the salmon is also recommended. Note that as of April 2012 there are no vegetarian main courses on the menu.
