Not everyone's favourite, but if you would like to try Pie and mash it is a traditional London working-class food, originating in London. Pie, mash and eel shops have been in London since the 19th century M.Manze was established in 1902 by Michele Manze - the present owners' Grandfather. They serve traditional Pie and Mash and Eels (jellied or stewed), in authentic surroundings. At Manzes, we still use the same recipes today for the pies and liquor as were used in 1902, the only changes made have been to improve quality and to meet the higher food standards of today.

Oyster farmers turned restaurateurs, Wright Brothers specialise in fresh seafood – particularly oysters. There’s no shortage of choice on the menu, from juicy potted prawns, dressed crab, whelks and shellfish platters to seared tuna with dark miso aïoli, Thai-style curried mussels, grilled skate with chilli jam or truffled Orkney clams with chunks of tender Ibérico pork. But it’s the oysters that are truly unmissable: there are usually at least six seasonal varieties to choose from, plus deep-fried, smoked, dressed and citrus-marinated versions.
