MEATliquor

Exquisite Burgers and Legendary Service Await!

As you approach The Dartmouth Arms, nestled in the heart of Forest Hill, London, the irresistible allure of sizzling flavors discreetly wafts through. In a neighborhood brimming with sunny optimism and hallowed turn-of-the-century architecture, this MEATliquor outpost takes hamburgers to near-mythical status, promising a juxtaposition of gourmet burgers and artisanal brews. The iconic venue, originally established in 1848, recently morphed into an urban sanctuary for anyone craving robust, hearty food paired with the finest selection of beers on tap–a vibrant confluence of culinary art and traditional pub culture.

Upon entering, you're greeted by sleek decor that merges nostalgic elegance—think bold neon signs amid lush greenery—with rustic charm. The service, led by affable staff who notably ensure even the canine companions are suitably pampered, creates an instant sense of welcome. Prachetha is emblematic of hospitality; always seemingly one step ahead of your whims, making her presence as reassuring as your first bite into a gloriously succulent burger. For those with a penchant for plant-based indulgences, the vegetarian and vegan selections are commendable, though served alongside their meaty counterparts on a singular tray—drawing mixed opinions. With each exquisite mouthful, be it a luscious Chillionaire or novel iterations of fries, the kitchen plays a symphony of taste dictated by visceral satisfaction. At once unpretentious and enlivening, The Dartmouth Arms could very well be South London's Halcyon nucleus of hedonistic dining. — Audrey Al Dente
