Harden's survey result
Summary
With its “straightforward” offering including “very good fish and lamb” and its “welcome service”, this offshoot of a Brighton steakhouse is “a top option in the locality of The Bridge Theatre”, near City Hall – “it just works”.
Summary
“A restaurant of choice when you go to the nearby Bridge Theatre” – this five-year-old sibling to a Brighton original provides “a good welcome”, plus “very good steaks” and a “short but acceptable” menu of other options. “If it were not a little pricey for what it offers, I would be even more enthusiastic!”
Summary
Surprisingly limited, but all round very good, feedback on this London sibling to a Brighton original, where steaks, Sunday roasts and BBQ feasts are the mainstays of the menu. It’s a good-looking contemporary venue too, convenient for the new Bridge Theatre.
Summary
In the shiny new developments south of Tower Bridge, this stylish, but “down-to-earth” three-year-old (sibling to an original in Brighton) has a “wide menu” – from “delicious seafood” to mouthwatering steak – but it’s perhaps the “very meaty” dishes that score the highest approval ratings (charcoal grilled British beef cuts are a mainstay of the menu, and the Moroccan goat dish, when it’s on, is terrific).

The Coal Shed Restaurant Diner Reviews
"A mid week lunch outing. A very friendly, warm greeting at the door. Shown to a good table. We all opted for the garlic prawn starters followed with two on the poussin dish, me, on the cod. The presentation is special, a lot of effort is put into that 1st look you get when you receive your food. We could not fault the staff serving at table. Wine served with panache !!. Quality of the ingredients, excellent. If we had one small grumble it would be... the temperature of the food... it could have been hotter. All in all in a good lunch, "
