This was my first visit to The Peacock Den. The first few words that come to mind are vintage, velvet and leather. The den has a very cosy and intimate setting seating approximately 50-60 max guests (my guess)
As a party of three we were seated on one of their leather couches. I felt this was not practical for a party of three. The narrow coffee like table bench was so close (which it had to be to eat) that to get yourself in a position to turn and talk to your friends was not comfortable at all.
I had the pink peacock cocktail which was nice but the bits of raspberry were constantly getting stuck in the tiny paper straw provided. I ended up giving up on the straw and drinking from the glass ending up with chunks of mint in my mouth trying to drink it.
For eats we shared the fried chicken, pork belly bao buns, truffle Mac and cheese and a bowl of fries.
Enjoyed the Bao buns but wish the pork had of had the crackling on it! Yum!
I can't say I was a fan of the truffle Mac but only because I think it's me that isn't a fan of truffle.
The chicken and the bbq sauce was delicious 👏
Fries were well.... fries are fries right?
For desert we had the hot jam donuts and the cheesecake. Donuts were really good, my only complaint ....not enough jam!
The cheesecake was also delicious, so smooth and tasty. I don't usually like baked cheesecake but this one was so good.
I'd go back only if I was guaranteed an actual chair and table and not a couch. There's many other dishes on their menu I'd love to try. See less
