Meatballs at the Quality Chop House


The Quality Chop House is a restaurant just around the corner from work but I have never ventured in before. They recently introduced the 'Meatballs' concept to the place - basically it keeps all the look and feel of the old place (which is grade 2 listed) but now they serve... yeap you guessed it, meatballs!


Meatballs have the addition of a new logo retro looking logo on the canopy but other than that the place looks the same. Inside it does look great with black and white tiling, wooden oak booths (with seat slightly too narrow to sit comfortably), old fashioned light fittings, frosted windows and wood panelling. It was designed by Sir Roland Plumbe in the 1870's, offering the working classes hearty grub.

They have a great selection of meatballs which can be served with different 'underneath's' such as mashed potato, risotto and spaghetti. I went for two beef and ricotta in tomato sauce and two pork and rosemary with parmesan cream sauce on mash potato with a side of creamed spinach. Both types of meatballs were delicious and huge so I would stick to just three next time and maybe not mix them but I wanted to try them all! Unusual they do veggie meatballs and the growing in popularity sliders.

The drinks are pretty great too, I went for the homemade still limeade which really cut through the meatiness of the main meal. I also tried a banana milkshake which was so moorish my friend demolished it in about a minute.
