The Sunday Roast is a British institution, and if you don't fancy cooking it yourself, then you can find plenty of restaurants that will provide a quality offering in the BCP area.
However, if you really want to get stuck in with an enormous amount of food and stack your plate high, then sharing roasts might be for you.
These will obviously be a bit more expensive than a regular plate, but with the options to pick and choose between all the various meats and trimmings, what's not to love?
A number of BCP restaurants offer sharing options for Sunday Roasts, and here are a few you can try.
