Elephant & Castle

E&C, which has the look of a local pub, has been churning out monster-size omelettes and specialty burgers for more than 30 years. Hearty entrées like a tangy basil-mayo portobello sandwich, slow-braised chicken and spicy Mexican salad with chicken and avocado rise above the usual pub grub. If they’re available, be sure to order the crêpes stuffed with apricot essence or strawberry preserves. The welcoming staff makes every customer feel like their home is the Castle.
