American TikToker Tries First British Sunday Roast at Kensington Pub, Calls It ‘Thanksgiving Without Turkey’

He filmed a feast at The Cadogan Arms and urged first‑time visitors to England to try the tradition.

Overview

  • Jon Barr visited The Cadogan Arms on Kensington’s King’s Road and posted his first Sunday roast experience to TikTok.
  • He opened with a black pudding Scotch egg plus Irish soda bread and steak tartare, praising the starters as fresher and better than expected.
  • For the main course he chose the Sunday Sharer Board with native rump of beef with bone‑marrow gravy, slow‑roasted pork belly and shoulder of lamb, which he described as super tender and full of flavour.
  • He finished with rhubarb crumble, strawberry trifle and sticky toffee pudding, calling the overall experience a must‑do for newcomers to England.
  • UK outlets highlighted mixed viewer comments about authenticity and Scotch eggs, and noted the pub’s menu and pricing, including £36.50 per person for the sharer board and individual roasts at £34, £30 and £75.
