RESTAURANT REVIEW: Cookhouse Joe, Soho - Blood Sweat And ...

Some may sit back and enjoy the success, but the creators of Dean Street Pizzeria Soho Joe have decided to not rest on their laurels and have recently launched Cookhouse Joe, a Lebanese inspired rotisserie chicken restaurant just off Oxford Street.

Those who have been to Soho Joe will know how manic it can get in the evenings with queues often going outside the entrance, however strolling up to Cookhouse Joe at 6pm; I’m pleasantly surprised to find an altogether more relaxed atmosphere with plenty of tables to choose from in the 2 storey eatery.

Cookhouse Joe is entirely family run and we are greeted by ‘Mama Joe’ who excitingly tells us all about the family’s long history of restaurant owning with such passion it’s hard not to feel engaged.

Made daily by Mama Joe herself, Cookhouse Joe’s Apple Pie is simply magnificent, made with a buttery pastry, a sprinkling of cinnamon and a healthy dollop of love, it’s not something that can be reproduced en masse and is a MUST.

London is awash with chefs attempting to create the planet’s most complex, unique menu, so it’s refreshing that Cookhouse Joe is bucking the trend by sticking to traditional recipes without compromise.

Cheese and Biscuits: Cookhouse Joe, Soho

The frightening number of sub-par burger places trying to mop up the dregs from the MeatLiquor crowds, or the nationwide sandwich chain that added a pulled pork bun to its shelves (for shame) in a pitiful attempt to grab a bit of the Pitt Cue custom, are proof that for every innovator, every creative force, everyone wanting to genuinely and honestly make nice food to make other people happy, there's a group of suits with a chequebook and the moral code of a tarantula ready to leap in and laminate some menus the second they see a queue forming.

The Next Big Thing, kicked off by Chicken Shop in Kentish Town and followed swiftly by Clockjack Oven in Soho, is rotisserie chicken.

And anyway there are still ways around the problem, such as Clockjack Oven's brining method, which means they stay lovely and moist and firm for longer, or the turnover thanks to the hordes of hungry North Londoners piling through the doors at Chicken Shop, meaning nothing hangs around for long.

For £6, you are offered a half of a free-range chicken, with fries and either salad or corn or coleslaw, a price point which gives even Nando's (£10 for the same) a run for its money.

I hate Cookhouse Joe because they have one job - to serve roast chicken - and they are absolutely no good at it at all.

Soho Joe's, Soho review

Unbelievably, Soho seemed quite short on the pizza front – well, within the distance I was prepared to walk anyway.

We found Soho Joe within a ten minute walk from Aberlay Street.

You can’t order at the table at Soho Joe’s, and the front of house didn’t inform us of the ordering process so I was left a little confused, going up to the bar to order to be re-directed to a randomly placed ordering section with a till.

I soon found out that my desire to wear the trousers was short lived as Soho Joe’s don’t take cards, and I’m awful at carrying cash.

The pizza came and it more than made up for Soho Joe’s minor short falls.

Soho Joe review – cheap Soho pizzas and burgers | The Picky Glutton

Although Soho Joe servers up burgers, pastas and a grab bag of other Italian dishes, its main selling point is its cheap pizzas.

Although I’d passed by the place on many occasions, I’d never felt compelled to actually go in until one weekday lunchtime when I was need in of an inexpensive lunch with Higgs-Boson, Socialist Worker, Templeton Peck and Porn Master.

Even with the old Hamburger Union fittings, Soho Joe feels like the merger of a student common room with a canteen given the profusion of local theatre posters, the counter at which you place and pay for your order and the bustling hordes of bright-eyed, bushy-tailed clientele.

Few come more bright-eyed than Higgs-Boson who appeared to have some sort of vendetta against vegetables that day, noshing on  meatballs in a tomato sauce topped with parmesan and accompanied with nothing more than a chunk of ciabatta bread.

Porn Master’s Napoli pizza appeared to be almost identical to our chorizo pizzas, but lacking the olives and with the chorizo replaced by chunks of chicken breast.

"I was with my friend for dinner tonight, everything was fine until the waitress dropped the oil on the floor.

All oli spilled over my new shirt and my hair.

I didn’t even hear a word, I'm sorry.

Please note, Soho Joe is currently closed, but is set to reopen in December 2017.

A popular pizzeria, restaurant and bar on Dean Street, Soho Joe keeps the crowds drawn thanks to its combo of inexpensive pizzas, generous happy hours and love of a promotion.

It's next door to the Soho Theatre and gets a few from there pre- and post-show.

A solid range of pizzas is served alongside classic salads, steak sandwiches and a selection of burgers that now includes those made with British wagyu beef.
