British Cuisine is taking over Miami Beach

There’s a new spot bringing some English charm to this side of the pond. The British Garden, with chef Christopher Davey at the helm, now open at the Hotel Chelsea in Miami Beach. You can expect to find traditional faves like Fish and Chips and Scotch Eggs to some chef driven twists on other dishes like poutine. The outdoor area right on Washington Avenue is perfect for people watching while the indoor bar with a British feel is great for some after work drinks.

 We started our meal with a cheese board that had manchego (with a coffee rub), different cheddar cheeses, jam, zak the baker baguette, and Italian olives. I would literally have this every afternoon if I could, paired with a nice glass of wine, wouldn't that be lovely....

One of the highlights of our meal had to be the Big Ben Burger. An angus patty topped with melted sharp cheddar and their signature big ben sauce on ZTB brioche. The burger was cooked to perfection, juicy and full of flavor. The side of french fries also came topped with more of that yummy big ben sauce. I'm hoping the chef will give me the recipe for this secret sauce!

We also had the pulled pork poutine, let me just say it was hard to have will power and not eat the entire plate. Their yummy chips are topped with pulled pork in a delicious maple bbq gravy with melted cheese. I see you.... drooling over there.

They have a nice variety of dessert options also, from fried snickers to a black cherries chocolate cake trifle. My favorite though was the toffee pudding, served warm with a toffee sauce you can drizzle over.

I already look forward to my next visit to The British Garden. Be sure to follow them on IG as they will be having a few themed nights that are sure to be a delicious blast. The British Garden at Hotel Chelsea: (305) 676-5455 · 944 Washington Ave Miami Beach, FL 33139
