The details 📝
Besk is a bar, kitchen and bottleshop that offers a rotating and curated selection of beers, wines and spirits and seasonal menus. The establishment is named after an old Danish term "besk". The term not only describes a flavour profile, but also highlights their commitment towards ingredients and community experiences which are free of pretentiousness.
Step into Besk, and you'll find a large bar space and a small dining area flanked by their bottleshop.
Besks bottleshop offers a range of ever changing beers, wines and spirits. You can opt to buy a bottle for drink-in or takeaway.
Besk's food menu changes with the seasons. Our last visit was in June 2022.
After a handful of visits to Besk, our favourite always is their steak. It does vary depending what's in season. We particularly loved the sear, potato cake and the roasted cabbage (who knew roasted cabbage would be so delicious).
Besks pan roasted gnocchi is light, fluffy and offers lots of textural variation. We didn't like the gnocchi as much as we felt there were a bit too many elements going on for us.
We always order prawn rolls or croquette if we see them. They both whetted our appetites.
Regarding the croquettes, we did find the addition of miso mayo a little overpowering, given the croquettes were already creamy from the gouda croquettes. Perhaps a less creamy condiment would pair better.
Their bang bang fried chicken have a permanent place on Besk's menu. Chunky and juicy pieces of chicken!
