Elephant & Castle Beacon is the next exciting new chapter in the Elephant & Castle story. The fourth Elephant & Castle has opened in the bustling Beacon South Quarter, bringing an exciting new addition to the Sandyford area. The menu will feature the same great dishes that make Elephant & Castle a firm favourite. From the fluffy omelettes, caesar salads and juicy burgers, and, of course, those crispy, spicy wings. We’re focusing on friendly, laid-back service; tasty as ever food and a relaxed atmosphere - everything Elephant & Castle lovers have come to expect from a visit to our place.

    The wings are always great but very disappointed and surprised by the battered cod burger. The batter was rock hard and fish didn’t taste great.

    I brought 6 boys for my son’s 11th birthday. I left them sit on a table on there own and they seated myself & my brother in law at a different table to make the boys feel j portent ordering themselves. They went above and beyond for them. Bringing out a candle in he’s desert and singing happy birthday. Nothing was to much trouble. Food was amazing. We will definitely be back asap . Cannot recommend enough. Thank you guys

    Very poor expereince, overrated food, cold, veggie burger was from the freezer and so dry, the tuna sandwich you would get better in a deli and the chips were cold and over cooked. Would have been better going to mcdonalds.

    This was a real let down. Service was fine but the food quality was terrible. The chips tasted like they had just been reheated and the salad was the worst and cheapest ingredients I have ever had. It also took 40 minutes from when we entered, sat, ordered, got food, ate, paid bill and left. For a party of 5 that's way too fast. Even my 5 year old said, I am giving this a double thumbs down
