Being British territory, Gibraltar takes its Sunday roast seriously. Several pubs and restaurants serve a proper roast with all the trimmings — here's where to find the best.
The Top Picks
The Star Bar on Parliament Strut serves a classic British roast with generous Yorkshire puddings and proper gravy. The Lord Nelson in Casemates is the go-to for families — big portions, roast beef carved at the bar, and a kids' roast option.
For something slightly more upscale, The Steakhouse at the Rock Hotel does a refined roast with a view across the Strait. The Clipper in Ocean Village offers a roast with a side of marina views and a pint of British ale.
What to Expect
- Roast beef, lamb, chicken, or pork — most offer a vegetarian nut roast too
- Yorkshire puddings are standard (this is British territory, after all)
- Prices: £12–£18 for a full roast
- Served from around 12:30pm — book ahead on Sundays
The Verdict
You won't find a better Sunday roast south of London until you hit the Costa del Sol. The Star Bar and Lord Nelson are the local favourites; book a table if you're visiting on a Sunday — they fill up fast.
