I love Meat and I love People so I had a high hopes for Angel's new meat house, Meat People. The staff were friendly, the vibe was on trend and, most importantly, their cuts of meat were outstanding. If you are a meat lover then this needs to become your new playground. I seriously recommend this to anyone looking to a enjoy a good bit of meat with some simple yet tasty sides. Thank you Meat People, Angel needed a reliable Meat House!

Great little place. They have done what they can with a building i can only assume is listed and lets face it, it was a caff before. Its now a classy little art deco joint that serves loads of meats and has a really different vibe than anywhere I've been. Food was a far higher standard than i expected. Really well done I'm so happy for a place like this on my doorstep. I will be trying the Kangaroo next time!

Been to Meat People couple of times, it was a really good place to be, felt comfortable and cozy, friendly environment and staff were on the spot.
Food was great, steak was juicy and wine section was amazing, me and my girlfriend decided to make it our favourite lunch place, although it fits any other occasion. Friends at dinner or even a special dinner with family or colleagues.
Would definitely go back, Get what your moneys worth!

Just visited Meat people, my new Steak house in Islington. I was hoping for something a little more personal than the machine feel of Hawksmoor and Gaucho. And i can happily report i got it.

I was greeted by a beaming waitress who took us to the bar where i was handed a complimentary glass of champagne, well bubbly anyway - Amazing!

We sat in a lovely warm corner of the restaurant on lovely yellow leather seats, our bread came free of charge as did the water.

We ordered 3 courses and considering the place was quite busy it all came promptly and cooked perfectly. I had the Fillet from their daily specials and my friend had the Pork Iberico Secreto. Neither of us had tried the pork cut before but it blew me away, i never knew it existed but its fantastically tasty and i will be searching this out more often.

The cream on the top for me, was the wine list. Very well put together and i love that they didn't just go with a sub-standard Pinot Grigio but have chosen really nice old world wines and some more off-the-beaten track ones too. We went with a Malbec, luuurvly.

All in all i am very impressed they managed to turn this greasy spoon caff into this chic little neighbourhood meat house. Very well done, thanks for a lovely meal, we will be back.
