Poulet is a rotisserie restaurant and bar at 37 Maltby Street in Bermondsey. Set beneath a large railway arch, its colourful, atmospheric space provides a distinctive backdrop for a casual dinner, weekend lunch, celebration or private event.
British free range rotisserie chicken is the central order, available in portions designed for one diner or for sharing. Crisp skin, tender meat and roasting juices keep the preparation deliberately direct, allowing the quality of the chicken and careful cooking to lead.
Chips, sweet potato fries and rosemary and garlic potatoes add familiar accompaniments, while salads, sandwiches and a vegetarian choice extend the concise menu. The limited focus gives the kitchen a clear identity rather than attempting to cover too many unrelated styles.
Cocktails, natural and organic wines, beer and cider make Poulet as much a social bar as a chicken restaurant. The combination of straightforward food, lively music and an unusual arch setting suits diners looking for an energetic Maltby Street meal without unnecessary formality.
