On the inside, this thoroughly British outpost of Beast & Cleaver on Ballard’s main drag appears to be a garden variety pub—but it's much more than that. Little Beast's butchery roots come through by way of a spicy lamb korma pie drenched in gravy that looks like melted coffee ice cream and tastes like Sunday night. Or a zippy currywurst sausage roll, perfect with a pimm’s cup. Or arguably the greatest pork chop of late, with a blowtorched-like char calmed by savory jus and grilled nectarines. Between the presence of scotched eggs, a soundtrack of sing-along rock classics, and a staff eager to dole out bonus gravy pours, Little Beast fits in effortlessly among the neighborhood’s lowkey special occasion scene. Especially if that occasion calls for meat.
