The arrival of Mauby in Brockley is the latest venture for a couple who first made a name for themselves with their amazing jerk chicken and barbecue. The new bar is the latest opening from Daniel and Heleena who used to run the very popular Jerk Off BBQ in Creekside in Deptford.
That venture closed when the area was redeveloped so, following successful crowdfunding, they're now in a proper permanent spot here in Brockley. At Mauby they're serving up a mixture of cocktails, drinks and bar snacks with a plan to bring in a full food menu soon. On the launch menu, bar snacks include mixed tomato salad with sardines and crackers, fried plantain and a pickle plate. But we're told they'll be serving up everything from fresh fried seafood, stewed beans and tasty vegetable plates to lesser-known homestyle West Indian dishes and great desserts. There will be the odd BBQ classic on there too.
Talking to Hot Dinners the pair said they were hoping to bring "a bit of Soho energy to Brockley". The cocktail options include a signature Mauby serve made with Bajan Cockspurs rum, Mauby syrup and lemon while the drinks list will feature natural wines and craft beers along with no-alcohol versions of all the cocktails.
As for the space itself, there's a mix of table and counter seating and they'll be keeping room for walk-ins.
