Customer Reviews
Omg this is the best
This is my favourite podcasts the hosts are super funny and charismatic all the guests are funny and happy to do the podcast It’s the greatest my favourite episode is Judi Love 😝😝😝😝🫠🫠
Literally my favourite podcast
I listen to a lot of podcasts, but I always skip the queue when there’s new Off Menu.
It’s PURE JOY AND ENTERTAINMENT. Even when I don’t know the guest I become so invested in their food choices and history. James and Ed are hilarious and perfect co-hosts.
I will never get sick of this show. It’s good for re-listening too and makes me laugh out loud. I’ve been to some of their recommendations and they (mostly) stand. Kimchi Cult (Glasgow) was fabulous.
Literally the best. Can’t praise it enough.
Always funny and often thoughtful
Have listened to almost all of the episodes. These two bounce off each other beautifully. Asma Khan episode is a stand out for her incisive intelligence, thoughtful conversation and fascinating back story. (The very strange Dan Ackroyd one was a stand out for a whole other reason - it must be very hard to hijack these two accomplished performers but he mowed over them both!)
I have howled with laughter at a lot of the episodes (Greg Davies esp.) - a great track record of really delivering great content throughout their series. This is one of the podcasts that really brightens my day.
