Porter was the first beer to be mass-produced, leading to the rapid expansion of many London breweries. Benjamin Truman invested heavily to increase brewing capacity, and by 1760 Truman’s was the third largest brewer of porter in London.

In addition to being offered in its homeland, the tradition of a sunday roast lunch or dinner has been a major influence on food cultures in the english-speaking world, particularly in australia, canada, south africa, the united states, and new zealand. A south african sunday roast normally comprises roast pork, beef, lamb or chicken, roast potatoes or mashed potatoes, yorkshire pudding, and various vegetables like cauliflower-broccoli cheese, creamed spinach, green beans, carrots, peas, beetroot, and sweet potato. It is also fairly common to serve rice and gravy in south africa along or instead of yorkshire pudding. There are two historical points on the origins of the modern sunday roast. In the late 1700s, during the industrial revolution in the united kingdom, families would place a cut of meat into the oven as they got ready for church. They would then add in vegetables such as potatoes, turnips and parsnips before going to church on a sunday morning. When they returned from the church, the dinner was all but ready. The juices from the meat and vegetables were used to make a stock or gravy to pour on top of the dinner. The second opinion holds that the sunday roast dates back to medieval times, when the village serfs served the squire for six days a week. Then, on the sunday, after the morning church service, serfs would assemble in a field and practise their battle techniques and were rewarded with a feast of oxen roasted on a spit.

Just like the old pubs used to gather local communities to solve problems together, modern pubs also play an important role in british culture as a socializing tool. This is where the locals meet their friends and simply unwind. In the pub everyone is equal. In british pub culture, it is perfectly normal for strangers to talk to each other.

One list of accounts from vindolanda mentions atrectus the brewer (atrectus cervesarius), the first named brewer in british history, as well as the first known professional brewer in britain. The accounts also show purchases of bracis or braces, that is, emmer wheat (or malt), doubtless for brewing. Quite possibly the garrison bought the malt, and hired a local brewer to make beer from it for the troops. Brewing, both domestic and retail, must have been widespread: remains indicating the existence. When wheat flour began to come into common use for making cakes and puddings. The potatoes can be cooked around the meat itself, absorbing the juices and fat directly. However, many cooks prefer to cook the potatoes and the Yorkshire Pudding in a hotter oven than that used for the joint and so remove the meat beforehand to rest and “settle” in a warm place. Other vegetable dishes served with roast dinner can include mashed swede or turnips, roast parsnips, boiled or steamed cabbage, broccoli, green beans, and boiled carrots and peas. It is also not uncommon for leftover composite vegetable dishes—such as cauliflower cheese and stewed red cabbage to be served alongside the more usual assortment of cooked seasonal vegetables.

Brewing came to Brick Lane before 1680, with water drawn from deep wells. One brewer was Joseph Truman, first recorded in 1683.
