Paradise by Way of Kensal Green, Brent
Paradise by Way of Kensal Green in Brent was somewhere we were really looking forward to having a Sunday lunch. The venue was very eclectic in decoration, with bird cages and books around the place. The roast lamb and roast beef were excellent but unfortunately the chicken was a bit of a let down.
Overall, come here for a special dinner during the week, or even on a Saturday, but we felt the Sunday lunch wasn’t good value.

We were visiting my Dad for Father’s Day and decided to try the Sunday lunch at The Rose and Crown in Pluckley, Kent (near Ashford). I am very glad we did! The food was delicious, the beef cooked to my (requested) liking, super roast potatoes and gravy. The outdoor space meant our child could run outside and burn off some energy. A Top Rated Sunday lunch.

We were visiting St Margaret’s Bay in Dover for a family event and decided to stay over for the weekend. I never miss an opportunity to review a new venue, so with this in mind I found The White Cliffs in St Margaret’s at Cliff. Booking was easy, and we arrived to be shown to our seats in a light, airy room. The Sunday lunch here was excellent, with a special mention to the cauliflower cheese. Our roast beef was cooked well, and the rest of the vegetables were enjoyable. My chocolate brownie dessert was the star though, with a wonderful marzipan ice cream.
Top Marks for Sunday lunch at The White Cliffs in Dover, Kent!

When looking for a place to meet friends, I found out about the Sunday lunch at The Anchor in Ripley, Woking. A good sized car park helped with arriving in a happy frame of mind. The service here was excellent, we were greeted at the door and then looked after well during the meal. The food itself was excellent – contemporary twists on a traditional meal. We felt very welcome and certainly a Top Rated Sunday lunch!
Read More...Botley Hill Farmhouse, Warlingham
We were looking for a Sunday lunch within the M25 and, after some research, found Botley Hill Farmhouse in Warlingham, Surrey. It was set in beautiful rolling hills, quite amazing. The feel inside was contemporary farmhouse, being bright and fresh. The Sunday lunch was quite good, I enjoyed the beef and roast potatoes. There was a problem with JW’s dessert which spoilt the experience. Even with this though, it would still be worth visiting if you are in the area.

I was looking for a Sunday lunch in Dulwich, and decided that The Rosendale, with it’s emphasis of being a family friendly venue. This made it perfect for us with our son, JW (aka William), so a table was booked for 12pm the following day. Arriving early, our table was at the back of the restaurant, next to the garden door. The food here was delicious, our roasts were excellently cooked, especially the roast potatoes. The desserts were also excellent. So, definitely a top rated venue in West Dulwich!

We had eaten at The Oak a couple of time previously, but we didn’t manage to review the Sunday lunch. For Easter Sunday, 8 of us decided to visit for a roast. Our booking was just after they had received a table of 20, so the food was understandably slower than usual. The Sunday lunch was quite nice, unfortunately the desserts were a bit of a let down. Overall, a family friendly pub to go if you are local to the area.
Read More...The Ivy House, Tonbridge
I had high hopes with Sunday lunch at The Ivy House, but unfortunately we were let down. Parking was good, and the location great – right on the high street. It seemed that they were understaffed though as service was slow, and the pork belly wasn’t very nice. Also, they didn’t have a high chair so JW was balanced on cushions (and almost had a nasty fall). If you live in the area, give a go otherwise there are better places to visit.
