Dessons, Canterbury
After reviewing Abode Hotel previously, we had high hopes for Sunday lunch at Deesons in Canterbury. The bread was enjoyable, as was most of the main course. Due to some mix-ups with dietary requirements, they scored lower than they should have… visit for a great lunch, as long as you do not have any food related allergies.

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.

We have been meaning to review Sunday lunch at The Swan in West Malling for a while now and we finally had a chance just before Christmas. Parking was difficult, they do not have their own car park, but we managed it. The food was excellent, the service superb and we really enjoyed our time. A Top Rated Award for The Swan in West Malling.

Having been recommended Lujon in Keston previously, I recently found out they had been refurbished and renamed “Herberts”. The service here was excellent, from being met at the front door to having a dessert especially made for our toddler, off menu (a wonderful Fig and mango fruit salad!). The main courses were large, with a lot of sides (including cauliflower cheese). Also, it was quite reasonably priced, being 2 courses for £19.95, or 3 for £22.95. All in all, one of the Best Sunday Roasts we’ve had in Bromley and well worth visiting!

We were invited to visit Charlotte’s Bistro in Chiswick, West London – they knew we were coming, hence I haven’t given a score. A delicious Sunday lunch, with very tender roast beef, I really enjoyed the cauliflower cheese! The service was impeccable – definitely worth visiting if you have a celebration.

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!

We visited the Cow and Pig in Bromley one Sunday lunch time as an impromptu review – and I am very glad we did! The food was good as was the service. I especially enjoyed the roast beef and the (extra) cauliflower cheese. A good venue to take children along as well – great for family celebrations or an intimate dinner for two.
Read More...The Bricklayers Arms, Bromley
We were looking for somewhere we hadn’t reviewed before in Bromley (we’re running out of places) – I had been suggested The Bricklayers Arms previously so booked for one Sunday for lunch with friends. The staff were friendly and welcoming, but this is first and foremost a pub. Great selection of beers, I thoroughly recommend visiting if you are local and after a quiet drink rather than the Sunday lunch.
