A Sunday lunch review of The Bell Inn in Godstone, Surrey. A sister pub in fact to The Plough in Eynsford, amongst others, so we had high hopes of the food and we were not disappointed. The starters were enjoyable, as was the Sunday roast. The potatoes were excellent, the Yorkshire pudding huge! A very enjoyable, family friendly pub and worthy of the Top Rated award.

The Windmill by Richard Phillips, Hollingbourne
We had visit another of Richard Phillips’s establishments, Pearson’s Arms in Whitstable. So, when I found out he has another in Hollingborne in Maidstone, we had to give it a shot. Sunday lunch here was superb, our roast very tasty (especially the potatoes). It was great that the kids roast was free, making the Sunday lunch really good value (3 courses for £19.95).
The Windmill is definitely one for families to visit for Sunday lunch. Top Rated!
Read More...The White Rock Inn, Underriver
We were looking for a country pub Sunday lunch near home and found The White Rock in Underriver which is near Sevenoaks, Kent. This was a great place for us to take our gluten and dairy free toddler for Sunday lunch. The whole meal was suitable, including yorkshire puddings, chocolate pudding and custard! An excellent place to go if you have food allergies.

As we were holidaying in Camber Sands, I just had to find somewhere to visit for Sunday lunch. After a bit of research, I decided on The Dunes Bar & Restaurant, which is situated just off the main beach. Nicely decorated inside, with a beach theme (including photo place mats). The staff were friendly enough, showing us to our table and also being helpful through the meal. Ours starters were a bit of a disappointment, but the Sunday lunch was actually quite nice – a huge serving and definitely great value for money. So, worth visiting if you are in the Camber Sands area.
Read More...The Crown & Castle, Orford in Woodbridge
We wanted to visit Ruth Watson’s Crown & Castle in Orford in Woodbridge, Suffolk for a while and had the opportunity to review. It was based almost opposite Orford Castle, with a beautiful white Tudor style frontage. The venue inside was just as nice. The service was good, we were looked after throughout the meal. We did feel quite awkward with JW though, not the place to bring a 7 month old baby! The food was mostly excellent, although the desserts were disappointing. It was a bit difficult to justify the pricing of this, at £28 for two courses it’s one of the most expensive we have reviewed.
Overall, a good Sunday lunch at The Crown and Castle in Orford, one to visit if you have some deeper pockets, and without a child!
