We were visiting Camber Sands for a week on holiday, I booked Sunday lunch at The Gallivant. It is a hotel on the main road from Rye, and had a large car park outside for easy parking. The restaurant is a relaxing but smart venue, with excellent food – especially the roast beef and sundae dessert. It is higher priced than most places, but we felt it was worth the extra. Suitable for family celebrations, The Gallivant is Top Rated!

The Phoenix, Denmark Hill
I have visited a number of times for beers over the years, so I was looking forward to reviewing the Sunday lunch at The Phoenix in Denmark Hill, London. The venue is part of Denmark Hill rail station, and they carry a train theme through the pub (with a large clock hanging from the ceiling). They have a great selection of craft beers available, as well as decent priced wine. The Sunday lunch was reasonably priced between £11.75 for Roast Chicken to £13.00 for Roast Beef. The roast was ok, I wasn’t keen on the vegetables, but the desserts were superb. they scored a respectable 3.5 out of 5.

We were looking for a Sunday lunch near the beach and Whitstable came to mind. After a bit of a search, I found The Pearson Arms by Richard Phillips. The food here was excellent, we thoroughly enjoyed all courses (including the free bread). My roast beef was really good, as were the roast potatoes. Claire enjoyed the lemon posset dessert, it was very sharp and sweet at the same time. A top rated Sunday lunch!

With a pilgrimage to IKEA on the cards, I had to book a Sunday lunch in Croydon to soften the blow – and found Alberts Table. A smart restaurant, with great food. It was let down a bit by the slow service during the meal, so I recommend going but only with teenage or older children, or as a couple.

We were staying in Camber so I took the opportunity to book a lunch at The Ship Inn in Rye, East Sussex. Be aware that parking is difficult in Rye. Overall, we had a good Sunday lunch with excellent service. The roast potatoes were perfect, as were the heritage carrots, cabbage and yorkshire pudding. The desserts were also very enjoyable. A venue worth visiting if you are in the area.
