Reviews of pubs and restaurants suitable for a birthday celebration on Best Sunday Roast

The Trafalgar Tavern, Greenwich

January 20, 2019 By John

I found The Trafalgar Tavern in Greenwich, London online, and decided to book for Sunday lunch the following day. Parking was very difficult, and expensive (£12 for 4 hours), but I have to say, it was well worth it. The venue was situated right on the River Thames, and had an excellent view. The bread we ordered to nibble on whilst waiting was superb, as was the main courses of roast pork belly and roast beef. My lime cheesecake was also something notable.

A superb, Top Rated Sunday lunch at The Trafalgar Tavern in Greenwich, best suited for a special or celebratory occasion.

The Hinds Head, Bray

January 19, 2019 By John

The Hinds Head in Bray, being a Michelin starred pub, has been on my radar for a while. We had the opportunity to visit just after Christmas, and I am very pleased we did! The service was excellent, as was the food – fois gras was delicious and beautifully presented, the roast beef was wonderful with excellent roast potatoes. We felt it was a venue to take older children to rather than a toddler – this was mostly down to having no background noise to cover up the usual sounds youngsters make. Overall though, a great place and The Hinds Head in Bray scores 4.5 out of 5!

The Bel & Dragon, Kingsclere

Sunday lunch at The Bel & Dragon in Kingsclere, Newbury was probably one of our best ones yet. The food was delicious, the service excellent, and so good with children – a unique venue, with chalk for the children to draw on the tables! A perfect Sunday lunch for family celebrations or anyone with a very large appetite!

The Ship Inn, Rye

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.

The Dirty Habit, Hollingbourne

January 11, 2019 By John

After looking for a Sunday lunch near Maidstone, I settled on The Dirty Habit in Hollingborne, a sister pub of The Vineyard and The Farmhouse. The 11 Century pub certainly had character, and I was pleased with the service initially, The roast potatoes were good, as were the vegetables. My Sticky Toffee Pudding was very sweet (a good thing), and certainly ensured I received the sugar hit I wanted. Unfortunately though, it took over 20 minutes just to receive the bill, so not one to go to if you are in a rush.
