We had visited The Shortlands Taverns to watch some rugby previously, when I saw they offered Sunday lunches I made sure we visited the following Sunday. Make sure you reserve a table, there were a lot of disappointed people would hadn’t. A very good place for families, with a menu for children, low salt Sunday lunches and clean baby changing facilities. Also, they are members of Brestfeeding Welcome Scheme, so mothers with young babies should also feel welcome here. Overall, the Sunday lunch was nice and worth a visit, if just to experience the local community pub.

As we were going to Old Street for a friend’s party, I decided to book Sunday lunch at Tramshed in Shoreditch for the three of us (Claire, me and our 20 month old son, JW). Parking was extremely difficult, almost as bad as Brighton, but I managed to find a free(!) space a few minutes walk away. Outside, the venue is very unimposing – a simple arch with an entrance either side. Inside was a vast warehouse, with a Damian Hirst installation! The food, with an interesting presentation of the Roast Chicken and free kid’s minute steak, was excellent. The service was good, and the bill was very reasonable indeed.
Certainly a Top Rated Award for Tramshed in Shoreditch, East London.

Having been recommended The Three Chimneys by a few people, I decided to book close to Claire’s birthday for Sunday lunch, and I am so glad that I did! The service was excellent, the very best we have had. The food was delicious and superb venue too. A great place for celebrations or romantic meals alike.

I had been told that The George & Dragon in Speldhurst, Royal Tunbridge Wells serve a super Sunday lunch so when Mother’s Day came round, I made sure I booked in early and I was certainly pleased I did! An excellent example of a well made roast – delicious throughout and a great venue. Top Rated, suitable for family celebrations, romantic meals or somewhere to take a well behaved dog (in the pub area).
Read More...Malmaison, Reading
After a good experience previously in Farringdon, I booked Malmaison in Reading for a Sunday lunch. The market table wasn’t as good as previous, and the 3 course meal took a long time to complete (over 3 hours) due to service being slow. The food was nice and it was kind of them to provide olive oil cooked roast potatoes which might explain the delays. Overall, a worth 4/5 score for Malmaison.
