Reviews of pubs and restaurants suitable for Christmas on Best Sunday Roast

The Bo Peep, Chelsfield

December 14, 2012 By John

We were recommended to visit Bo Peep in Chelsfield, Bromley in Kent. I gave them a call and was able to book a table to the following day.

This was a 14 century country-inn – it was quite cold outside which unfortunately meant it was also cold inside. There was a large fire, but this was in the main part of the restaurant, whereas we were in the annex. Thankfully though, they put the heating on for us!

Our starters were good. Our main courses were excellent – the roast lamb was probably some of the best I have ever had out, the roast potatoes were crunchy, the selection of vegetables were also very good. The service here was “ok”, could have been quite a bit better, although they were very busy. Overall, a 4 out of 5 review for The Bo Peep in Chelsfield, Bromley.

The Horns, Otford

November 18, 2012 By John

After a bit of exploring online, I decided to give The Horns in Otford, Sevenoaks a shot and we weren’t disappointed.

The service here was top-notch, we really felt they cared that we enjoyed our time here. The wood burning stove gave the venue a nice, warm, atmosphere.

The food quality was excellent, the quantity was enough to keep me satisfied – I did still have a sticky toffee pudding for dessert (which was excellent). The roast lamb was very tender, the roast potatoes were good (although would have preferred a bit crunchier) and the vegetables were nice. The Yorkshire pudding was fantastic, light and airy whilst still being crunchy.

Overall, The Horns received a very well deserved 5 plate score (Top Rated).

The White Hart, Brasted

September 30, 2012 By John

I have been wanting to visit The White Hart in Brastead, part of Sevenoaks, Kent for a while now. After having lunch on a Saturday at their sister pub, The George in Hayes, we decided to visit them.

The venue itself was a perfect, contemporary country inn, with wooden beams, log burning fires and rustic carpet. The service was good, one or two mistakes but mostly rectified without an issue. The Sunday roast itself was excellent with great meat (I had lamb, Claire had chicken), interesting vegetable medley, good roast potatoes and nice gravy. A good selection of desserts, I had an upside-down sundae.

Overall, an excellent venue for a celebratory Sunday lunch.

The Moody Cow, Upton Bishop

August 14, 2012 By John

Sunday lunch The Moody Cow pub and restaurant in Upton Bishop was wonderful. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals, I especially liked the pork duo, being served with both the pork belly as well as a loin. The roast potatoes were the star of the show, being really crunchy.

The venue was amazing, with a neo-gothic feature wall, large comfortable looking sofas and a wood-burning stove. This was a very special venue with an excellent Sunday lunch. A Best Sunday lunch at The Moody Cow in Herefordshire and well worth a visit.

The Swan at The Globe, London

August 11, 2012 By John

I was looking for another Sunday lunch in London and decided to give The Swan at The Globe a go.

I am very pleased we did. Our food was excellent, it was between £14 – £16 for a main course, choices such as Pork Belly, Roast Beef and Roast Chicken. The meat quality was good, the vegetable selection included shredded cabbage, chantry carrots and cauliflower cheese. The Yorkshire pudding also nice. Service was great, being on hand whenever we needed them without being intrusive.

Suitable for families, couples, romantic meals or Sunday lunch with friends. Top Rated Sunday lunch for The Swan at The Globe.
