We were looking for a Sunday lunch in East London, specifically Bethnal Green. Resident at Paradise Row seemed to fit the bill. The staff were friendly and helpful, and they served gluten free Yorkshire puddings! Overall though, not one for young families – more suited to 20-30 somethings without kids.

Chiswell Street Dining Rooms in Islington, London is the sister pub to The Jugged Hare, almost right next door! (you can read the Sunday lunch review of The Jugged Hare here). We had a great time here, the Sunday lunch was superb. The meat was cooked properly, and a lot was provided. I loved the small dishes the various side dishes came in. The venue decor was nice and fresh and the service excellent!
A wholeheartedly Top Rated Sunday lunch in Islington.

After visiting The Jugged Hare and Chiswell Street Dining Rooms) I had the opportunity of booking The Gun, a sister pub. They were very welcoming to us with John William (a 10 month old baby). The venue itself was impressive – a smart restaurant area at the front with a relaxing bar area out the back (including a wonderful terrace area). The food here was very special – well presented and excellent tasting. The service was also superb, so all in all, a well deserved Top Rated Award for Sunday lunch at The Gun.

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.

We reviewed Sunday lunch at Chiswell Street Dining Rooms, a sister venue of The Jugged Hare, a couple of months ago with great success. Claire and I were invited along to the launch party of The Jugged Hare, so we knew the layout of the venue and what to expect decor-wise. We also had the chance to sample the food via canapes. Something we didn’t get to try, and I really wanted to, was their Sunday lunches.
So, a couple of weeks after the launch party, I arranged Sunday lunch at The Jugged Hare for my birthday meal. This did mean driving to Islington for a Sunday roast, but it was definitely worth it!
