Don’t let the outside of The Rose and Crown in Farnborough put you off, the venue inside was kept in good repair and nicely decorated. The facilities for children was excellent with clean changing areas and a large activity area in the garden. The huge Sunday lunch was good, especially the roast potatoes. A place to visit for families and people with large appetites!

I was looking for a Sunday lunch in Greenwich, London and found Tudor Barn. It’s located in Eltham, which is just a short drive away from home. The venue is situated within a lovely green area, and as the name suggests, is a Tudor Barn!
Inside the restaurant is impressive. Nicely laid out tables, a large wood burning stove at the end. The service was excellent, as was the food. Claire had a nice roast lamb, I had a fantastic “duo”, which consisted of lamb and beef. The Yorkshire pudding was amazing, and the roast potatoes were very good. All in all, a top rated Sunday lunch at Tudor Barn, Eltham in Greenwich.

We were looking for one last Sunday lunch in Kent for 2012 and settled on a roast at Chapter One, Farnborough in Bromley. Booking was easy through their website. The venue itself was nicely decorated and the chairs were very comfy. Claire had 3 courses, being the deep fried fish cake, the roast sirloin of beef and the pecan financier. I chose the chicken and ham terrine, roast beef and chocolate delice. The whole meal was excellent, each course complimented the last. The service here was efficient and polite. Overall, an excellent Sunday lunch at Chapter One in Farnborough, Bromley, Kent.
Read More...The Horns, Otford
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).
Read More...The White Hart, Brasted
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.
