As The George in Egerton was close by to my father’s house, it made sense to pop along for a Sunday lunch with the family. A local pub with a good Sunday lunch including a mixed platter – they even offered a vegetarian roast! A great place to go for a hungry family.
Read More...The Vineyard, Lamberhurst
We had visited The Farmhouse in West Malling and received a great experience, so I had to take the opportunity to review their sister pub in Lamberhurst, The Vineyard. The location was superb, set in wonderful Kentish countryside. The garden was spacious, as was the venue inside. Our Sunday lunch was really nice, with a lot of meat, good flavouring with the roast potatoes and nice vegetables. Our desserts were enjoyable, the Coconut Crème Brulée was very well presented. Service here was excellent, and ensured we had a great experience. An excellent Sunday roast at The Vineyard in Lamberhurst, Kent.

It was just on an off chance that we visited The Beacon in Royal Tunbridge Wells – and I am so glad we did! The views were amazing, the food was superb (my lamb was delicious, as were the roast potatoes). The service was equally as good. This was an impeccable Sunday lunch and well deserves the Top Rated award! Suitable for everyone, from family celebrations through to couples having a romantic meal.
Read More...The Oxford, Whitstable
With another visit to Whitstable, we booked The Oxford. I reserved a table for 3 the following Sunday and we were all set. The food was a mixed bag – my beef was delicious with a lot of seasoning but unfortunately the fat on the pork belly wasn’t melted. The sticky toffee pudding was nice, and JW enjoyed (his rather expensive) child’s roast. Overall, worth visiting if you are in the area although as no changing area it isn’t really suitable for toddlers or babies.
Read More...Bridge House, Penge
I booked the Bridge House in Penge, Lewisham on one Sunday – I had actually been there once before and enjoyed the food. I explained the dietary requirements for JW (gluten, wheat and dairy free) and was told all would be ok with the roast, apart from the Yorkshire. In fact, this was incorrect – JW ended up having roast beef and chips, for the same money as a kids roast! Overall, the food was ok, but this mishap really spoilt our experience. Go if you live in the area and do not have any dietary requirements.
