Claire and I adore Canterbury, and we had the opportunity to visit on Mother’s Day, choosing to have a special lunch at County Inn, Abode hotel. The service was excellent, as was the food – beautifully presented and cooked wonderfully. The beef was delicious and the roast potatoes were amazing. A Sunday lunch venue suitable for celebratory family events – Top Rated!

Our second visit at The Bulls Head Hotel in Chislehurst – not as good as the first, but only marginally so. The food was good, especially the portion sizes! It was great to have 4 roast potatoes, but we felt there were some issues with dietary requirements and service. Overall a very good 4.5 / 5.
Read More...The Bridge Hotel, Greenford
The Bridge Hotel in Greenford was a pub / hotel fairly close to home so we decided to book it for Sunday lunch with some friends.
We had the option of beef, chicken, pork or a trio. Claire and Abi chose roast chicken, Phil and I chose the trio. After an extremely long time to wait, our food was brought out. It wasn’t great, the beef and pork was very tough. the chicken was very good though. Dessert were a bit strange. The service was good but it was an average lunch.

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.

I had been recommended the Hotel du Vin in Tunbridge Wells for Sunday lunch, so I booked up when we were at a loose end. The venue was smart, with great service. On the most part, the meal was good value – £24.95 for a 3 course Sunday lunch and £9.95 for a child’s meal. The market table was immense, so much choice and definitely meant hungrier guests could get their moneys worth! The lunch was delicious, as was dessert. Overall, a Top Rated Sunday lunch for Hotel du Vin.
