We were holidaying in Suffolk and were able to meet some family for Sunday lunch. The Swan at Lavenham had been on my list for a while now, so it was the perfect opportunity to visit it, and we were not disappointed. The service was excellent, as was the venue (with a pianist!) and the food. Definitely worth visiting The Swan at Lavenham!

I had heard good things about The Bull Hotel in Gerrards Cross. I booked that morning for the three of us to have a Sunday lunch carvery.

An excellent Sunday lunch for families with young children.

Roast potatoes could have been nicer, but a well deserved 4.5/5… Have a read to find out more.
