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.

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.

I had been told that The George & Dragon in Speldhurst, Royal Tunbridge Wells serve a super Sunday lunch so when Mother’s Day came round, I made sure I booked in early and I was certainly pleased I did! An excellent example of a well made roast – delicious throughout and a great venue. Top Rated, suitable for family celebrations, romantic meals or somewhere to take a well behaved dog (in the pub area).

I had high hopes with Sunday lunch at The Ivy House, but unfortunately we were let down. Parking was good, and the location great – right on the high street. It seemed that they were understaffed though as service was slow, and the pork belly wasn’t very nice. Also, they didn’t have a high chair so JW was balanced on cushions (and almost had a nasty fall). If you live in the area, give a go otherwise there are better places to visit.

Having visited some of the other pubs in the Elite Group (including The Vineyard, a great Sunday lunch), I thought it was only right to book The Great House in Hawkhurst – and I was glad I did! The food was delicious, the service excellent and a great venue too. Definitely one worth travelling to visit – suitable for families and couples alike!
