I have visited a number of times for beers over the years, so I was looking forward to reviewing the Sunday lunch at The Phoenix in Denmark Hill, London. The venue is part of Denmark Hill rail station, and they carry a train theme through the pub (with a large clock hanging from the ceiling). They have a great selection of craft beers available, as well as decent priced wine. The Sunday lunch was reasonably priced between £11.75 for Roast Chicken to £13.00 for Roast Beef. The roast was ok, I wasn’t keen on the vegetables, but the desserts were superb. they scored a respectable 3.5 out of 5.

We decided to try out the Sunday lunch at The Bunk Inn, Curridge when visiting our friend who lives near Newbury. Our table was nicely positioned in the restaurant. We were well looked after throughout the meal, and the food was superb. My roast beef was very nicely presented, and tasted excellent. The roast potatoes were good, as were the vegetables. Mik and I had dessert – also excellent. A Top Rated Sunday lunch at The Bunk Inn, suitable to everyone!

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.

We were visiting Hythe in Kent, so obviously I searched for a venue to review for Sunday lunch. An old pub situated on the High Street, The White Hart was a bit too dark for a bright Sunny day. The service was poor initially, but did improve through the meal. The Sunday roast was quite good, with a nice selection of vegetables (including cauliflower cheese!). Overall, Sunday lunch at The White Hart in Hythe scores 3/5.

I was looking for a Sunday lunch in Dulwich, and decided that The Rosendale, with it’s emphasis of being a family friendly venue. This made it perfect for us with our son, JW (aka William), so a table was booked for 12pm the following day. Arriving early, our table was at the back of the restaurant, next to the garden door. The food here was delicious, our roasts were excellently cooked, especially the roast potatoes. The desserts were also excellent. So, definitely a top rated venue in West Dulwich!
