    Best roast I had in London - Galvin La Chapelle - wasn't 'that' expensive for the quality of food on offer.
    Or locally - The Castle at Eynsford - haven't been post-covid though.
    If you want to go a little further afield, The Kentish Hare in Tonbridge Wells or The Corner House at Canterbury is well worth the drive.

    My go to boozer for a Sunday Roast is the Chaser Inn in Shipbourne nr. Tonbridge. If you try it … Go large!

    Remember the landlady used to have some really nice bar maids in there, I think they studied drama somewhere, but there was one called Skye, I was only about 20 odd at the time and really liked her. After she left the pub (siting harassment or something. God knows who by??), she went on to do quite well and I see her on the TV a couple of times over the years
  • The Guildford Arms - Greenwich

    It's still decent. The only unpalatable thing they offer is the Palace scarf behind the jump.

    The best person to ask is Craig MacGillivray, he loves a roast dinner. Every other post on his Instagram is him tucking into one.

    Sophie's Choice in Sidcup do a good un mate. The way this thread is going you could have one for every week of the year.

    I went to The Pier in Upnor over the weekend. XXL roast beef and all the trimmings was £13.50. Bargain and the food was very nice. You need to book though.

    Simpsons on The Strand…..yes expensive but for an occasional OTT treat you really can’t beat it.
    Part of The Savoy of course.

    The Knowle Country House Higham Rochester.
    This one takes some beating, nice setting too.
    You might find yourself sitting in the car for half an hour after leaving to fully recover. Particularly if you have sampled the quite extraordinary dessert trolley!
    They only do Sunday Lunch during the winter season as they are wedding event specialists during the summer.
    I have found you need to book a couple of weeks in advance.
    A little pricey but not OTT by any means.

    Toscana - the wife and I are going there on Sunday
  • Blacklock Chops - couple of locations in town. Awesome. Enderby House pub on the river near the O2 is actually OK for a Youngs pub.

    Just looked it up on the interweb - the menu has loads of options, which puts me off a bit, as I wonder how on earth can they cook all these different meals to a decent standard - I prefer a small menu, as generally I have found the food to be very well done

    But you have experience of this Italian - am I wrong in this case ?
