Damn these parents and them wanting to take their broods out!<br /><br />Chris - Definitely worth it. <br /><br />Melanie - I tried the Sunday roast a week later. The pork belly was awesome, the beef also good. <br /><br />GC - The chicken was so delicious. I have endeavoured not to leave my card there, but alas - it happened again a mere week later. <br /><br />Emmanuel - The Cambria looks quite posh, loving the furniture. <br /><br />The Pub Diaries - I reckon kids would make excellent drink-fetchers. As long as they kept quiet. <br /><br />Laura N - Pea puree is, indeed, an abomination. Especially when you're expecting mushy peas. <br /><br />Vishinsky - thanks! <br /><br />Grumbling Gourmet - I am also loving the South East love. It's very handy to Brockwell Park, you're right. <br /><br />The Grubworm - The amorous dog is a sweetie really ;-) The buttermilk chicken was a winner. I am going to try to recreate it. <br /><br />Cate - I think kids aren't allowed in any front bars, but I could well be mistaken.Hollow Legshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152329184111658897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148635935379992641.post-27126798400311702082010-05-21T17:59:42.490+01:002010-05-21T17:59:42.490+01:00Have tried their cider and chips only.
