The Herne


Spencer

Recommended Posts

Hi, The Herne Tavern has been taken over by the guys that run the Palmerston, and renamed The Herne, although they have not got round to redecorating the front yet....


Could we have it added to the vote please? It is my local pub now, great garden, if somewhat unusual, nice food and cheaper than the Palmerston... Very good for kids if you have them :)

Yes I can highly recommend the food. We ate there a week or two back and had lovely two course meal for less than ?20pp. Great value and very high quality food.


It is certainly a child-friendly pub, which is great if you have kids, but makes it something of a no-go zone for the rest of us on Sunday afternoons ;)

The Herne has now been added to the vote, I was going to say no as it's not in SE22 but I checked, and it is, so it's now in the running (well, there's some catching up to do...)


As I've mentioned on the poll page there's been some cheatin' afoot, so only registered users can now vote. It's a shame but someone who works at NatWest plumped up the Vale's vote. There was also someone registering using various fake email addresses so we've had to introduce increased security to the registration process i.e. when you register you receive an email which has a link in it, you click the link and bingo, you are one cool registered cat.

We went to the Herne on Saturday. Great food, friendly staff and best of all, no smoking at all - not so good for my boyf as he'd just unwittingly lit up - but nice waitress explained they're getting used to next summer's non-smoking policy. Definitely a plus point I'd say.

I agree Polly. As a militant ex-smoker (the worst type), I am a big fan of smoke free bars.


The Herne is better every time we visit: busier, more beers on, better atmosphere. If you're going for dinner on the weekend, you will need to book. We failed to do so, and ended up eating in the bar.. but since noone was smoking, it was great! ha ha ha

We tried to book a table for four at the Herne yesterday lunchtime (called about 11 o'clock), but they were booked until 3. Note to self: get up slightly earlier on a Sunday to book lunch or perhaps even get yourself together to do it the day before. Saturday.

    • If I buy a soap dispenser and want it to produce foam, do I need to add water? What is the ratio of water to hand soap? 
    • That's a good idea smiley blue , if you or anyone else comes across petitions to end these despicable acts of cruelty to defenceless animals please put on here or start a new thread if you please so we can sign the petition and add our objections to this , I would also like to thank all of you the people for reading these messages and adding your voices to this cruelty,  maybe we can end it 
    • Malumbu, by that measure are police efforts to cut down on anti-social driving by issuing tickets and fines a token effort as well? Surely punitive measures for cyclists breaking the rules will encourage them not to break the rules again? A bit like when you got stopped and taken into the cab of an HGV. The police are currently using that tactic to show those who break the rules cycling that it might lead them to being hit by a lorry due to the driver's having limited vision - the cycling equivalent of a speed awareness course for drivers.    When they stopped you was it because you had broken a rule or was it just more of an education programme and they asked you to take a look and did it change your cycling behaviour in any way? As I said previously there are those who break the rules on cycling out of ignorance (and those out of arrogance) and I am sure they are using HGVs to educate those in the ignorance category and then hitting those in the arrogance category with the PCNs.    
    • Good that PETA is on it but can we add our voices to the fight against this horrible practice? I’m still shocked! A petition maybe? Happy to raise to the RSPCA but don’t want to duplicate efforts. I’ve signed campaigns from RSPCA before which sends it directly to your councillor
