Can anyone recommend a pub fairly local to East Dulwich, for lunch this Sunday?

Have only ever had one roast at the EDT.


Never again.


Miniscule portions - we had to ask for more veg. Really poor value for money considering their prices.


Haven't eaten at The Plough for years, but it has very poor reviews on here.


Just had lovely tender roast beef at the Old Nun's Head. It came with lovely crisp roasties, huge Yorkshire pudding, gravy, horseradish, kale, broccoli, carrots, parsnips, mashed swede, courgettes and cauliflower!


And you can choose to have it rare, medium or well done.


Came on a hot plate as well. And they do half portions at half price for "small people" (I assume that means children rather than vertically challenged adults).


Excellent ale as well, and very friendly service.


But now I'm so full I can hardly walk :)

    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?  
    • I used to buy a brand of olive oil called 'Il Casolare'. It was unfiltered, often on offer in Sainsbury's and came in a really nice bottle with a stopper. When it was finished, I'd soak the label off, fill it with Morrison's own-brand vermouth and use it for cooking as it lasts longer than keeping wine open. One night there was very little else left to drink, so we got into it - I told people it was a difficult to find artisanal brand I'd brought back from Barcelona and that it should be pronounced 'Vermut'. People loved it. I gave away a couple of bottles as Christmas presents the next year.
