Agree with the Crooked Well as the consistently best option. A year or two ago I'd have said the Palmerston was right up there, however I've found it to be "average" the past couple of times we've been. At the price charged I think it's reasonable to expect "fantastic".


The Old Nun's Head by Nunhead Green is also an excellent option as is Pedler.


We've tried The Lordship a couple of times (most recently about a week ago - couldn't get in to Old Nun's Head or Pedler). The service is nice there and we really wanted it to be great, but we were underwhelmed with the food for the price.


Keen to try the Perry Vale.

Yeh we had a roast at The Great Exhibition a week or so back.


Nothing like as good as it used to be, I thought. Wouldn't rush back.


The Old Nun's Head roasts are excellent, but it's very popular and you have to book a table if you want to be sure of getting one :(

I think the food at the Camberwell Arms is overrated and overpriced.. didn't rate their "roast" at all. Crooked Well is consistently good and big thumbs up for Pedler. I also have to give a shout out for the roast at The Sun in Camberwell - really good both times I've been. Proper potatoes, proper gravy!

So you expect people to photograph food & menus + prices, all ready for sharing on the forum and elsewhere


I'll try harder next time, obviously i'm missing a trick here


Specially when asked what I did over the weekend, yeah I can bore the tits right off them with my "Lunch Album/menu spreadsheet" collection all stored on my ipad/phone

this is a forum it's for members to share lots of things, if you think it will as you say "bore the tits right off them". have you never talked about when you go out and what a great meal you had and what good value it was ??.any way why are you posting on this thread on the forum if you think it's a bore?? and calling other members names like "Piloc" well it's says it all.
