To get your fill of gloriously crispy roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings and rich gravy, check out our tried and tested guide to the top roasts in London, taking you to Richmond, Clapham and beyond.

The Top Sunday Lunches In London

The Jugged Hare

Address: 49 Chiswell St, London EC1Y 4SB

Price: £32 per roast

From the award-winning menus to the taxidermy-filled interiors, The Jugged Hare is a trendy Barbican-based gastropub that's just a little obsessed with game. The chefs celebrate seasonal British produce, pairing their fine cuts of meat with foraged ingredients. 

If you manage to bag a table on a Sunday (lucky you), you'll get to choose between beef, pork belly, leg of lamb or rotisserie chicken (£32 each for their London Sunday roasts), all served with duck fat roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings and vegetables.

The Libertine

Address: The Royal Exchange, Cornhill, EC3V 3L

Price: £23 - £26 (£90 for their Chateaubriand to share)

After your office stint is done, there aren't many reasons to head into the City on the weekends (the office crowd is what keeps this place alive), but The Libertine is more than worth the venture.

It's inside a 465-year-old bank vault and their Sunday roast is worth every penny. It comes with tender slices of pink beef, crisp roasties and a lip-smacking gravy. Cauliflower cheese and the pigs in blankets are a must-order but arrive hungry - they don't do doggy bags.

While surrounded by traditional leather seating, vintage artwork, mismatched light fixtures and taxidermy mounts making eye contact with you across the bar, delve into pork, chicken, sirloin of beef or a mushroom and cashew Wellington.

But it doesn't stop there, oh no; while you chow down, you can enjoy the smooth sounds of funk, disco and soul spun by a live DJ, as well as a potent bloody mary or two.

From 12pm 'til 7.15pm on Sundays, the centrepiece open-plan kitchen slings out superior roasts, such as a whole chicken to share, Welsh lamb rump, plus a beetroot, smoked tofu and mushroom Wellington. For dessert? It has to be the date pudding with butterscotch and clotted ice cream for us.

What one of our users had to say about Jones & Sons: "Food first class as always and service faultless. The best Sunday roast around. Yorkies to die for and the meat is cooked to perfection."
