Try the Britannia for this week's Sunday pub dinner. We're a bit late in thinking of it. Sunday pub meals are UK style, meaning that they're typically mid-afternoon - think of the Christmas meal. Last week was the First and Last Pub, which fortunately runs later because we had the Formula 1 final to watch first. Today we're not really thinking and arrive five minutes before the 5 PM finish time. Pub almost empty because we've caught them between dinner and the evening's entertaining and drinks. Couldn't have been nicer, though. Yes, they can still get us a meal.,choice of roast beef, pork or chicken - or maybe a little of each. Comes with Yorkshire pudding, roast and mashed potatoes, four veg and gravy. In anticipation of which we have prudently not eaten since breakfast. Lovely meal and nice familial feelnto the place.
