    We had a lovely experience at the Hare and Billet. We had a lovely round table to accommodate our family, baby and dog. The roast was a bit cold, but they gave us a free dessert at the end to make up for it which was very nice. We would recommend to friends and family!

    The food was lovely service amazing, lovely pub. The only thing I would change would be to make the cherry Crumble more of an actual crumble but all the flavours were there, it was superb! Definitely will visit again.

    We usually go to our local pub in Kidbrooke for our Christmas meal, but having been to The Hare and Billet on several occasions for an excellent Sunday roast, we thought we would give it a go this year and we were not disappointed. We pre-ordered our food from their set menu along with a couple of glasses of champagne. We felt welcome upon arrival and the table was ready. The champagne came out very promptly followed by starters which were delicious. The mains and desserts were also served promptly and tasted great. The chips we had ordered were a bit odd but didn’t detract from the overall experience. I really appreciate the service, which is always confident and direct, the guys know how to do their jobs properly and are up for a chat. Would recommend and will return.

    Great food and service as usual - only knocked down a star because it was super hot in the restaurant to start with (heating too high - though eventually rectified) and the seabass dish could’ve done with a few extra spuds.

    Hi Victoria, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Sorry for the restaurant temperature, when we keep the radiators off, it gets quite cold, however when the radiators are on, it gets very hot, I am glad it was an easy fix. I will pass the comments regarding the Seabass to my chef. Wish you a wonderful Christmas and hope to see you soon again. Kind regards, Natalia

    We chose to sit in the bar to eat at lunch time. We had booked and they gave us a quiet corner seat which was ideal. We still had table service and didn’t need to order at the bar Staff were very efficient and friendly. Food was good we all enjoyed what we had ordered

    Recently went to the Hare & Billet for a lovely roast, was excited to see they offer a vegan wellington roast as an option online. However was disappointed upon learning that it’s no longer an option and had been taken off the menu when we were getting our orders taken. Luckily we had a fantastic server, Nathaniel who went above and beyond to offer options so that I could still enjoy the roast that I’d be looking forward too with a few tweaks here and there. Ended up having a lovely meal regardless! Thank you, Nathaniel & chefs at the Hare & Billet!
