Whether it's desperately needed after a big night, perfect for the family or a must for a catch up with pals, the Sunday roast brings us together in all kinds of ways, and these Peckham suggestions are no exception to those rules. From teetering in to Dulwich postcode to pub plates stacked high with tatties, we've got everything from the meaty to the meat-free in south London.

No two days for food are the same at The Old Nun's Head with a regularly rotating menu, but it's the Sunday lunch where Fit Roasts shine. Head down from 12-6 for vegan haggis, kids roasts, quarter chickens and buffalo wings on the side, of course.
A Camberwell boozer that offers it up in the pretty department, Grove House Tavern isn't just a must for a quick drink, make a visit on a Sunday to stuff yourself silly with roast rolled shoulder of lamb, confit butternut squash wellington and all the trimmings.
A party pub in Peckham where brunches, sport screenings and neon life drawing come as standard, The Prince Of Peckham are still making Sundays delicious with a Sunday menu of jerk specials, including jerk lamb, jerk pork belly and curry goat shank.
Only a minute away from Peckham Rye station, The Montpelier is a great shout if you're in need of Sunday grub close to the station. When you're not admiring their seafood selection, Angus beef, mushroom haggis and black pork belly are doing the weekend roast rounds.
Proud of their produce (working with UK farmers and award-winning Flock & Herd Butchery) The White Horse have Sunday roasts you can count on. For a treat from midday to 6pm, head on down for vegan, vegetarian and meaty roasts aplenty.
A traditional pub found between New Cross and Peckham, Earl of Derby is a stunning Victorian boozer that's been fully restored to its former glory in tasteful renovations, which still retain a traditional feel of panelled walls, open fires and a striking bar. Think roast chicken, crispy lamb belly, and wild mushroom and artichoke Wellington, all served with buttered greens, treacle and thyme-glazed carrots, roast potatoes and herb-crusted Yorkshire puddings. Food here is prepared by their kitchen, Gengelly's - run by chefs George Genn and Laurence Pengelly, formerly of Good as Gold in Brockley.
Clock House Tavern in Peckham is a gorgeous, bright and airy pub sporting dangling foliage, forest green interiors and warm, cosy, contemporary lighting.
You'll find it spread across two charming floors, with a brilliant Sunday menu that draws passersby in thanks to its epic roasts courtesy of Gengelly's. Look forward to devouring the likes of crispy lamb belly, vegetarian Wellingtons and more, followed by a cherry Bakewell topped with creme fraiche.
Known for their award winning Sunday lunches, The Camberwell Arms without a doubt a crowd favourite when it comes to a roast in Peckham. A chic but classic pub, Sunday will see you dining on half a spit roast chicken, roast pork belly, overnight beef and braised lamb, perfect for the meat eaters among you.
