Lovely, welcoming pub overlooking Blackheath, with a varied and very tempting menu. Good value for money; the portions are generous, and the food delicious. Meant to ask how often they change the menu, as there were several other choices I was sorry to have to take a pass on – would like to know how soon I’ll need to be back! Service was very friendly, and attentive without being intrusive - and they weren’t at all thrown by our arriving early. Warm and cosy - had the day itself been chillier I would have pushed for a window table, as it would be an ideal place to watch the weather blustering across the heath. Was a little disappointed to find that my favourite rum had sold out the previous night and was still on back order, but luckily the weather was still clement enough to make an elderflower gin with cucumber a welcome alternative. Several large tables for Saturday lunch meant that noise levels were indeed ‘energetic’ – a little noisy perhaps, but there are worse sounds than those of people enjoying themselves. The proximity to Blackheath Village is good for transport links, and a post-prandial stroll around the independent shops – a great destination pub in a great destination. We’ll definitely return.

Sadly our experience was not great. We had phone ahead as we had a dog with us and were told we could bring her but would have to sit in the bar area rather than the restaurant area at the back ( which is quieter ) - which we accepted; but when we got there we saw two other groups who had dogs in the restaurant area ( they were not access dogs based on the harnesses/leads ) - so not a perfect start. Service was OK but they were rushed of their feed , so they need more bodies to cover tables. The food was disappointing to say the least - the F&Chips were good, veggie burgers fine but the fish curry and the chickpea and squash veggie dish was tiny , it would have been small for a starter. The very nice waitress compt it , so we weren’t charged which is appropriate but the point is we would rather have had what was requested. So all in all not great, at least the beer was good.

I was a little disappointed by my beef Sunday lunch. Normally the Hare & Billet serves excellent food but today was something of an off day. The beef roast was pretty bland, with not much taste to the gravy and I strongly suspect that the roast potatoes had been reheated from the previous week. You can often judge a roast by the quality of the spuds and on this occasion they were pretty grim. Services was good as always but I'm looking forward to better overall experience next time.

Usually have a great time at The Hare and Billet. The staff are ALWAYS wonderful. Professional, fun and friendly. Sadly with an upcoming change of menu and a supplier issue, the food choices were so limited and I couldn’t find anything on the menu to keep my kids happy. Admittedly the bread and butter was gorgeous and we ended up ordering three lots!! But that doesn’t count towards a balanced meal! My suggestion would have been to have been completely upfront as to the dearth of options (no beef/steak/red meat options). The adult meals were good. Chicken Kyiv does need way more garlic but the garlic green beans were phenomenal. Vegan burger was passable but a little disappointing when the beef option had been so looked forward to. So ambience, service and banter all 10/10 but communication about limited menu options needed.

I booked a table on a Sunday evening on a bank holiday weekend, only to be told when we sat down that they had sold out of majority of the meals. It left myself and guests feeling disappointed and hungry. Staff were dismissive, unapologetic and unbothered so we left to find an alternative place to eat. After a similar experience the first time I booked, I will not be back again.

Have been here for a roast a few years back and loved the Sunday roast so I rebooked to come back with my family. Was really disappointed. I had the chicken roast. No seasoning on food / way too much gravy the plate was drowning. Definitely lacking on the sides. Was given 2 potatoes, teaspoon of bread pudding, maybe 2 carrots. I have definitely had better for the price I’ve paid. A shame really.

I went to the Hare and Billet with my partner for a Sunday Roast after he had ran the London Marathon. I had been a couple of weeks prior with a friend and although the restaurant was so dark we could barely see each other, we had a nice meal. I was however told just prior to attending this time that the hygiene rating had just been reduced to a 2 so was slightly concerned however thought that it would probably make things better as they would want to increase this rating. Unfortunately this was the worst roast dinner I have had in a long time, the plate was so full of gravy it slopped all over my lap when I tried to cut the food, the veg was tasteless and the meat was all fat. The cauliflower cheese, which we paid extra for despite being told that it has been taken off the menu earlier in the day due to being of poor quality, was awful. Tasteless and watery. I told one of the waitresses about the meal when she asked why I hadn’t eaten anything and instead of taking the items off of our bill, she just said I should have said something sooner. It is such a shame as it has tainted my opinion of the pub and I won’t be returning any time soon.

Had a table booked for a birthday and was initially excited by both the website and the menu link in the booking confirmation e mail. With 12 real ales on offer and a menu full of really delicious looking starters, mains and sides. Upon arrival it was clear that there was only 1 cask ale with no more being brought on. As a cask ale lover this was pretty disappointing. Then we noticed the menu was greatly reduced and told of a couple of items that weren't available. We were pretty disappointed to say the least and made arrangements to eat elsewhere. Sadly I;ll have to answer No to would I recommend as I couldn't really begin the experience let alone recommend it.

Perfect Sunday roast dinner - no complaints there. Granted it was Mother's Day so they were super busy. We were the second table in the dining area to be seated but were completely ignored- no menus, no drink orders, no one came to speak to us until I raised my hand. Ambience was not great due to all the screaming babies. Lastly the bill was wrong when they charged extra for dessert which should have been included in the set lunch menu. It was a disappointing experience.

Most items on the menu were not available due to a supplier issue. This would have been known prior to service but no warning was given meaning that by the time we’d ordered a drink and started to look at the menu, it was too late to go elsewhere for my birthday lunch or ditch the outing altogether. On top of this the waiter was rude and whilst I have had an emailed apology from the manager who seems very pleasant and professional, most people cannot afford to eat out as regularly as before so these occasions are special and I’m sorry to say The Hare and Billet did not deliver. I won’t return or recommend.

Late Sunday lunch booked. Service on arrival, and starters all good, charming wait staff, good food. Downhill massively from there. Roast beef x 2 ordered. Turned up stone cold. Cauliflower cheese side dish luke warm at best. All returned to the kitchen, only to reappear having clearly been microwaved, and badly, in that some of the meal was most certainly warmer, with other items on the plate reminding cold. The cauliflower cheese was hot mush, and as a result was mostly, after attempting a couple of mouthfuls, inedible. Will not be returning.

Had been my visit list for some time, knowing how popular the place is for Sunday Roasts. Had dinner in the restaurant on Valentine’s… strange atmosphere with the pub quiz simultaneously running that night and the staff were polite and friendly, but very stretched. Took 45 mins from sitting down until we were seen to have our orders taken… Food was nice, but by the time our orders were taken, a lot of things were off the menu. Being allergic to shellfish drastically limited the options. I’d visit again but perhaps not in a hurry for dining.

We pre booked for 7pm Sunday, we arrived , got our table, we ordered our drinks and the main meal, Pork and apple Sunday roast. We were just settling in, when within 5 minutes the dinners arrived, without the wine. The dinners themselves were lukewarm, we attempted to eat as we did not want to complain as it was meant to be a celebration night. However the food was colder underneath the top layer. The Pork, as it wasn’t warm was rubbery. We were not revisited by the waiter for about 20 mins, when he came back he asked if everything was ok, we said not. He was very apologetic and offered us a discount and desserts on the house. However, by then the event was ruined. We were also then charged a service charge, which I declined to pay. We ended up paying £65 for a bottle of wine, a pint of guiness and two partly eaten unappetising dinners. Very disappointed.

Nos fuimos a dar un paseo esta tarde y dando vueltas por el pub en busca de comida a un precio razonable. Tuve la hamburguesa (que viene con cebollas asadas con rojas y pimientos rojos y pesto) de el halloumi a la con una orden de patatas fritas y mi marido decidió combinar los principiantes y a los lados y tenía morralla de crujientes rústicas con patatas fritas y ensalada. Nuestras dos comidas juntos cuestan un total de 20 libras y una pinta de coca cola Light era £2.50 , muy razonable para la zona.
