Perfectly Crafted Sunday Roast

Experience our popular Sunday roast at North Wing restaurant, Downham Hall. Located near Billericay, Chelmsford, and Wickford, our 2 AA Rosette awarded restaurant offers traditional Sunday lunch in our historic Georgian manor house. Our talented chefs showcase the best of local and seasonal produce, preparing everything from scratch to create Sunday roast dining at its best.

Our Sunday Roast Menu

Our Sunday roasts change subtly with the seasons, celebrating the very best of local produce. Beautifully prepared using the freshest ingredients, our roast options may include dry-aged ribeye, corn-fed chicken, rack of pork, leg of lamb, or our thoughtfully crafted nut roast.

Each Sunday roast is served with all the traditional trimmings: golden duck-fat roast potatoes, creamy cauliflower cheese, beautifully risen Yorkshire pudding, and seasonal vegetables sourced from nearby Essex farms.

Begin with a carefully crafted seasonal starter, then finish with a classic British dessert such as sticky toffee pudding with ice cream, chocolate fondant, or apple crumble tart with custard. For those with more savoury tastes, a selection of British and French cheeses is also available.

We welcome guests of all ages to enjoy Sunday lunch at Downham Hall. Whether you’re gathering with family or celebrating a special occasion, our Sunday roast is served in a warm, relaxed setting, perfect for enjoying good food and great company. 

A dedicated children’s Sunday lunch menu is available for younger diners, and our team is happy to accommodate dietary requirements and allergies—simply let us know when booking. Children are welcome to enjoy our children’s play area, nestled at the bottom of our grounds.
