About The Palmerston

The Palmerston restaurant in London’s up-and-coming East Dulwich is a pub and dining room that’s not only a local favourite, but also an award-winner with an AA rosette awarded every year for six straight years. The Palmerston offers fine dining in an informal, pub environment accompanied by a wine list sourced from around the world. The friendly, knowledgeable staff is worth mentioning up front, too, as their swift expertise adds an agreeable hum to the dining room. Head Chef Jamie Younger, formerly of Bibendum, takes excellent, seasonal British ingredients then uses his creative energy to present them in traditional mode or with flavours drawn from the Mediterranean and the East. The Palmerston’s wood-panelled dining room with its leather banquettes, open fire and unmatched wooden seating is a gorgeous place to enjoy this fine food and if you need distraction, there’s a changing display of shows by local artists.

My fiance and I went for a meal at The Palmerston in East Dulwich. As we weren't all that hungry we shared all three courses: scotch broth, oxtail risotto and fig pudding with brandy sauce. The starter was a bit bland but the main and dessert were fantastic. Service, wine and atmosphere were also good. It came to £50 so if we had ordered a separate starter, main and desert each it would have been close to £100 which was a bit alarming.

Palmerston, Lordship Lane SE22. Saturday night and busy. Good service and really extensive menu (including calves brain salad!). We had a very good evening.

We will definitely be visiting The Palmerston in East Dulwich again! Every dish from the modern English/French style menu was cooked to perfection. Our group sampled a couple of starters & desserts between us, all excellent. Staff are attentive & friendly, the atmosphere is nice with all of the tables occupied all evening & the wine list offered lots of options. Only shame was a two-hour turnaround on the table, luckily we were just about ready to leave-albeit reluctantly!

An pleasant gastropub in Dulwich with basically good, hearty food. Lamb was very tender - main reservation is that everything seems to be very rich and portions are huge, so we left feeling a bit bloated. Still, it's a nice place with an extensive wine list.
