The Herne TavernSister pub to The Palmerston on Lordship Lane, The Herne Tavern is quite a different offering and is ideally suited to families with its large outdoor area and climbing frame which gets the thumbs up from parents who want to enjoy a pint. And, with this being East Dulwich, there are plenty of them around. But as well as being the best family pub in the area, The Herne Tavern also has a large bar and separate (more sedate) dining area serving above average food for this kind of setting. They also have an outdoor 'barn' (the former games room) which is available for private parties - birthdays, weddings and large functions. But The Herne really comes into its own when the sun shines and the punters spill out into the garden at the back. Just across the road from Peckham Rye Park, it's an ideal location for a meal with friends and the kids after a trip to the park.
