Visited Pullens on Saturday 21st January 2012. The cod was dry and overcooked. The cassoulet was again dry and overcooked. The wine was overpriced.
All in all a disappointment, and we will not be going back.

We visited Pullens on Saturday 21st January. The cod was dry. The cassoulet was old, tired, and overcooked. The wine was way overpriced.
All in all nothing was value for money.
As ex caterers we were rather surprised to find the gent's toilet had to be accessed through the kitchen area.
We won't be going back.

I agree with Sally. I have eaten at Pullens many times, and have always been amazed by the quality of the food and the friendly service. Especially when you consider the range that they cover. From breakfast through to dinner. The only negative thing that I can say about Pullens is they have not got another restaurant in Crystal Palace, now that I have moved there.

Very average food for that price. I had the roast cod, was dry and tasteless.
It's a shame...

My husband and i just had dinner there, apparently the menu was new. The food was way way below average and frankly i'm embarassed for the chef. I got the steak (which is the most expensive item on the menu),it was swimming in cheap gravy, there was some salad leaves (without dressing) in the soup of gravy and what looked like a pile of patatoes and cream. My husband had the fish, which was equally untasty.
I am truly disappointed in this place. what a shame.
when i told one of the waitresses that the food was rubbish and that i could make it myself she didnt say anything. The other waitress who is english, was lovely.

Lovely lovely lovely lovely lovely lovely...
we had the credit munch deal (you have to book it when booking your table) - 3 course for £15. great food. amazing value. duck confit was just perfect. fig tarte tatin not what i was expecting but utterly delicious. the woman on the phone when I was book also told us to come a little bit before 7 so we could avail of happy hour prices on our wine. so all in all a great deal. Lovely attentive charming service, fab ambience (no music!) - had a lovely local evening

She chose Crab then Duck. I chose Duck then Crab.
The service was first class. Smiles and jokes aplenty.
This was my third visit to Pullens and won't be my last. I haven't left anything there I would just like to go back.
Probably Herne Hill's best eatery.

Small family gathering on Sunday was a very rewarding visit to Pullens. Long table in the window and we variously had starters of mussels (excellent, with bay leaves in the sauce) chicken liver pate (surely home made followed by roast beef - very good portions with lovely "al dente" vegetables, butternut squash risotto, and pan-fried Cornish sand-sloe - absolutely delicious. Puddings were creative and yummy, wines very well priced and all-in-all a great time was had by all, helped by young, friendly staff. Very well done, owner-chef Alan!

I have been coming here on and off for a couple of years now and am a huge fan. The food is wonderful (Springbok in particular was perfectly done and a real treat...I'm a Saffer so I really should know!) the service couldnt have been friendlier and there was a real buzz to the place. Not only that, its a lovely place just to sit and watch the world go by. Yes, the toilets could do with a spruce up and I would like to see a couple more French reds on the wine list, but thats being picky...All in all, I dont think you can go wrong here, whether its a romantic supper or a long, heavy Sunday lunch. Cant recommend it enough.

I can only assume that Friday 5th was in a parallel universe. I have always found that the staff are friendly (and work hard even if the place is chaotically full!) and that the food is extremely well put together and part of an extensive menu. This is not particularly fine dining, there is a proper atmosphere, good music, and conversation if you happen to need some. I know some people will be put off by negative reviews, but please do give it a try - I've been coming here for years and am yet to be disappointed!
