The best restaurants serving ${DEFAULT_CUISINE_TYPE} food in South East

This small place offers fantastic, tasty and good-sized pizzas. We tried the Diavola and the Tartufata, and both were a success, I definitely recommend them. The waiting time was reasonable and the treatment by the staff was very friendly.

Great selection of fish to choose from. Young friendly and engaging front of house team. Had a very enjoyable lunch and look forward to returning. Many thanks ‘Tim’

A Regular for lunch always a good choice friendly prompt service the hot one sandwich is a firm favourite and delicious!

Incredible food, relaxed atmosphere. Well earned 5 stars. Balance of flavours was great. And the the wine pairings were on point too.

We have dined at Marleys for many years, a friendly restaurant serving great food. The menu is a refreshing change from the usual fare. But on our last visit we were shocked at the price of a bottle of wine !! We will continue dining at Marleys but restrict ourselves to wine by the glass or beer.

What an enjoyable evening. We purposely chose to visit Zeno whilst we were in the area and it didn’t fail to impress us. The food was amazing from having mains and desserts and the staff were as friendly and engaging and welcoming. The olives and bread were delightful, thank you so much. An evening to remember. Thank you again, we will certainly be back again as well as recommend you to friends and family. Loraine

Always my choice for light refreshments or afternoon tea! Very accepting to my small dog Mia & Bambi! Lovely staff and good practice of my bsl sign language as deaf. So be patient service can be slow but worth the wait as often he is alone working. A good pot of decaf tea and home baked cakes and scones. Happy to top up jam cream tea at no extra charge. Today , We had cuppa soup and ham salad sandwiches and a panini ….. I had mozzarella tomato and avocado filling , with generous dressed salad garnish . under £15 per person . Very pleasing and charming. Small quaint Bletchingly homely cafe with approx 5 tables so booking recommended only a few tables outside and off street parking .

This has been a favourite lunch spot for myself and my family for a few years now. They've recently had a change of management, and on our resent visit we could see they've been busy decorating and the main room was looking very nice, I much preferred the new decor to the old grey theme. I visited with my son and daughter, and we enjoyed a ploughman's lunch and two jacket potatoes, all beautifully cooked and delicious, and some amazing milkshakes to wash it all down. We were pleased to see the menu still had our favourites on and the service was great as usual. Highly recommended ❤️

Cafe 64 has the perfect combo of delicious food,the friendliest and most delightful staff and a gorgeous range of mostly gluten free cake made locally. The chef is adventurous and as well as serving standard British breakfasts, including veggie options, he also serves up such lovely alternative food. I just ate sweet potatoes, a spicy chutney and a really fresh salad of cucumber, tomatoes, radishes and onion. They also cater really well for gluten intolerant and vegetarian tastes. Yummy

Stunning picturesque location, set in a quiet little lane. The flowers are all in bloom and the restaurants garden area make for a perfect long lazy afternoon of amazing food and ambiance. The food is always 10/10 we have never been disappointed with the quality and culinary skill of Will who is the chef at The Dove. Sophie runs the front of house perfectly and we are always warmly welcomed by them when we cycle up. If you have not been here you MUST!!! The Dove is child, dog, child and disabled friendly it has a home from home feel and we adore it xx Thankyou to the team who work tirelessly behind the scenes to make our visits so enjoyable xx charlie + stuart xx

Quality food and genuinely friendly and helpful staff. Great for a casual evening meal. But beware, the Thupka is hot! 🥵

Lovely clean cafe food was tasty with large portion but the star are tye staff. My teen tipped their hot chocolate the staff couldn't have done enough checked noone was burned cleaned the mess up and gave us a new hot chocolate.

Staying overnight in Crawley, we were craving a substantial breakfast and while I often struggle to find something vegan, my partner was more than happy to go meat-free this time. The only other vegan venue in town has moved over to burgers and poke bowls but Sage offers a Full Vegan breakfast and that's exactly what we wanted! The food is delicious (I personally loved the scrambled tofu) and not a bad price nowadays - £12.95 for the aforementioned scrambled tofu, mushrooms, beans, tomato, hash browns, sausages, and sourdough toast. Another couple of quid and you can have 2 rashers of vegan bacon (which, of course, I did!). The menu also offers various light bites and more filling plates. I'm already planning to drop in on my next way through Crawley, just to try out their mixed kebab grill. And yes, everything is still plant-based! There's a good range of coffees with a couple of specialities (I opted for the Matcha Latte) and a selection of non-dairy milks such as oat, coconut, and soya. Also juices, soft drinks, etc. The venue is nicely decorated in a clean and modern style - there's wood panelling offset by crafty back boards and large shaded lights arching over each table. It has a relaxed and inviting feel to it, backed up by the service, which was friendly and welcoming. It's always nice to have a light-hearted conversation that doesn't feel forced, and this place has that natural charm throughout. In short, this is now one of my favourite vegan cafés, especially being one that caters for us herbivores as well as any flexitarian friends that may want to join us. Situated along the southern end of the historic High Street, it's also a convenient location, so the best of all worlds!

What a fabulous evening! The food was incredible, the atmosphere was amazing and the hospitality was impeccable. Thank you so much Sofia, James and Gabby. It really was a night to remember. Highly recommend.
