The best restaurants in United Kingdom

We visited here after reading great reviews. Regrettably what we have just experienced for £60 has been appalling. Two dishes arrived before drinks - they were actually intended for another table it later transpired. The seafood cocktail was barely defrosted seafood mix in a watery ‘sauce’, the waiter had no idea what the dishes were, the cocktails took forever to arrive..it goes on. When I complained I was told the chef was away and they were trying to cover things. They were failing miserably. I’m genuinely anticipating the possibility that we will have food plus from tonight. Do not believe the photos before on here - we saw nothing like those dishes tonight.

Food was excellent, cooked to perfection. Great choice and really good value. Service was friendly and efficient. The.decir is really cool. Love the fire screen with the Halloween touch and the wall paintings are fab.

Firstly an apology to Waz, I'm sorry that it has taken me so long to write a review for your bistro, and more over I'm sorry the adventure has ended; albeit a new one is now in motion. I came here at the request of a good friend of mine, and fellow food blogger back in December 2022. I was told that the chef knew his stuff, and that the food was very reminiscent of the street food cafes we had visited during our time in Morocco, and Southern France; my friend wasn't wrong. I ordered a starter of Calamari Fritters, served with a Garlic & Saffron Mayo, for the main a Roasted Quail accompanied by dauphinoise potatoes and a fig sauce, and for dessert my go to Christmas Pudding. My first impression of Waz's Bistro is that its a tidy affair, on par with some of the smaller bistros you would normally encounter in the city. The staff although young, were attentive, and if they were unsure would ask the kitchen. The wine list was hit and miss; so I stuck to dealers choice and ordered a cocktail. The starter arrived around the fifteen minute mark from order, not withstanding the location; wasn't to bad of a ticket time. The Calamari Fritters were crispy on the outside, and the Calamari succulent when chewed. The mayo added a nice bite as the garlic added a subtle dimension, the saffron was perfectly measured, and like the garlic added an extra dimension to the dish. The main course was roughly ten minutes from when the young chap took my entre plate away, again ticket times are clearly a priority to the chef. The Quail was unfortunately a bit drier than what I would have normally liked, but still ticked all the boxes regarding taste and presentation. The potatoes were just that, nothing abusive to the taste buds, nor offensive to the eye. The Fig Sauce though was something to behold, perfectly balanced, and complimented the quail beautifully; bravo Chef, Bravo! Now to the disappointment. After my plate was taken away, I was left for roughly twenty minutes before what in my eyes was a travesty. The Christmas Pudding was undercooked, and even though it was perfectly fruited, it was a trudge to eat it. The bill was thirty-five pounds excluding the cocktail, and to be honest that's cheap considering other Bistros. It was overall a great night out So how do I rate Waz? More so now that he's closed his doors. I believe a nod of respect to his talent, and acknowledgment of all he did for the industry in Bromsgrove is a good place to start Bon Chance Waz.

Mediocre food and terrible attitude from the owner who refused to honour our reservation. Kept waiting for 20 minutes for food that tasted as bad as the meal we had on the flight over. Salt by name, salty by attitude.

Used to love this place and considered it a hidden gem and would pick up or order takeaways every few weeks. One time I was put off all their pizzas because the 2 I ordered both came covered in a bitter oily substance - likely a rancid oil, and one of them tasted suspiciously fishy even though it wasn’t meant to have any fish on it. Then I kept ordering only their risottos which I still enjoyed, but the last time I ordered the dish which cost over £10 came all oily and disgusting too, so I had to abandon this place altogether. Not sure how the quality of the food dropped so dramatically but it was very disappointing.

Lovely venue, great food, our waiter was fantastic thank you Oz.. Would highly recommend this nicely presented restaurant. Thank you

Truly excellent pizza at the Half Moon, Cuxham. Great, friendly service and a lovely pint in Rebellion, too. Go there!!!!

Excellent food, we had fruit scones with ham and cream delicious. lovely coffee served in elegant cups,and very dog friendly

Incredible food. In croyde with a party of 44 people - used Biff for the food on the beach. Arrived hot and delicious. Everyone in the party raved about the food. Later in the week 6 of us visited for Japanese night and again we were not disappointed. So so tasty. So much so we went back for breakfast the next morning. No photos to show because the food was pretty much gone before we thought about it! Wish we lived closer because the food is unreal, but a 10 hour round trip for dinner is probably pushing it 😂

Absolutely fantastic food today as usual. Beautiful lunch and fabulous cheesecake for dessert in wonderful surroundings. Service is great. Well Don Gil and staff.

Great place. Very busy but they found us a table for us out of the way as we have a dog and wanted him tucked away. I had what can only be described as the best, tastiest tomato 🍅 soup I have ever had in my life. It was amazing and sent my comments to the chef that day. Great menu variety and quite a special place .

Small but beautifully appointed restaurant and high quality food at reasonable prices. Very friendly and attentive staff too.

What a wonderful place! We were staying in the area and came here twice. The weather was pretty dreadful but as soon as you walked through the door it was such a warm welcoming interior and the lady who I believe owns it was just so lovely, friendly and very welcoming to two wet walkers and our dog. The coffee was excellent and our dog even got treated to dog biscuits. We shall definitely return... Xx

We had a wonderful time at the K Bar. The drinks were lovely, and the service was exceptional. Special mention to Adrish who went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing evening !

We ordered the scrumptious afternoon tea for two for collection and it was incredible. Not only were the treats amazingly tasty, but the service was excellent and very friendly. Thanks you!!!
