The best restaurants in United Kingdom

I've eaten here several times, and have had the breakfast, and the buffet lunch, both were superb, but I would recommend the buffet as there is always a great selection of interesting dishes. The staff are great, nothing being too much trouble.

Food always good and a great location. Excellent coffee. Pancakes are great for the kids and there are toys to play with.

Absolutely disgraceful establishment. I paid £5 for a smoothie, I sat down and took my laptop out of my bag for the waitress to tell me 'sorry we have a policy that you have to spend £10 to use your laptop'. I said I am not using your wifi, she said it doesn't matter. I then asked for a refund as I said I came her to do my work and no I can't, she then refused. This is blackmail and illegal and I am going to be reporting it to trading standards. I come to Southgate as my son attends a local dance school, I was looking for somewhere to come while I wait and was intending to bring him back to this cafe for lunch afterwards. It's incredibly short sighted of management to have such as an absurd policy and there are no clear signs on the front of the door about this policy. I have worked in cafe's all over the world and I have NEVER come across this kind of blackmail before.

The best quiche I have ever had, gorgeous food, definitely recommend, if I am ever back in Tewkesbury I will be back, Thankyou!

We read good things about Paulette in a Hardens article and decided to dine here when spending a weekend in town. It’s quite small (about 25 covers plus a couple of pavement tables) and has a charmingly intimate French vibe. The front of house team are delightful - friendly and chatty and just the right amount of attention, so they’re always on hand and attentive but without the service feeling overbearing. Quite a short menu but something for most tastes, particularly if you like traditional French cuisine, and my wife enjoyed one of the best Moules Mariniere she’s ever had. My duck croquette starter was tasty and we both had cod as our main course - nicely cooked and we’d just have preferred a little more time between courses. Classic crème brûlée and cheese selection to finish. The wine list is an enjoyable canter through the great French regions and while there are a few international wines to choose from, why would you? We chose a lovely Pouilly Fume with a little help from our waitress and couple of glasses of aromatic sweet wine with dessert. All in all a very enjoyable evening and we’d strongly recommend.

Loved this place! Came across it after a visit to Culross Palace. There were a couple of cafés which were closer but they were either a bit busier/noisier or welcomed dogs, which frankly puts me off. So glad we found Rankin's Café! Such a lovely, friendly, sunny place with a warm welcome and superb food. I had the soup of the day (Scotch broth) with the most delicious bread. A thoroughly enjoyable lunch. Would definitely recommend!

First time I’ve been to this cafe. You get large portions nearly to much for me . Will return. The food and service was 5 * and a nice quiet environment 👍

Dropped in for some lunch with family and what an extensive menu! We all ordered something different and we were all delighted. The sizzling chicken dish was amazing, as was the big belly buster burger with pulled pork and onion ring. We were all stuffed and I’m sad to say, I couldn’t finish it all! I did manage to leave room for the chocolate brownie... oh my word... beautifully presented with fruits and coulis and ice cream. The brownie was warm and gooey. Just heaven! Service was rather slow to be honest, but I forgave this because the food was so good. I plan to go back very soon, just so I can try everything else on the menu. Takeaway would be a fab option, must ask if they would consider this...

Muy buena comida italiana cocinada en casa. El servicio era atento, pero un poco más lento de lo que nos hubiera gustado, por lo tanto, solo 4 estrellas La comida era un cinco; estado de gambas era delicioso, mi esposa tenía la berenjena principal que era excelente, al igual que los desiertos. Muy buena relación calidad-precio. Muy recomendable.

This is a great friendly place, clean and tidy, I was in for lunch with some friends. It is dog friendly for walkers next to walking routes to stop by. I gave it 4 star because when I was in a member of staff was clapping the dogs and never washed their hands afterwards which is unhygienic when handling food when customers have to eat.

Very warm and friendly reception, and just had a lovely refurb.. Both myself and my hubby had a Full Welsh breakfast, which we couldn't fault. Good prices for a good amount of grub. Lovely and clean, we will definitely be going back again.

Café88 is our workplace's chosen destination for the much-awaited Friday breakfasts. In the whirlwind of work life, there's something particularly comforting about their unerring punctuality. Like clockwork, our breakfast arrives at the office every Friday, bang on 9am. This sort of reliability, so consistently maintained, makes Café88 a standout choice. I opt for their breakfast wrap, a tantalising bundle of goodness. It's not your average greasy spoon wrap; it's grilled, not fried! The allure of Café88 extends beyond their amazing food. If you ever get the chance to visit the café itself, you'd instantly understand why it's a favourite among locals. Embodying a bistro-style aesthetic with chic vibes, it's the perfect place to grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the moment. What sets Café88 apart, however, is their exceptional customer service. Every interaction, from order to delivery, exudes courtesy and professionalism, demonstrating their dedication to a top-notch customer experience. To sum up, Café88 hits all the right notes with its tasty food, stylish bistro ambiance, and excellent service. It's our preferred breakfast spot and comes highly recommended for a wonderful start to the day, but they also have much more on offer, and the Afternoon Tea's/Cheese Board's come highly recommended.

The restaurant is now named Vedaa and is under new management with qualified chef from India who prepares genuine Indian dishes full of flavours and aroma. I enjoyed their vegetarian dishes.

Great find while cycling to and from Humphrey Head. Popped in for coffee and came away with delicious butter and yogurt all made with their own milk. Very friendly owner.

Nunca doy un 5 por un asado ya que siempre los encuentro para que no duren como los alimentos caseros. . . . ¡hasta hoy! Pub encantador, gente encantadora y el personal amable y el asado era delicioso - tuve asado de nuez y fácilmente el mejor que he probado! No vamos a las papas jajaja, a todas nos encantan las papas asadas caseras y esto es lo que obtuve. Yum Yum ? Sólo negativo. . . . bueno no hay un jajaja El menú se ve bien con muchas opciones para comedores de carne, vegetarianos y veganos. Estoy deseando que llegue mi próxima visita!
