The best restaurants in England

The food is amazing ,as well as the customer service. BEST VEGAN food in Croydon .

Good size and thickness of fish. Chips were nicely cooked and still soft. Not the cheapest but definitely one of the best in the area. Definitely worth the extra cost for size and quality. Usually cut the fish in half and get two meals out of it with a round of bread and mushy peas.

Great place, we were sent for breakfast from the local inn, and presented with the best breakfast we’d ever been offered! Relaxed and friendly atmosphere, well used by the locals, (always a good sign) dog friendly - a real treat from beginning to end - many thanks

Was lovely but not enough snacks would have lik a toasted teacake but not on menu opted for cake it was delicious not too crowded staff friendly and helpful

The lunch we had at Cradle was nearly sublime. Reassuringly one choice only re starter and main. The Carrot & Apple soup was rich and deeply good; the accompanying bread and pickled salad a wonderful treat. Then later, as utterly made to order, the main. So many ingredients harmonising and nourishing …Franky, best lunch in memory

The worst food on the island and horrible rude staff. Made me very uncomfortable. I couldn't finish my meal it was so awful and it also made me quite ill the next day. Avoid at all costs!!!

Firstly. I have had several lunches here all of superb quality at an exceptionally good price. This visit I had a burger and chips which was amongst the best available in Basingstoke at a very competitive price, it couldn't have been improved on, see the photos. Secondly, the fact that this is a wonderful charity for training individuals with learning disabilities. Most of the staff are in training, gaining priceless skills and confidence, though this is barely noticeable, indeed some customers I got chatting to were completely unaware of the ethos behind the cafe. In summary amazing food, great service and by visiting you will be supporting an amazing charity. It is a lovely social cafe, providing, food, a meeting place, and training. On top of all this It is also. Dog friendly.

Met my mum, sister and baby niece (and dog) for brunch. The food was delicious and freshly cooked. Service was quick and friendly with nothing being too much trouble. Gluten free options available. Would there again. Thank you 😊

Jerk chicken and curried mutton were both outstanding. Great portion size!! The rice and peas were perfect

Fui a ver a mi mamá para tomar un café y el caballero detrás del mostrador habló con nosotros y tener un poco de charla. Tenía un nervio atrapado y me ofreció un paracetamol para ayudar con el dolor y como siempre el café es fantástico. Siempre un gran lugar para visitar.

After a long walk we arrived just before closing. We asked if they were still serving coffee and they welcomed us in. Very friendly staff. Lovely cafe. Scones delicious. Would definitely go back

My husband and I had two amazing vegan roast dinners (the best we've ever had in our 8+ years of being vegan), followed by delicious desserts. The portions were generous, decor cosy, staff super friendly and our dog was very welcome too. Couldn't recommend more and just wish we didn't live so far away (just a holiday stop), otherwise we'd be back all the time!

I have visited Polow several times now with the family, the food is fantastic and the family run atmosphere is a pleasure to be around. I would highly recommend for anyone who enjoys Persian food or anyone who has never tried Persian food.

Tasty food. But overpriced for poached egg. Empty table next to us hadn’t been wiped, and waitress took too much interest in the screen when I was asked to add 10, 15 or 20% service charge.

Such a disappointing experience. Very expensive (£11 for soup and one slice of bread which didn't come with any butter) and even more money for a "hotpot" which was saag aloo. The saag also was basically overcooked potato, which was absolutely tasteless with hardly any spinach and, again, a small slice of bread with no butter (many vegan butters could have been provided!).
