The best restaurants in England

I’ve just had the most delicious poulet au vinaigre from the specials menu in the Rose and Crown Hartwell. Paired with a lovely glass of wine and a relaxing atmosphere, it’s exactly what I needed after a busy day at work. If you haven’t popped to the pub since Matt and Michelle have taken over I thoroughly recommend it.

A sandwich bar with some seating inside. A varied menu not just sandwiches. we did have sandwiches which were very nice. the prices were reasonable and the staff very pleasant.

Chose this place as they do Gluten free. Best Gluten free bread I have ever had out. The service was brilliant, with a teapot, tea cups and sauces and tea plates and the shop is a real delight, with some many lovely things to look at. I will defenately go there again if I am over that way. Higly recommend this place.

This is easily the place with the best coffee and pastries in town. In addition they have an amazing deli range of produce. We have always found the team welcoming and friendly and willing to help in any way they can. Unmissable!

Très bonne adresse pour un déjeuner ! Très bon rapport qualité prix, personnel très serviable. Je recommande

Absolutely amazing restaurant with authentic indian food. Our family loves coming here, and we are always welcomed so nicely by the owner. Would recommend to anyone who wants a nice meal!

We ordered the Tuesday special but upsized to get the house specialties. Food was excellent as was the service. The waiter spent time explaining the menu ad offering suggestions and being a Tuesday and early in the evening the owner spent some time talking to us and giving a bit of history. I highly recommend this as one of the best I have been to in quite a while.

My wife and I both had the soup and a sandwich. Both were excellent. The soup was very tasty and the sandwiches on nice thick bread along with salad garnish were substantial. All together a very enjoyable lunch guaranteeing anther visit when next in the area.

Lovely coffee, my friend had the avocado on toast with a poached egg, this was great too, service as always good. A bit chilly even with blankets on so it would be nice if the wood burner was on!

From outside, you probably wouldn’t even considerate. Do. It’s incredible. The margaritas are amazing, ALL the food was delicious, from the nachos to the tacos, including the vegetarian options. The staff our a delight, service is first class. No frills, no fuss, just bloody great Mexican food, done proper well!

For a fussy eater I must say what an incredible experience we had last night. From the moment we arrived the staff were attentive, knowledgeable and really enthusiastic - nothing was too much trouble. The food was absolutely amazing - I had the crab to start and the venison to follow. It literally melted in my mouth. I made a slight tweak to the main which the staff were more than happy to accommodate. The star of the show was the chocolate after eight dessert. Wow wow wow.. what an amazing place - we will be back!!! Thanks to all the amazing staff for an incredible experience

I’ve been here several times and never been disappointed. The food is simple but well presented, fresh and delicious. I am coeliac and my wife is vegan and we never feel short changed with the quality and selection. Also serves great coffee. Staff are friendly and professional.

We’d gone to the Towner to see a particular exhibition, which as it happened, had closed the week before so we settled on a larger - and really rather dreary - exhibition instead. Feeling somewhat deflated we tried to grab a coffee and a snack in the ground floor cafe. It was closed, due to staff shortages. Boo. And this why the Towner dining experience only scored a four from me, I’m afraid. The top floor restaurant seemed to be a little grander than we had planned to use, with a menu that looked a bit, well, esoteric. Still, we pressed on and took the lift up to the top floor to find an attractively laid out room, a friendly waitress and the chance to have pretty much what we might have hoped for in the downstairs facility. But . . the standard was simply outstanding. Scandinavian light cuisine prepared and presented (promptly) with delicacy and gorgeous attention to detail. Thoroughly recommended, but do check exhibition end dates before setting off.

Amazing food excellent service highly recommend this place to anyone left the place very full and satisfied lovely café

A great business who creates the most delicious cup cakes. Used previously for a baby shower and today for a Christening. The cakes look amazing and taste delicious.
