The best restaurants in England

Visited today for the first time, what a lovely piece of chocolate cake and a delicious bowl of soup, made very welcome, will certainly be back when next in the area

We were staying the night in the village and rang ahead to check they would be doing food as we didn't want to get stranded without anything for dinner. They were helpful on the phone and friendly in person. We got pizza to takeaway and a very quick drink whilst we were waiting. The pizza was very good indeed and if we hadn't been knackered we'd happily have had a longer visit.

Nicely air conditioned on a hot muggy day, this cafe is so much more than a place to feel comfortable in. The coffee is exceptional and so reasonably priced. A brilliant choice of GF cakes too. We ate local sausage roll and toasted haloumi roasted veg and pesto sandwich. All delicious

All round pleasurable experience today. Sunday lunch was excellent. Fresh, hot, plentiful food with thoughtful little added extras. Served by friendly, efficient volunteers. We will be back!

Excellent food and great service! Food was as authentic as it gets. Better than any fancy restraunt and even better than some places in Pakistan! Would highly recomend this place over any other place around. You have to try it!!

So lucky to have these chaps nearby so that we can get some decent sushi. Have recommended to lots of people. Like the previous reviewer, we have also done a sushi making class with them but a couple of years ago now. We went with a couple of friends and had a very jolly evening, drinking prosecco and making/ eating sushi. I think we might have to do it again soon actuality.

Great coffee, amazing stuffed croissants and very friendly service with a great playlist in the background. I would definitely recommend a visit if you're in Chester and looking for speciality coffee.

This restaurant was popular, but,being quite small, has CLOSED at this spot, but HAS MOVED to FORE STREET about 300 yards to the East, near the East Okement River, and its name has changed to " The Allotment ", as it uses food all supplied locally. I highly recommend it for a smiley welcome & good wholesome food. Now sells jams & preserves.

Looking to join a local tennis club so hired a court for an hour one afternoon on a sunday as a guest for my son and I to try it out. Sadly not a good experience. Booking over the phone and initial reception good but on the court we were next to a group of 4 mature men playing a doubles game. My son and I have played for a number of years and are relatively competent players however any time our ball went wide and across their court we were given some pretty nasty looks (despite the fact that we had to return a number of their balls over the hour). I gave my son some tips and a bit of instruction and heard a number tuts and huffs directed our way when I did despite the fact that we heard some pretty colourful language from their court for which we received no apology given that my son is only 9 years old. To be honest it was a very uncomfortable hour and although my son and I did our best to enjoy our game we were made to feel extremely unwelcome by the four men on the other court, who it appeared to me were mature members who didn't like children playing, despite the fact that it is advertised as a family friendly club. When we left the court at the end of our game two of the men looked at us, shook their head and tutted again - I couldn't believe it.As we left the club I decided to mention their behaviour to the young girl on receptio, particularly because my son commented on the men's language, plus I thought she might be as surprised and disappointed as we were. Instead her response suggested it was endemic - she said their attitude and language was because they were playing a game. I suggested that surely the club frowns on that behaviour and she said nothing. I asked if she could feed this back to the management as it has certainly put us off considering joining and she pretty much said and did nothing. So sadly this is not the club for us which is a real shame because on the surface it looks fab, but I think they have some work to do on making it family friendly.

Uno de mis amigos había oído hablar de este lugar y, debido a que estábamos en la zona, quería probarlo. Miré el menú y era muy escéptico - indio se encuentra con italiano; eso podría ir tan mal. ¡Qué equivocado estaba! La comida era deliciosa. Han pensado cuidadosamente en cómo tejer las influencias indias y es el matrimonio perfecto, no forzado. Compartimos un entrante de pollo María sangrienta, que era excelente. Todos teníamos pizzas, que eran celestiales. Incluso las salsas para mojar costra eran increíbles, especialmente la de naga. No te dejes llevar por el concepto de este lugar. Dale una visita y serás recompensado con una comida de primera. Ambiente y personal encantador también

The knead bakery is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect service, the most wonderful food, fast, efficient service, the caramel doughnut put me in a trance, came from Scotland to visit my daughter when I’m back this will be where I first visit!

We had the Sunday lunch. Prawn cocktail to start followed by the Pork and Beef, cauliflower cheese, roasted potatoes, mixed vegetables, stuffing and mixed vegetables. The meat was cooked to perfection and every mouthful was a delight!! Wine was great as was the service and ambience. I can't wait to revisit. Finding somewhere which serves great food is hard at the moment and R&R Bistro is up there with the best!!

We booked a table for a Sunday Carvery and we highly recommend. Great food and great service. Reasonable price too. A lovely treat. We will definately be returning

Agree with previous posts .. a great spot and for me I’d add it was delightful to trip across a gluten free pasty (veggie or meat!!) that was excellent. Trendy, cute, friendly with outdoor booths and deck chairs. Just chill and watch the sea and water sports. ‘It’s ‘Hangtime’ 😁

I was staying in Ipswich for a spa break with friend. We had gone into the town for a shopping spree. As we did not know of anywhere to get a good Sunday roast looked on internet and found Stanley's in Frinton on sea. The welcome, food, atmosphere and staff was amazing
