The best restaurants in England

A “wow” experience. Most certainly the best restaurant in Brighton and well beyond. Exquisite food, beautifully presented, top service, class surroundings; Amarillo deserves a Michelin star!!

We have been meaning to try Bab to go for ages & finally got around to it tonight. We got a bowl each & dumplings to take away, & some Kimchi to try to. It was so beautiful - I cannot decide what my favourite part of the dish was! The lady who served us was so friendly, knowledgeable & passionate about the food. We cannot wait to become regulars!

What a wonderful place. We went for breakfast (8 of us) and loved it. The food was delicious (cooked breakfast), the service excellent and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Excellent with allergies. The decor was retro which gave it a great feel. The sale of local products was an added bonus. We will definitely be visiting again before we finish our holiday. A cheeky piece of cake was taken away too. All the cakes looked delicious. The Lupin lady 😀

We visit Central Park café in Chelmsford at least once a week. It’s a perfect stop off for a coffee and a bite to eat as part of our dog walking routine in the park. The food and drink is always top notch, and they have an offer for the doggies too - from puppaccinos to sausage pots - and also bake amazing pupcakes (which I order every year on my doggies birthday as a little treat for her and her furiends). This is a really special place. It has such a family atmosphere and the staff are always so friendly.

Hired the Strawberry Teapot for Afternoon tea on Sunday 1st for my uncle’s 80th birthday. Was a breeze to organise. India and the staff were helpful with allergies and vegetarianism and the food was lovely! A delicious afternoon tea at The Strawberry Teapot combined with a trip down the river with the lovely people at the Stour River Trust made for a perfect day! Thank you!

Oh, where do I even begin with Scott’s Tea Room? It’s a delightful gem hidden in the heart of the village—and, let’s be honest, once you catch a glimpse of Scott himself, you won’t be thinking about tea. Imagine a cozy little haven, with the aromas of freshly baked scones mingling in the air, all served by a man who looks like he just stepped out of a Viking movie set. Yes, Scott is hunky, bald, and bearded, and honestly, it should be illegal to make tea and cakes while looking that good. The tea selection? Impeccable. The cakes? Life-changing. But it’s the service that’s the real star here. I mean, this guy pours tea like it’s a ritual handed down through generations of ruggedly handsome warriors. Scott can bring out a Victoria sponge like he’s presenting Excalibur, and somehow, the cup of Earl Grey tastes better because he poured it. Need sugar with that? Just catch his eye—trust me, it’s the only sugar you’ll need. If you’re passing through the village, make it a priority to stop here. Come for the tea, stay for the Scott. And if he happens to flex while pouring your milk? Well, that’s just a bonus.

Ice cream was of very good quality and was proper gelato. Lots of people serving so queue moved fairly quickly. Was quite hard to find as it’s covered in scaffolding. Only downside was that there is only one table to sit and eat at and it was already full

Popped to London before heading to the Dutch F1 and stopped here. oMG the portion sizes, the people, the food, the prices all absolutely incredible. The best breakfast I've ever ever had. What a gem of a place go there go now it's amazing

Haven’t been here for a while, as we don’t live here. It’s always a pleasure to visit this fantastic eatery. Always a lovely vibe, beautiful food and great service. The tastiest poke bowl ever.

Great wines, lovely platters and cocktail. Great service, very helpful on choices. Highly recommended.

What an amazing concept! Beautiful venue , such a warm and relaxed atmosphere , coupled with outstanding food and spot on service! A truly special dining experience from these professional restaurateurs. The introduction of the courses and the source of the ingredients by Steve adds to the enjoyment of the food! Set Menu, bring your own and pay in advance , means the evening flows without distraction . We will be back for sure!

Wonderfully tasty food in a cafe that is beautifully arranged and welcoming. Great coffee, service with a smile and dog friendly. Look forward to many future visits.

Otra comida encantadora en QM. Comida deliciosa, gran servicio y excelente relación calidad-precio. Toma tu propia bebida. Siempre una cálida bienvenida y sin prisas.

Took my nieces money as a deposit for a cake and now won’t answer the phone or messages to her. My niece gets married in a week and has now been left without a cake. How can you do this to people???? You should be ashamed.

We have been waiting to come here for a good while and so were very pleased to try the festive menu. Service is very friendly and slick; the decor is simple and elegant and, most importantly, every course is delicate, delicious and beautifully presented. You get what you pay for. Our only criticisms are that all of the savoury courses were served warm to tepid. And, it was extremely (and I do mean extremely) noisy in there. I realise that this is hard to control, but it was so loud that we could barely hear each other speak and we were practically shouting across the table. So, it is worth bearing in mind that it is certainly not the place for a quiet and intimate meal. That said, definitely worth a try.
