The best restaurants in England

Excellent small plates food, just perfect before the show. Telvin, our waiter, was attentive, very helpful and made us feel special. It was a great start to our evening.

Only had beers. But lovely place to chill with friends

As authentic and high quality shawarma and Broasted Chicken as could be. Not distinguishable from the best in the Mediterranean. Really worth our long trip to go there.

A waste of time I’m sorry …. Just missed to take a photo on the menu but the selection is not for the best if you are craving a Pilipino food. Please be honest of what you present in your web, or many people time be wasted go and look for the place only to find out that it’s horrible!

I went to the Portsmouth Arms with a group of friends for late night food. This is one of those quirky little gems hidden in the countryside that delivers great food and has fantastic hosts. The new owners, Heather and Tim, made us completely welcome and were on point with their service. Good old fashioned food at great prices and cheap ale on tap made the evening even better. If you visit make sure to ask the owners about the history of the building. They will keep you on the edge of your seat for hours with its rich heritage and incredible story dating from the late 1400s to modern day. I'll definitely visit again.

Review written on 7 October 2021: I have been a customer of AtariYa in Kingston for many years ever since the shop originally opened, but my visit yesterday with a friend was most disappointing. In fact, we were so disgusted that we walked out. My friend and I were both wearing masks. I have a Japanese family and I have lived, worked and travelled widely in Japan for over 45 years and have friends who run top quality sushi restaurants in Tokyo and Narita so I do know proper Japanese food. My first disappointment was the lack of sushi Bento boxes. Previously, there has always been a really good selection of excellent quality all freshly made but on this visit there was very little on display and all looking rather dull. Apart from the lack of stock, possibly caused by the present worldwide delivery problems, I was disappointed to see items which appeared to be Japanese but were not actually made in Japan. That is extremely misleading. Inspection of some of the nori seaweed packets showed that they were produced in China, similarly, some items in the freezer which were made in Vietnam. I asked the male fishmonger (not Japanese) behind the sashimi counter about this but got no answer. Of course it is not impossible to produce good quality food which is not made in its original country but I go to a Japanese food shop to buy genuine Japanese food, not food produced somewhere else. I do not eat anything from China because I do not trust their production methods due to at least one scandal in Japan involving the use of pesticides on imported Chinese products. At the sashimi fish counter at the rear of the shop there seemed to be a much smaller selection than there used to be. I ask the male fishmonger, in Japanese, for a particular fish but he didn't understand me so I repeated just the name of the fish (shime saba) and he did point to the correct fish. However, although he was wearing a mask, it was pulled down, thus exposing his nostrils. A female staff member then appeared, also wearing a mask but also not covering her nose. I asked both of them why their masks were not correctly positioned but they just smiled (I don't know why) and pulled the masks up to cover their noses but it was too late. I told them that it was disgusting to be breathing all over raw fish while the Covid pandemic is still continuing but there was no proper reply from either. These two staff members were not Japanese and the very nice Japanese gentleman who has always previously run the fish counter was not present. Two English men then came in and looked at the sushi bento items but neither was wearing a mask even while leaning over the products. The products were in plastic boxes but that is not the point. It is absolutely unimaginable that any Japanese person, either customer or staff, would lean over any food, particularly raw food, in a virus pandemic without wearing a proper mask. In Japan, staff who are preparing food in public view normally wear masks, gloves, hats and a proper uniform but, of course, this is England. I absolutely cannot imagine what Japanese people think of such low standards. I complained once before about the poor attitude of an English staff member in this shop and received an apology from AtariYa. Obviously, poor hygiene is even more important so I will be writing again to the AtariYa management. It is very important that shops purporting to be Japanese do actually give a proper good impression of their products. Very few non-Japanese people have any idea what real Japanese food is and what I saw in the shop yesterday was simply not acceptable. Other reviewers on this site have made similar criticisms. I will never go to this shop again. Nor will my friends.

¡Qué lugar tan increíble para visitar! Visitamos para música en vivo en un sábado por la noche, lo que un ambiente fresco, amable y acogedor. Brownies y remolinos de canela eran la perfección! Volveremos al 100%

The Cajun chicken sandwiches are amazing and such good value. Great customer service too, definitely the best cafe in Brighton!

Really lovely Turkish cafe next to Central Station. Fantastic menu of breakfast, brunch, lunch and Turkish food. I had the Turkish meze for £12.95 and it was delicious and plentiful! Great place for coffee and a sweet treat too!

Solo me pasé por Uber y vi el cartel. Qué lugar tranquilo y bien administrado encantador. El café era genial y rubia era exuberante. Totalmente encontrarlo en las llamadas

Visitado hoy con nuestros perros, sándwich de primera categoría y café, el servicio fue muy bueno de hecho, el personal muy amable y trajo agua para nuestros perros, muy amable y un gran almuerzo durante todo el día

Sadly this place has closed permanently

David and I had not managed to get to the Flying Cloud Cafe for at least three years. We were much relieved to see it was still there and the cakes were delicious - Kim's Apple Drizzle Cake for us this time. It won't be three years this time!

Good lord, I would never have gone in without a recommendation from a local but i am so glad we did. The most excellent service and the food was amazing!

Very welcoming and friendly staff, food is good, prices kind of high but worth it.
