The best restaurants in East Midlands

1st time in China red tonight so thought I would just order chicken curry egg Fried rice and salt and chilli wings The guy took my order was lovely I’m a drive away but food still hot when I got home absolutely loved it

Nice stop off for a quick drink on a nice day. Nice little pub, clean and good amount of out door seating.

The food is expensive, so I decided to get by with a milkshake. Unfortunately this was overpriced and also pretty insipid. Would I make an effort to visit again? Sadly, no. I understand that business rents and costs are high in this location, but...

i really hate giving bad reviews but I have to with this place, as my partner and I both felt unwell the next day after eating from here. chips not properly cooked, haddock extremely greasy (and only had due to them not selling cod). really expensive for what it is, 2 large chips, haddock, bread roll and curry sauce for £19. very disappointing experience.

Kebab is really at a high level 🥙💯

Been a regular here for a good few years now, the lattes are excellent The breakfast boxes and cobs are excellent

A small but good pub for locals. Go to quiz night

Albertos @the Chequers in Wellingborough. The best Turkish/Italian restaurant ever!!!, The food was amazing. The home made condiments especially the chilli salza was de lick and the SeaBass and Salmon were not only generous portions but favoursome and then some. Cooked to perfection. The service was fantastic. A real gem in this town. My new go to place anytime I visit. The prices were very reasonable. You have to visit. Thank you for a great day out with family.

Have used this restaurant for years and always the best 👌

Stopped for a game of pool and a pint lovely little pub nice drinks very friendly staff will be going back

Food is freshly cooked, tastes great and very reasonably priced. We'll be back for more!

Traditional pub with a friendly welcome and a good choice of ales 👍.

What a lovely little cafe. I called in here whilst my car was being serviced and was greeted with a warm welcome by all the staff who were great The cafe had a real good feeling to it and sold a multitude of things other than food. The food was cooked well, even the eggs which I am funny about but it was perfect for me, I am a white firm, yellow runny kinda guy. The prices are fair, they will never compare with big pub chains but I am always willing to pay a little extra to keep a local shop in business Probably my only gripe was that it opened a little late for me, but I am an early bird so it is nothing new for me to experience. Would I go again? Definitely, the next time I'm in Ilkeston

Staff were friendly and welcoming, attending quickly despite other customers in front ( who already been served) and food was fresh and tasty didn't wait long for it to be served either great price too

Great place for a cosy drink especially after a walk in the local area, no food but they have regular food nights which are amazing, well worth trying
