The best restaurants in East Midlands

Exceptional margherita, 10/10, definitely would recommend. Maurizio’s is one of the best Italian restaurants in Leicester!

Very good meal, took photo before getting veg

Really lovely tea room, loved the vintage vibe!! Beautiful food great service highly recommend

Closed. 😭 A cosy cafe with friendly and attentive staff. Indoor and outdoor seating in a quiet courtyard conveniently located just off the high street. Nice breakfast and lunch menus available; and of course a good selection of cakes and deserts. Well behaved dogs are allowed inside and outside; water and complimentary treats offered. Parking just a couple of minutes walk away; toilet / baby-changing facilities on-site (ask staff for key). Card payments accepted. Highly recommended.

Called in for a much needed cuppa and full English on a Sunday morning. Quiet when we arrived, quick, efficient service good prices, really enjoyable breakfast. A bit of a throw back to the old school greasy spoon cafe, I'm not saying that as an insult though. If you're wanting decent, old fashioned English cafe food at a good price, I highly recommend.

Always a pleasure, great food, great service and great company. Thanks bob.

The manager was really great, passionate and happy to explain aspects of the menu, I went for the venison loin which was unbelievably tender and full of flavour!

Bloody good food. Incredibly cheap.

Went for Christmas do, 50 pound per person, in the marquee, 3 course meal, the food was amazing, hot and tasty, drinks a little pricey at bar, music and entertainment was OK, the only negative thing was the dirty toilets really poor. But staff were great, food was great, well worth the money great night

Everything about our visit today was perfect. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that we had a fantastic time. The food was absolutely amazing too. The Red Lion offers everything that you could hope for in a pub, even offering treats and fresh water, should you bring your dog. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Great little Indian local to Donnington park. Not licensed but happy to bring your own or even bring in from pub next door. Friendly staff and good food.

Absolutely love this place. I moved to Thrapston a few weeks ago and this has quickly become my regular go to. The owner and all of the staff are amazingly friendly and welcoming. The food is scrummy as is the coffee. My dog absolutely adores it here too (particularly the sausages ;-)). I can assure everyone that the staff ALL wash their hands thoroughly if they pet any dog before touching anything else or serving anyone. Scrump and I (Candice) can’t recommend Bennett’s enough.

would love to see a delivery service to long sutton and sutton bridge in future.

Takeaway food, great taste and the quality is okay too

Lovely peaceful cafe for lunch. Great meat free offerings in a light, bright modern place
