The best restaurants in East Midlands

Just had a fantastic Sunday Lunch. Very nice. The Roast Beef was superb. Well done to the chef Michael and the rest of the team at The Star. 😊👍

I think the reviews of some have been unfair. This chip shop has improved recently. We are locals and long time customers when Steve used to own the chippy. We last visited on the first weekend of July, the chips were delicious and we're enjoyed by all our friends. I would give the Admiral another go if you haven't been for a while- I think you will enjoy it!

A lovely old pub with excellent bitter at a very reasonable price.

Hands-down the best Chinese in Towcester. Cash only and no delivery but worth it. Helped with gluten free options too.

First time I've been to this cafe. Pleasently surprised. Very clean and friendly. Worth a visit if your in Mansfield Ordered just a cup of tea and it was served in less than 5 minutes. Very impressive

The staff are really welcoming and the service is excellent. The ambience and tasteful décor compliment everything and i would say one of the best cafe's or bistro been to in a while. We travelled from Belper which is a town blessed with great eateries. No 4 ranks highly with all of the cafes here and we will visit again! Great value for money and excellent food and coffee, thanks again!

Chose to eat here based on Tripadvisor reviews. A lovely Indian restaurant in the heart of Hathersage, with an extensive menu & all very reasonably priced. Can highly recommend.

Consistently high quality food, made and served by friendly staff. Varied range of dishes that never disappoint. Best in Retford.

Decided to try the Canal Inn for a birthday meal on a Sunday whilst staying locally on holiday. All 3 of us chose the roast pork which was delicious a very reasonable price. Nice surroundings good service. Would recommend booking.

I have been to Hyssop while it was on High Street West, and then under its new name and premises, Hyssop and the Hare on High Street East. We had the chef's choice menu on an early Friday evening. The food is outrageously well priced given the quality. The pork belly and cabbage in particular was some of the best food I've ever tasted. One of my party commented that it was better than the pork belly at the Hand and Flowers. I can well believe it. The focaccia was unparalleled. Dessert was a pleasingly large slab of deliciously balanced sticky toffee pudding. I prefer the cosy environment and atmosphere that is the new venue, to feel so relaxed while enjoying such high quality food makes for a wonderful experience. The vibes are immaculate. The house red is excellent and we enjoyed a round of superb martinis. The service is warm and friendly, Mia is a delight and really enhances your experience. The waiting staff were knowledgeable about the food and could readily answer questions about the dishes. There is a £20 pp deposit, which is unavoidable and understandable these days, as is the apparently strict enforcement. I am so glad that after the devastating fire Glossop gets to continue to enjoy such an extraordinary offering. I look forward to trying the Cosy Thursdays menu.

We were so pleased that merrimans has startet take outs again. We ordered two meals which were ready on time, just the right portion size, perfectly cooked and delicious to eat at a reasonable price. The menu is extensive and is bound to be popular with discerning diners. We highly recommend.

Foods good, just don't expect much compared to other shops.

Great place,relaxing atmosphere and friendly.sunday carvery brill.nigel + tina

Went for the first time, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and the food was absolutely fantastic. Certainly be going again.

Usually amazing food, never had a bad meal in years. Tonight the battered mushrooms were hard and uncooked with soggy batter, beans were stone cold and had to be microwaved after a 4 min drive home. Very small portion of chips. Usually enough to feed two of us but barely enough for one. Hopefully just a one off.
