The best restaurants in East Midlands

Food was OK. The menu is quite limited, especially for breakfast, and it's expensive - £6 for a small bacon roll (no additions available eg. Sausage, egg etc) and £6.50 for granola and yoghurt. I think there are better cafés in the area.

What a find just a mile down the road from aeries field! Had dinner there twice, first time had the steak , oh my word!! Next day had the Steak and Ale pie: absolutely delicious and beautiful home cooking. Thank Dhaun (?) and Elle you are defo the A team. Cath and I will be back!

Love Hettie and Sid for wooden toys and personalised gifts.

Such a beautiful setting with friendly, attentive staff. A great menu and the food was really good. We were visiting family in this area and would definitely recommend it.

A friendly pub. Nice that I could take my dog in.

Our first time here…The food was lovely and came out quickly steaming hot .. great service.. we will be back again.. thank you

Absolutely brilliant. Just off the Main Street. Food wholesome Hot chocolate with cream and the works fantastic. Coffee good and economical

Good food,good clean shop,everything top class.

You can easily miss turning,the car park,is in state of unrepair, we entered Dinner,the soups we wanted were unavailable, even though Advertised on Board,I asked for soft eggs,got hard instead, the chips and sausages were nice,the staff were friendly, even though it was midday, it was completely empty, to be honest I am not surprised, it's sadly seen its best days

Italian cuisine at its best! It's my husband's birthday (01 August 2024) and what a treat! We had Calamari Fritti for starters - crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, I had Spaghetti Gamberoni for my main - succulent king prawns, pasta cooked al dente, with a lovely drizzle of white wine sauce, perfumed with garlic, chilli, and colourful cherry tomatoes and parsley. My husband had the Vitello Al Vino Blanco, pan fried escalops of veal, cooked with white wine, garlic and parsley, rounded up with roasted vegetable. And for dessert, Homemade Tiramisu, light and just the right sweetness. I've been to Tonino's three times now (my husband's first) and I definitely recommend it - lovely food, friendly and efficient staff, great atmosphere...

Just had an amazing Sunday Dinner food beautiful staff very friendly and helpful also a guy playing the piano just perfect x WELL DONE TO YOU ALL

Excellent haddock n chips plus mushy peas bread n butter and mug of tea tonight at Ambridges! A great experience in Spilsby at this lovely chipper, highly recommended from all our family! Very reasonably priced and delicious, what more can you want?!

We went here for breakfast at about 10 in the morning. The cafe had no heating on therefore it was quite cold. We wanted the oak cake full breakfast but they had no oatcakes. Therefore we ordered two English breakfasts the portion sizes are very small almost minimalistic for £6.70 each this was overpriced. Drinks were not included with the breakfast so there was then an additional £1.70 for a mug of tea! We asked for a filter coffee but they had none. Overall £17.60 for two people. I will come to Hayfield again but would not come to Rosie Lees again. It’s overpriced for what you get.

We visited today at lunchtime and there were just a couple of people there. Placed our order and paid, we were told that the food would be delivered to the table. My husband said the man cooking was very abrupt and stressed. The food was delivered without the man serving uttering a word, but we enjoyed it and finished. My husband, 'God Forbid' proceeded to approach the counter, wallet in hand and ordered a slice of the cake, which he had seen when we arrived. He returned to our table saying that Mr Grumpy serving was abrupt and he didn't feel he could ask if they had vegan cream! When the cake arrived, it was thrown on the table by Mr Grumpy who again didn't utter a word. Very odd considering we usually get comments such as 'Enjoy!' I said maybe they wanted us to take it away as they were getting busier, our £26 could have been spent elsewhere? As we left we could see other people approaching the counter to place orders, we hope they had a better reception than us! We will not return nor recommend. My advice would be if they don't enjoy dealing with people, then change their career choice!

Came as part of a group of approx 17. We had pre booked for a Christmas meal, and had also given our meal choices ahead of time. The service was terrible/slow in the extreme (As in we were waiting over 1.5 hours between starters and mains - we had booked for a 2pm lunch, our mains came out at 4.30pm). Some dishes were missed, one pre- booked dish they didn't have. The food came out somewhere between completely cold and lukewarm. Unsurprising really when we were told they were plating 45 mins before the dishes started arriving. Some of us had finished before others even had their food on every single course. Even dessert took 20 minutes to arrive after we were told they were ready and on their way. Nothing was particularly tasty either to make the wait worthwhile. Awarding 2 stars as opposed to 1 as the manager(?) didn't charge us full price as we were so unhappy with our experience.
